Why would one buy from Polaris or Skye? I am trying to understand this. My local compounding pharmacy charges $413 for a month's supply of 15mg Tirzepatide. Polaris is $459/month.

I thought that compounding pharmacies are no longer legally permitted to produce tirzepatide?

That lasted a whole of about a week

Hey now, I think it was 6 days.

Novo just filed a very extensive letter and presentation with the FDA. My guess is that once a decision is made by the FDA, going forward, no compounding will be allowed of any weight loss/diabetes peptide even if there is a shortage.

The compounding pharmacy lawyers are going to fight that one hard. Obviously Novo can't come up with a way to end the Ozempic/Wegovy shortage, so they are making the flimsy argument that compounded versions are dangerous. That's going to be a very high bar to pass when there's several years of compounding that's happened already.

Unfortunately, regardless of political affiliation, about 2/3 of American politicians are on the pharma payroll. Don't expect any one of them to support us in this issue.
