Found providers currently prescribe 13 different medications that can be combined to create more than 60 different possible treatment paths, available through our Prescription Program, each uniquely paired to address your biological and medical history.
Those medications may include:

• Buproprion
• Metformin

All medications prescribed through Found are backed by scientific research, thoroughly vetted by our medical team, and are commonly prescribed by obesity medical experts to support healthy weight loss. Once you’ve been approved for our Prescription Program, your provider will help you consider various medical options before finalizing your prescription.

All of our medical providers are US-licensed with combined decades of clinical experience and weight loss expertise. Alongside our robust medical team, Found collaborates with renowned health industry leaders to craft nutritional and wellbeing plans that work in sync with your unique biology and lifestyle. At the leadership level, we've recently welcomed Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Rehka Kumar, and Chief Behavioral Officer, Dr. Acacia Parks, to head our future-pioneering work in the weight care space.

During the initial consultation, your provider assesses all information available — your quiz results, unique biology, and medical history included — to determine if medicating would be safe and effective for your body. Our Support Team is here to help you switch to our non-prescription medication option if you’re eligible, cancel, or otherwise adjust your membership. Please email support@joinfound.com to talk to a team member.

Found providers are required by law to review a legible photo of a valid government-issued ID before they can prescribe medication. 

Our partnering e-pharmacies are also required to confirm your identity using a valid government-issued ID before they can fill or ship medication.

With that in mind, please make sure your entire ID is visible so we can verify your name, photo, date of birth, and expiration date. 

We take privacy very seriously, and all of our records are stored and protected per HIPAA standards.

In choosing which medications to prescribe, our prescribers look at various factors to determine the medication that will be safest and most effective for your individual needs. It can take a while for your body to adapt to medication, so we advise sticking to your dose and medication plan until your scheduled refill date unless you are experiencing adverse side effects. If you prefer to discuss alternative options before then, you will have the option to reach out to your provider for guidance.

You don't need a doctor's referral to sign up for Found. However, our medical team is happy to collaborate with your doctor if appropriate.

Every FDA-approved medication has an approved label or indication for which it is prescribed such as a specific disease or condition. When a clinician prescribes medication "off-label," they are prescribing medication for use in a different way than the medication was approved by the FDA.

Providers frequently prescribe medications “off label” when the medicine has a known benefit to treating a condition. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality reports that one in five, or 20%, of all prescriptions in the United States, are for off-label use.

While not always labeled for weight loss, all of our generic medications are FDA approved and have shown safety and efficacy for weight loss. These medications are the same as those offered in academic medical centers. Treatment through the Found platform expands access to obesity treatment by bypassing long waitlists for appointments and copays for visits. 

When prescribed responsibly, off-label medication can help expand a patient's range of options to ensure they're able to access the appropriate medication at the right dose for their specific biological needs.

Found partners with two e-pharmacies that enable us to ship directly to you. With our e-pharmacy partners, the cost of medication and shipping is covered in the price of membership. Of course, if you prefer to stick with your pharmacy, you can reach out to our support team by emailing support@joinfound.com, and we can set that up.

The cost of shipping is covered by your membership. Most of the medications Found offers are also included in your membership fee.
