What Should I Expect for Shipping and Delivery?

After you submit your assessment and payment, the full process from submission to delivery typically takes 3–5 business days. Your medication ships with temperature-controlled packaging directly to your door.

Typical Order Timeline

Day

What Happens

Day 0

You submit payment and your health assessment

Days 1–2

Medical team reviews your assessment

Day 2-3

If no issues, prescription is sent to the pharmacy

Days 3–5

Pharmacy prepares, ships, and delivers your medication

Days 5-7

Delivery completed (standard turnaround time)

Additional Information: Once the pharmacy completes processing your order, it is shipped using two-day air, ensuring delivery within 2 business days.

Special Handling: If your prescription is shipped via UPS, delivery typically takes 48 hours from the time UPS picks up the package from the pharmacy.

A few things that affect timing:

  • The pharmacy only hands packages to carriers Monday through Thursday. No pickups occur Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.

  • UPS and FedEx may still deliver on Friday or Saturday if your package was already picked up earlier in the week. Tracking updates on those days are normal and don't mean a new shipment went out.

  • Weekends and holidays do not count as business days for processing.

  • Orders placed before 2pm Eastern Time typically process faster.

What do my order statuses mean?

Status

What it means

Shipped

Your order is on its way. Check your email for a tracking number.

Delivered

Your order has been marked as delivered by the carrier.

Cancelled

Your order has been cancelled. Contact support if this was unexpected.

If you have questions about your order status or don't see an update you expected, contact our support team and we'll look into it for you.


What if my medication arrives warm?

No need to worry. Your medication is very stable:

  • It stays effective for up to 60 days at normal room temperature

  • It can handle brief heat exposure up to 104Β°F for up to 5 days without losing effectiveness

  • Beyond-use dates (BUD): Tirzepatide 9–12 months, Semaglutide 3–6 months depending on the batch

If you're ever unsure whether your medication is still safe to use, contact our support team and we can assess it and arrange a replacement if needed.


What if my package shows delivered but I didn't receive it?

Carriers sometimes mark packages as delivered 1–2 days before they actually arrive. We recommend:

  1. Wait 1–2 days β€” it may still be on its way

  2. Check for a delivery photo β€” most carriers provide one. If there is no photo of the delivery, contact the carrier directly to file a claim

  3. Contact our support team if you need help or the carrier doesn't resolve it


What if my order is delayed?

Common causes of delays include:

  • High pharmacy volume

  • Weather or carrier delays

  • Incorrect address or payment information

  • Medication backorders- Orders placed on hold and later released for fulfillment

If your order is delayed, message us and we'll check the status for you.


What if my payment didn't go through?

Update your payment information in the portal and contact support to restart your order. A failed payment will put your order on hold until it's resolved.


What if I paused my order and want to resume?

You can resume your order directly in your account. If you have any trouble or questions about your next shipment date, contact our support team and we'll help.
