St. Matthews Pharmacy Weight Loss Program
Beginning in 2025, St. Matthews Pharmacy will now be requiring qualified patients* receiving GLP-1 and
other Insulin-like peptide medications for weight loss to enroll in weight loss program. These medications
include, but are not limited to: Ozempic, Mounjaro, Saxenda, Wegovy, Zepbound etc.
Increased demand decreased availability and continuing scrutiny from Insurance companies has
necessitated that we find a better approach to caring for our patients and ensuring we can continue to
properly stock these medications.
There will be a required monthly membership fee of $100**. And will include:
• Reserved stock of prescribed medication***
• Access to additional resources for weight loss, and weight loss management
• Optional Additional monthly counseling w/ a pharmacist to go over new medications, side effects and results
• Optional Monthly Weight-ins to track progress.
This membership is designed to help us focus on the health and progress of our patients towards their goals, while reducing outside pressures that have made it difficult to continue to stock these medications.
We understand this may not be feasible for all patients, and while we do apologize for the inconvenience, we will assist you in finding another pharmacy that can fill your medication, and transfer the Rx, if that is ultimately the decision that is made. We hope in that case we can continue to assist in other ways and for other medications moving forward and will always be available to lend a hand.
*Patients receiving GLP-1 and other ILPs for documented treatment of Diabetes, as well as Medicare and Medicaid Patients are
excluded from membership requirements.
**Cash paying patients will have this charged assessed w/ the upfront cost of the medication
***Reserved stock is on a first come first served basis. Our intent is to adequately order in order to service all members,
however this is still subject to overall availability of the products from our wholesaler
