GLP-1 therapy is everywhere right now—and for good reason. Originally developed to manage blood sugar in people with Type 2 diabetes, these medications have become one of the most effective medical weight loss tools available. But is it really worth it? And more importantly, can you afford it?
At Belle, we understand that cost and clarity matter. That’s why we offer compounded versions of Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, making this powerful treatment more accessible—without sacrificing quality or results. Let’s explore the full picture so you can decide if GLP-1 therapy is the right choice for your health goals.
GLP-1 therapy uses a class of medications called GLP-1 receptor agonists to mimic a natural hormone in your body that regulates appetite, insulin, and digestion. This leads to:
The most common GLP-1 medications include Semaglutide (used in Wegovy® and Ozempic®) and Tirzepatide (used in Zepbound™ and Mounjaro®)—but at Belle, we provide compounded formulations that are legal, safe, and more budget-friendly.
GLP-1 medications are not a quick fix—but they’re highly effective when paired with support and consistency. Patients often experience:
When combined with telehealth care and accountability, GLP-1 therapy can help people finally reach and maintain a healthy weight.
Like any prescription treatment, GLP-1s come with potential side effects—most of which are mild and temporary as your body adjusts to the medication. Common side effects include:
In rare cases, more serious complications can occur, which is why it’s essential to work with a licensed provider who monitors your progress and adjusts your dose as needed.
At Belle, we start each patient on a customized plan and provide ongoing support to help minimize side effects and maximize safety.
One of the biggest barriers to GLP-1 therapy? The price. Name-brand versions like Wegovy® and Zepbound™ can cost over $1,000 per month—especially if your insurance doesn’t cover weight loss medication.
That’s why Belle offers compounded Semaglutide and Tirzepatide—custom-formulated with FDA-compliant ingredients and additional additives that allow us to legally dispense them through our telehealth platform.
Why Compounded GLP-1s Are More Affordable:
With compounded medications, we’re able to offer the same active ingredients that power top-tier weight loss results—at a price that works for more people.
If you’ve struggled with your weight for years, seen minimal results from traditional diets, or want a medical solution backed by science, GLP-1 therapy may be one of the best investments you can make in your health.
When you combine expert care, telehealth convenience, and access to affordable compounded medication, the value becomes even more clear.
At Belle, we do things differently:
Our mission is to make effective medical weight loss care available to more people—and help you feel your best without financial strain or unnecessary complexity.
Schedule a telehealth consultation to find out if you’re a candidate for compounded Semaglutide or Tirzepatide. We’ll guide you through every step—from evaluation to ongoing care—so you can start feeling confident in your body and your plan.
