How it works

  1. Complete a short online visit. Answer health questions on our telehealth partner's secure site. Some treatments need lab work first.
  2. A licensed provider reviews it. They decide whether Tirzepatide Injection is safe and appropriate for you and may message you with questions.
  3. If prescribed, it ships to you from a licensed U.S. pharmacy, with ongoing check-ins and refills through your provider.

Treatment is not guaranteed. NVO Health is not a healthcare provider. Care is provided by independent licensed providers who alone decide whether you are eligible and whether any treatment or prescription is medically appropriate. Completing an intake or paying a fee does not guarantee a visit, a prescription or a particular medication. Availability varies by state and patient. Not for emergencies: call 911. See the Telehealth Consent.
Compounded medications are not FDA approved. FDA does not review compounded medications for safety, effectiveness or quality. They are prescribed only when an independent licensed provider decides they are appropriate for you, are dispensed by a licensed pharmacy, and may become unavailable as FDA guidance, pharmacy policy and state law change.
