AgelessRx Adds Oral GLP-1 Drops
AgelessRx is one of several telehealth platforms adding a needle-free option to weight loss
AgelessRx, a telehealth platform specializing in longevity, is launching a needle-free alternative for weight loss medication users with oral sublingual drops.
While the appeal of drops may be appealing to consumers who are squeamish about injectables, oral sublingual drops have another perk: their ability to bypass the digestive system, offering more efficient and faster delivery of the medication compared to traditional oral forms, such as digestible tablets, according to AgelessRx.
“Our mission is to make longevity accessible for all, and GLP-1s are a core piece of that puzzle,” said Stefanie Morgan, vice president of applied sciences at AgelessRx. “The impact of these medications is proving to go beyond traditional uses to significantly improve key health metrics – from metabolic health to glucose regulation, liver function34, heart health and even sleep56 – that could be foundational to a long, healthy life and a key driver in longevity.”
The drops come in both Tirzepatide and semaglutide forms.
Noom and Found have also recently introduced need-free weight loss medication options for their customers. Found has added oral dissolving tablets, and Noom announced it would add oral medications at a $29 entry price for those with a lower BMI than needed to qualify for GLP-1s and those tapering off the weight loss medications. Last spring, Henry Meds added dissolvable tablets to its offerings.
