Before you pay

  1. Is the medication FDA-approved brand, or compounded? (Compounded drugs aren't FDA-approved.)
  2. Which pharmacy fills it, and is it licensed in my state?
  3. Is the price per month, and does it go up at higher doses?
  4. Are clinician visits, messaging, labs and shipping included?
  5. Is a prescription guaranteed? (A legitimate clinician should evaluate you first.)
  6. Is there a prepay commitment, and how do I cancel?
  7. Can I get an itemized receipt for HSA/FSA?
  8. Is it cheaper to go through my insurance or a manufacturer program like LillyDirect or NovoCare?
