r/oatmeds

I have been on Tirz for over two years and have predominantly used Tirz with no additives - always from 503b’s. The one time I ordered Tirz with an additive, I had a massive allergic reaction.

I recently ordered Hyalo through OatMeds, but with all the ongoing issues (floaters, strands of fiber in vials, lids that are not properly crimped), I am begrudgingly considering ordering through Lilly Direct. I see that for OatMeds to send a script to Lilly Direct, you must be a member of OatCare+. How does that work and what are the costs?

Can Zepbound scripts be sent in for a 90 day supply or does it require once-a-month check-in? Which I’m guessing would be more money out of my pocket with OatCare+. I can find little to no detail on OatCare+ on the website.

Input is appreciated, so I can proceed as best suits me and my budget. I hate giving Lilly my money, but it seems high quality 503b’s are becoming non-existent.

Thanks in advance for any insights.

For some reason I cannot upload a video from my Iphone but I caught a snap of the fibers in this one.

If you have the same lot and Bud, the best way to check is with a flashlight under the vial, then swirl the liquid. You might think you are in the clear but It is near impossible to see without a flashlight.

Are there compounding pharmacies that are available for ca residents? All I'm seeing in the questionnaire is zepbound

I am so grateful for Oatmeds and the great coupon they offered for Hyalo no additives! Order process was so easy, and I LOVE the fact that the prices are right up front, and pharmacy choice is in the hands of the patient. The doctor was also great and helpful. These factors are priorities for me and I will not use a company that gives me no say on the meds and keeps me in the dark until after they get my credit card info. Such an easy process, probably the best I have had during my journey.

I admit I was a little disappointed to see that NewLife shipped my Hyalo using 2-day shipping to the Deep South, where we’re still getting pretty high daytime temperatures. In the future, I would love if Oatmeds could somehow give us the option to request and even pay a bit extra for overnight shipping, especially for those in certain regions where we experience extreme +/- temps.

Meds arrived with completely melted ice rods, but thankfully our evenings are cooler now in Georgia, this helped during the 2+ day journey, and the little bags with the vials still felt a bit cool to the touch. Personally, I don't mind receiving medication that's cool or even room temperature, especially after reading Hyalo's in-house temperature-excursion information. Although NewLife now packages the meds much better, my experience receiving hot meds in the past makes it still no bueno for me. 🤑 I prefer pharmacies that show they value the quality of the product they make and not just give me a piece of paper showing me how much poor packaging and slower cheaper shipping they can get away with while (hopefully) not harming the meds.

Anyway, packaging good, the medication was thankfully still cool, and I immediately put the vials into my peptide box in the fridge, and returned to my online work meeting.

It happened to be shot day so last night, when I pulled my open vial of Miller's Tirz out of the fridge to draw my dose, I decided to check the BUD on the Hyalo vials.

Much to my surprise, the BUD is June 2027—woohooo!! and then I realized they actually sent me extra medication!

No complaints here! 😁
