What the process of getting a GLP-1 prescription generally involves
Because GLP-1 receptor agonists are prescription-only medicines, access always starts with a healthcare professional. The specific pathway varies by country and healthcare system, but the general steps are broadly similar.
A clinical assessment comes first
A prescriber — such as a doctor or other qualified clinician — will assess whether a GLP-1 medicine is suitable for you. This typically involves reviewing your weight, medical history, any existing conditions, and current medications. Suitability is an individual clinical decision; these medicines are not appropriate for everyone, and that determination rests entirely with your prescriber or doctor.
Prescription-only means registered pharmacy supply
Once prescribed, the medicine is dispensed through a registered pharmacy in your country. GLP Trackr is a companion tracking app and plays no part in this process — we do not sell, supply, source, or facilitate access to any medication. For guidance on how to obtain a prescription in your location, speak with your prescriber or doctor directly.
Mounjaro and Wegovy: the two main options
The two most widely prescribed GLP-1 medicines for weight management are Wegovy and Mounjaro, both classed as GLP-1 medicines. Mounjaro (tirzepatide) also acts on GIP receptors, making it a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist. Wegovy (semaglutide) is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. Both are taken as once-weekly injections. For a closer look at each, see our guides on what to know about starting Mounjaro and what to know about starting Wegovy.
What to expect once you are prescribed
Both medicines are typically started at a low dose, with the prescriber adjusting the dose over time based on how you respond. This titration schedule is managed by your prescriber — dose decisions are never something to make independently. Once you are on treatment, staying consistent with your weekly injection schedule and keeping track of how you feel becomes an important part of the journey.

Tracking the right four numbers — weight, waist, protein and dose — turns a noisy chart into a clear story. That's the loop GLP-1 users keep coming back for.

Point your camera at any meal and let our AI do the rest. Breakfast, doses, weight, mood all tracked in seconds.
Already prescribed? How GLP Trackr supports your journey from day one
Once you have your prescription and you are ready to begin — or you are already mid-treatment — the practical challenge shifts to staying consistent and understanding your own progress. That is exactly what GLP Trackr is built for.
The app's dose logging and reminder features mean you always know when your last injection was, which site you used, and when your next dose is due. A gentle weekly reminder helps ensure you never lose track of your schedule — something that matters especially during the early weeks when the routine is still new.
As your journey progresses, GLP Trackr's weight and progress tracking lets you log your weight, measurements, mood, energy, and sleep in a single daily check-in, building a clear picture of how things are moving over time. The insights tools can surface patterns in your own data — useful context to bring to your next prescriber appointment alongside the app's doctor report feature.
GLP Trackr supports users on both Mounjaro and Wegovy — you can read more in our Mounjaro guide for a full overview of what the app offers at each stage of treatment.
Always follow the guidance of your prescriber or doctor — they know your full history and are the right person to guide decisions about your treatment. GLP Trackr helps you record and understand your journey; it is not a substitute for clinical advice.

The Most Advanced GLP-1 Brain Ever Built.
The first AI built exclusively for GLP-1 weight loss. Every insight, every meal plan, every prediction trained on one thing only: helping you get the most out of your medication.
Knows Your Cycle
GLPIQ tracks where you are in your injection cycle and adjusts everything around it: lighter meals on nausea days, higher protein when appetite returns, and smarter targets as your medication level shifts.
Predicts Before You Feel It
GLPIQ learns your personal side effect patterns over time. After a few cycles, it starts warning you the morning before a rough day — and adjusts your meal plan automatically.
Finds Your Golden Dose
GLPIQ analyses every dose you've been on: weight loss rate, side effects, food noise, mood, protein adherence and tells you which dose gave you the best results. No other app does this.

Frequently asked questions.
No. Mounjaro and Wegovy are prescription-only medicines in most countries. A qualified prescriber must assess your suitability before any supply can take place. There is no legitimate route to obtain them without a clinical prescription.
Your prescriber or doctor will review your medical history, weight, existing conditions, and current medications to decide whether a GLP-1 medicine is clinically appropriate for you. Suitability varies by individual and is entirely a clinical decision.
Mounjaro contains tirzepatide, a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist. Wegovy contains semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist. Both are once-weekly injectables for weight management. Which is right for you is a decision for your prescriber, not something to determine independently.
No. GLP Trackr is a tracking and journaling app for people already prescribed Mounjaro or Wegovy. It does not sell, supply, or source medication, and it is not a prescribing or medical service.
Once prescribed, you can log your weekly doses, injection sites, weight, mood, energy, side effects, food, and more. The app builds an ongoing record of your journey that you can review and share with your prescriber at appointments.
