You can get tirzepatide without having a type 2 diabetes diagnosis. For weight loss alone, tirzepatide is approved under the brand Zepbound. You can take it if you have a BMI of 30 or greater (obesity), or 27 or greater (overweight) with at least 1 weight-related health condition, such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or heart disease. You can also take compounded tirzepatide for weight loss with or without type 2 diabetes.

Health insurance typically covers tirzepatide in Mounjaro and Zepbound if prescribed for an approved use. Government insurance plans may not cover it for weight loss. You likely need prior authorization to get covered too. Reach out to your insurance company to verify your coverage details.

If you’re prescribed compounded tirzepatide, it’s harder to say whether insurance will cover it. Some insurance plans don’t cover compounded medications. What’s more, some compounding pharmacies don’t take insurance. Contact both your pharmacy and your insurance company to find out if compounded medications are covered and can be purchased with your insurance.

There isn’t a generic version of tirzepatide. In the U.S., brand-name drugs have exclusivity, meaning they’re protected from competition by generic versions for a certain length of time — usually 3 to 7 years minimum. Mounjaro was approved in 2022 and Zepbound in 2023. It’ll be some time before exclusivity expires and generic versions are available.
