Semaglutide and Tirzepatide drops, while gaining popularity in the weight loss market, are not currently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in their drop formulations. Although both medications are FDA-approved for specific injectable treatments related to diabetes and, in some cases, chronic weight management, their use as compounded oral drops has not undergone the rigorous testing and regulatory review required for FDA approval.
While compounded oral versions of semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved, there is ongoing research into their potential. Novo Nordisk has submitted a marketing application for an oral version of semaglutide, which, if approved, would become the first oral GLP-1 therapy for chronic weight management in the U.S. The FDA has accepted this application, and a decision is expected later in 2025 . Similarly, Eli Lilly is developing an oral GLP-1 medication, orforglipron, which has shown promising results in clinical trials . These developments indicate a shift towards more convenient oral formulations, but until FDA approval is granted, compounded versions of these drugs remain unapproved and carry potential risks.

Effectiveness of Oral Tirzepatide/Semaglutide (Sublingual Drops)
While oral (sublingual) Tirzepatide/Semaglutide offers a needle-free alternative, it is important to understand that it is significantly less bioavailable than the injectable form. Although the same peptides are used, the body absorbs them differently. Based on current compounding methods and available data:
Due to this lower absorption, sublingual Tirzepatide/Semaglutide must be taken daily and often at higher doses to achieve comparable effects to the once-weekly injections. As this formulation is still relatively new, results may vary, and clinical feedback is still evolving.
Needle-Free & Painless
Enjoy the same appetite and glucose-regulating benefits of GLP-1 therapy without injections—perfect for those who prefer a non-invasive, comfortable option.
Convenient Daily Routine
Simply place drops under your tongue once daily. No refrigeration, no sharps, and no scheduling injection appointments.
Consistent Blood Levels
Daily dosing provides a steady, gentle GLP-1 effect, helping to minimize side effects like nausea that can occur with injectable loading doses.
Supports Appetite Control & Satiety
Helps reduce cravings and portion sizes by enhancing feelings of fullness, leading to sustainable fat loss.
Improves Blood Sugar Balance
Aids in better glucose control, supporting metabolic health and reducing insulin resistance over time.
Science-Backed Weight Loss Results
GLP-1 receptor agonists like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide have been clinically shown to aid in significant weight loss when combined with a healthy lifestyle.

Semaglutide and tirzepatide are GLP-1 receptor agonists that help regulate blood sugar and appetite. Originally developed for type 2 diabetes, they are now also prescribed off-label or under FDA approval (injectables only) for chronic weight management in specific patient populations.
No, compounded oral drops of Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are not currently FDA-approved. While there is growing interest and research in oral formulations, these versions have not yet undergone full FDA evaluation for safety, effectiveness, and dosing accuracy. Patients should use caution and only obtain them from reputable, licensed pharmacies.
Injectables are FDA-approved, well-studied, and provide consistent absorption and results. Oral drops are compounded versions that may be more convenient but are not FDA-approved, meaning their effectiveness and safety are less certain.
Compounded medications can be safe when prepared by a reputable, licensed pharmacy that follows strict quality and safety standards. However, it's crucial to know that compounded products are not FDA-approved, so patients should always consult a licensed provider and choose a pharmacy with transparent practices.
