Goal!
Wanted to share some positive results. Started Ro (Zepbound pens) 2/1/25 and with one exception (2 months on 5mg), titrated up every month until 15mg. I’m 58F, 5’10” - started at 239lbs, now 143 lbs. (145 was my goal). Almost 17 months ago, I was at the end of my rope when after 3 or 4 failed attempts to properly fill out my prior authorization form over a 5 month period, my pcp threw up his hands in defeat and said “it probably won’t work for you anyway.” He suggested I lose weight on my own. 🙄 I absolutely knew my insurance company covered Zepbound, and I was more than qualified. In desperation, I contacted Ro, and within a few days, I picked up my first box of pens at my local pharmacy. I have no regrets going through Ro, but realize I am fortunate to have full insurance coverage. I would have had to pay a $75 copay to see my pcp each month to get refill scripts, so the sheer convenience of using Ro providers has been worth the financial cost to me. Thank you Ro (and this group for all the great information.)
