It cannot be compounded by any 503a pharmacy. 503b can continue to compound and sell it for 60 days. So compounded supplies will begin to dry up. Many states will be releasing information on their specific requirements for unique formulations. I suspect many to be fairly strict on that. Follow what your state says for sure.
So, we should no freak out about compounding tirzepatide going away? Will there be a way to still be able to get it after the shortage is gone? Thanks.
@@emilypomykala3399it cannot be compounded by any 503a now. 503b have 60 days to stop compounding and selling it. Listen to your state on guidance about unique formulations.
So what happens now? Eden wants me to switch my quarterly Tirzepatide to Semaglutide. I just recently paid/renewed for my next quarter (for 3 months). Was told and from watching this video that I did not have to worry and that it is unlikely to recover, but now it is. Is this going to happen to Semaglutide? Should I just stop the injections now and save the hassle? Is it possible Tirzepatide recovery might be temporary and may go back into shortage again? If I do switch to semaglutide and the tirzepatide goes back into shortage, can I switch back? Is this back and forth switch a health concern, assuming this recovery/shortage might occur often?
@@st5838 No one really knows for sure. You should switch to semaglutide if you want to keep taking a compounded GLP-1 medication. If it goes back to shortage, then yes, tirzepatide can be compounded again at that time. Many of us in this space were caught off guard by the FDA's move. It is still very much hard to get, we can only speculate why the FDA did what they did seemingly far too early. From a medical standpoint, you can speak with your doctor about this, but there is no issue switch from 1 to the other. You should get results with either medication.
EXACTLY 🙄….they are playing games! If EVERYONE who uses trizepitide went to brand they would AGAIN be in shortage ! I LOVE my compound ❤, I’m in 5.5 mg….can’t get that dose in patented form 😊
So now what happens that the FDA classified Tirzepatide as "resolved"??

Not at this time; there is no reason to worry. Will it go away at some point? Sure, it will, but I personally don't think so for a while.
@@diversifyrx would love an update!
