LindaRN_retired's experience with HSA/FSA eligibility for resonates deeply with mine. I went through almost the identical process — starting dose, titration timeline, side effects, everything.

The main difference: I had more GI issues initially. But the overall trajectory has been remarkably similar. Down 41 lbs in 6 months.

One thing I would add that LindaRN_retired did not mention: insurance coverage was a major hurdle.

Clinical perspective on HSA/FSA eligibility for GLP-1:

I have managed over 200 patients on GLP-1 therapy and this topic comes up frequently. What the data shows — and what I see in practice — is that the medication works best as part of a comprehensive approach.

For this specific question, I would recommend: getting comprehensive baseline labs first.
