The state has prioritized telehealth access for rural Iowans, and weight management is one of the most commonly cited reasons patients seek telehealth care in Iowa. Ozari's platform is fully compliant with Iowa's telemedicine standards and can serve patients in all 99 Iowa counties.

Named pharmacy partners
Ozari does not sell semaglutide from inventory. Every order is patient-specific, written by a licensed prescriber, and prepared by either Hallandale Pharmacy — a PCAB-accredited 503A facility in Fort Lauderdale, Florida — or VialsRx, a U.S.-licensed 503A pharmacy compounding under USP 797 standards. Your shipment label identifies the dispensing pharmacy. Ozari Health holds LegitScript certification for its telehealth platform, which third parties can verify independently.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions from Des Moines patients considering compounded semaglutide.
Compounded semaglutide is prepared by a licensed 503A pharmacy for an individual prescription. Branded Wegovy is an FDA-approved finished product with a full FDA review of safety, efficacy, and manufacturing. Compounded versions are not FDA-approved, not generic equivalents, and are prescribed only when a licensed clinician determines they are appropriate for your history.
Ozari publishes flat-rate plans for Des Moines, Iowa: $86/month equivalent on the 3-Month Starter Plan ($257 every 3 months, first-time GLP-1 users), $145/month on Quarterly ($435 every 3 months), or $175/month month-to-month. Free shipping is included; no insurance is required.
Safety depends on appropriate prescribing, pharmacy standards, and follow-up care — not price alone. Ozari uses named 503A partners (Hallandale Pharmacy, PCAB-accredited; VialsRx, USP 797) and a LegitScript-certified telehealth platform. Compounded products are still not FDA-approved finished drugs, so your clinician must review contraindications before treatment.
You complete a secure online intake, a licensed clinician reviews your record, and a prescription is sent to a 503A partner pharmacy only if treatment is medically appropriate. Medication ships to your Des Moines, Iowa address. There is no checkout without clinician review.
In STEP 1 (NEJM 2021), FDA-approved semaglutide 2.4 mg with lifestyle support produced a mean 14.9% body weight reduction at 68 weeks versus 2.4% with placebo. Published trial averages are not guarantees for compounded products or for any individual patient.
