Frequently Asked Questions.
Have more questions? Our care team is available 7 days a week and answers messages within one business day.
Am I eligible for GLP-1 medication? +
Adults with a BMI of 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with a weight related health condition, may qualify. Our free assessment takes 5 minutes and a licensed provider will review your eligibility, typically within 24 hours.
How quickly will I receive my medication? +
After provider approval, pharmacy processing typically takes 1 to 2 business days. Shipping transit generally takes another 2 to 3 business days, so most first orders arrive within 3 to 5 business days after approval. Timing may vary by pharmacy workload, location, holidays, and carrier conditions.
What does it cost? +
The online health assessment is free. KERNX does not collect payment for treatment before provider approval. Your bank or card issuer may display a temporary authorization hold during sign up, but this is not a completed KERNX charge. There is no separate consultation fee. Medication and any selected add ons are processed only after a provider approves treatment and you accept the plan. All applicable costs are shown before you commit. Cancel anytime.
Is this covered by insurance? +
KERNX Health currently operates as a cash pay platform. Most insurance plans do not cover compounded GLP-1 medications for weight loss. Our cash pay medication pricing is $209 per month for injectable Semaglutide, $279 per month for oral Semaglutide, and $299 per month for Tirzepatide. The price is the same at every prescribed dose, and full pricing details are available on our Pricing page.
What ongoing support will I receive? +
Every KERNX member has access to a dedicated care team, including their prescribing provider. Message them anytime, with monthly check ins to track your progress and adjust your plan.
Are compounded medications legal? +
Yes. When treatment is approved and a prescription is issued, prescriptions coordinated through KERNX Health are fulfilled through the licensed dispensing pharmacy identified in your treatment and fulfillment information. Compounded medications are not FDA approved and are not reviewed by the FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality before marketing.
How do pharmacy prepared GLP-1 medications work? +
Semaglutide and tirzepatide are GLP-1 based medications. Pharmacy prepared versions are made by licensed 503A compounding pharmacies for individual patients based on a valid prescription from a licensed provider. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved and are not the same as the approved brand products. Because they are prepared for individual patients and offered on a cash pay basis, they can be provided at a lower cost than brand name retail.
Is compounding regulated and safe? +
The dispensing pharmacy is licensed and is subject to the federal and state requirements applicable to it. A valid prescription from a licensed provider is required for treatment through KERNX Health. Compounded medications are not FDA approved and are not reviewed by the FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality before marketing.
Do I need a prescription? +
Yes. All medications prescribed through KERNX Health require a valid prescription from a licensed provider. No medication is dispensed without individual review and approval by a licensed clinician. This is a core part of our commitment to safe, medically supervised care.
Why is KERNX so much more affordable than brand name options? +
Brand name GLP-1 medications carry the cost of pharmaceutical manufacturing and significant marketing budgets, with list prices above $1,000 a month. Many lower cost programs sell medication alone, leaving patients to arrange their own prescriber, labs, and monitoring. KERNX operates as a lean telehealth platform with no physical clinics, and includes licensed clinical care with your medication in one transparent program. Our mission is goal oriented care: we start with what you want to achieve, then build a plan around it, so quality weight loss care is accessible to more people rather than only those who can afford brand name retail.
