Am I eligible for GLP-1 therapy?

Eligibility generally rests on BMI thresholds, with a lower threshold applying where weight-related comorbidities are present. There are also absolute contraindications: a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN2 rules the class out entirely, and a history of pancreatitis requires careful consideration. A provider determines eligibility after reviewing your intake and laboratory results, and not everyone qualifies.
