Medical Disclaimer

The GLP-1 Calculator is an educational tool only. The information it produces is not medical advice, not a diagnosis, not a treatment recommendation, and not a substitute for consultation with a licensed healthcare provider.

GLP-1 medications (semaglutide, tirzepatide, liraglutide, orforglipron, cagrilintide, and others) are prescription drugs. They have side effects, contraindications, and drug interactions that can be serious. Black-box warnings exist for some of these medications relating to thyroid C-cell tumors and other risks. You must consult a licensed prescriber before starting, stopping, or changing any GLP-1 medication.

About the calculations

Weight-loss projections are mathematical models based on aggregate phase 3 clinical trial data. Real individual results vary widely depending on adherence, lifestyle, dose escalation schedule, baseline metabolic health, genetics, and many other factors. The numbers shown are population-level averages, not individual predictions.

Cost estimates are based on manufacturer list prices, telehealth platform public pricing, and typical insurance copay ranges as of April 2026. Actual costs vary significantly depending on your specific insurance plan, formulary tier, deductible status, geographic pharmacy pricing, manufacturer copay savings cards, and ongoing changes in the market.
