Having Trouble Filling your Prescription?
Bridgeside Telehealth has options!
In response to the ongoing nationwide shortage of GLP-1 medications such as Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, we have a new option for patients having trouble finding medications available, and affording them without insurance coverage.
We are working with a nationwide compounding pharmacy that is licensed and able to ship to all states except CA. Although this is the only compounding pharmacy Bridgeside works with, we, as always, will send your medications to any retail pharmacy you choose (CVS, Walmart, etc).
If this sounds like a good option for you or you have any questions, please reach out to your provider directly or email us HERE
