Medical Disclaimer

The information provided on this website, including text, graphics, images, and other materials, is for informational purposes only and is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified healthcare provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read on this website.

If you think you may have a medical emergency, call your doctor, go to the emergency department, or call 911 immediately. Boca Health does not recommend or endorse any specific tests, physicians, products, procedures, opinions, or other information that may be mentioned on this website. Reliance on any information provided by Boca Health, its employees, contracted writers, or medical professionals presenting content for publication to Boca Health is solely at your own risk.

Compounded Medications Disclaimer

Compounded medications are not FDA-approved. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not verify the safety, effectiveness, or quality of compounded drugs. Compounded medications are prepared by state-licensed 503A compounding pharmacies in accordance with applicable state and federal regulations. A pharmacy's license or registration is not FDA approval of the medication.

Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are prepared by a state-licensed compounding pharmacy, are not FDA-approved, and are not the same as, nor therapeutically equivalent to, any FDA-approved product. Compounded formulations have not undergone FDA review or approval.

Compounded medications may be prescribed only when a licensed healthcare provider determines, based on a patient-specific clinical need, that a commercially available FDA-approved medication is not appropriate for that particular patient (for example, an allergy or intolerance to an inactive ingredient, or a need for a different dose or formulation).

GLP-1 Medication Safety Information
