How it works

About Semaglutide

Semaglutide is a medication designed to mimic the effects of a natural hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) by binding to GLP-1 receptors in the body. GLP-1 helps regulate blood sugar and appetite.

Semaglutide slows down the emptying of the stomach to create a sense of fullness, stimulates the production of insulin to regulate blood sugar levels, and suppresses the release of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood sugar.

About Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide is a dual-action medication that mimics the effects of two natural hormones involved in regulated blood sugar and appetite: glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP).

By binding to both GLP-1 and GIP receptors, Tirzepatide enhances insulin production when blood sugar levels are elevated, slows down the emptying of the stomach to create a feeling of fullness, and reduces glucagon secretion. In comparison to Semaglutide, it may have a stronger effect on reducing appetite.

Frequently asked questions

  • No, Otto's clinicians work outside of insurance. You will receive direct access to your clinician and to medications (if indicated) without insurance coverage.

  • We partner with vetted, high-quality, FDA-inspected pharmacies to dispense medications. These pharmacies are held to strict compliance standards. They perform full stability, sterility, and potency testing on each batch. Certificates of analysis are available upon request.

  • Unlike virtual weight loss companies, with Otto, you will establish a long-term relationship with a clinician that cares about you.

    • Have the support you need to make the most of your medication: Research shows that 58% of patients discontinue weight loss medications before reaching a clinically meaningful health benefit due to side effects, cost, and confusion (Source). Having a provider on your side that you trust will help you stay the course.

    • Eventually, maintain your weight without medications: Many patients don't want to depend on medications forever. Your clinician will help you design a comprehensive plan that allows you to eventually roll off the medication without putting on the weight.

  • Not at all. If you are interested in weight loss supported by an expert clinician without medications, our clinicians offer that as well. This approach consists of targeted nutrition changes, exercise regimens, sleep optimization, stress management, and hormone balancing.

  • That's up to you. Otto clinicians are excited to partner with patients to help them to lose or maintain their weight without medications. They can help you design a plan to roll off of your medications safely without putting on the weight.

  • At Otto, most clinicians provide medications at cost to their patients.
