Get answers to your most important questions about FDA-approved weight-loss medications.
Appetite control
How do weight-loss medications work?
Oral meds help reduce appetite, food cravings, and improve insulin sensitivity. GLP-1 meds (like Wegovy® or Zepbound®) regulate hormones that control hunger and fullness.
Effective results
How much weight can I expect to lose?

FDA-approved
What type of meds are available?
We only prescribe FDA-approved medications, available in both injection and injection-free options.
Price & Insurance
Will my insurance cover meds?
Your Care Team includes insurance experts, who help maximize your coverage for medications like GLP-1s. We also have medication options that are included within the cost of your membership.
*In a study of 3,260 WW Clinic patients, patients that were prescribed a GLP-1 lost on average 21% of their body weight at 12 months.
Members on prescription weight-loss medications lose up to 54% more weight when pairing meds with Points.^
What are GLP-1s?
What are GLP-1s?
GLP-1 agonists are naturally-occurring hormones that signal fullness to the brain.
GLP-1 prescription meds boost those hormones, fighting back against genetic, biological, and environmental factors that prevent weight loss.
This causes reduced appetite levels that result in more effective weight loss.
Are they safe?
Are they safe?
GLP-1s are FDA-approved and clinically proven medications.
The most common side effects are nausea, constipation, or other gastrointestinal discomfort.
Your Care Team will advise you on the best ways to minimize side effects.

Common questions we hear

What medication do you prescribe?


The exact medication that your Clinician will prescribe depends on your medical history, biology, and insurance coverage. When appropriate, your Clinician may prescribe GLP-1 medications, including semaglutide (brand name Wegovy), liraglutide (brand name Saxenda), or tirzepatide (brand name Zepbound). When appropriate, your clinician may prescribe other weight-loss drugs with which other members have found success such as Metformin and combination Naltrexone and Bupropion. If your treatment plan isn’t working for you, talk to your WeightWatchers Clinic Care Team about adjustments or alternative plans.

Please note, some GLP-1 medications are experiencing intermittent nationwide shortages. See which medications are affected on the FDA shortage database.


Is medication included in my membership fee?


It depends on your treatment plan. For GLP-1 medications, your medications are not included, but your Care Team will work with you to get your medication covered by insurance. If insurance covers your medication, you may still be responsible for a copay.

‍
For non-GLP-1 medications, your medications are included in the cost of membership when you choose our mail-order pharmacy partner, Carepoint.

Carepoint's address is 9 Commerce Dr, Schaumburg, IL 60173.

What are the typical results with GLP-1s?


Results depend on which medication you’re prescribed and your medical history. Typically, patients on a GLP-1 medication will lose 10-20% of their body weight. Learn how GLP-1s for weight loss really work.


Learn more in this study summarizing the efficacy of various weight management treatments.

Are there generic options for GLP-1s?

Currently, there are no generic options for GLP-1s. If your insurance does not cover a GLP medication, your Care Team will help you identify other affordable options.

What are the most common side effects of GLP-1 medications?


The most common side effects are nausea, constipation, or other gastrointestinal discomfort. Your Care Team will advise you on the best ways to minimize side effects. Learn more about the side effects of weight-loss medications.

Do you need to have diabetes to take GLP-1s?

No. Saxenda (liraglutide) and Wegovy (semaglutide) are both GLP-1 medications that are FDA-approved specifically for the treatment of obesity.

How long can you stay on a GLP-1 medication?

GLP-1s are indicated for long-term use, much like other medications to treat chronic conditions. The effects stop immediately if you stop taking the medication, and it is likely in most cases that some weight regain will occur. As you reach your healthy goal weight, you should discuss with your clinician about adjusting your maintenance dose if necessary.
