Phoenix NP Expands Access to FDA-Approved Weight Loss Medications Across Arizona

Phoenix, Arizona, Dec. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Phoenix, Arizona - December 02, 2025 - -

Phoenix NP announced an expansion of its service availability across Arizona to help more women access FDA-approved GLP-1 weight loss medications through compliant, manufacturer-direct pharmacies. The organization stated that this development comes at a critical time, as compounded GLP-1 medications were removed from the U.S. FDA's shortage list in 2025, making compounded versions no longer permitted for prescribing under prior exceptions. The Phoenix NP confirmed that the expansion is designed to support women who are seeking legitimate, FDA-approved medications, such as Wegovy (semaglutide) and Zepbound (tirzepatide), but may be unaware that many compounded alternatives are no longer permitted.

Phoenix NP emphasized that public confusion surrounding medication options has increased as some clinics continue to promote compounded versions despite the updated federal guidelines. The organization noted that this expansion aims to provide women throughout Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Chandler, Gilbert, and Goodyear with a clear and reliable source for FDA-approved treatments, dispensed directly from NovoCare and Lilly Direct. By broadening its availability, Phoenix NP aims to reach individuals who may otherwise turn to clinics that prescribe non-compliant compounded versions without understanding the regulatory changes or potential risks involved.

According to Phoenix NP, the decision reflects a rise in statewide demand for safe, compliant weight loss solutions that do not rely on compounded alternatives. The organization reported a steady increase in inquiries from women who are specifically seeking verified GLP-1 medications after encountering inconsistent information from other providers. Leadership stated that the priority is to ensure women have access to accurate guidance, transparent processes, and medications sourced directly from the original manufacturers.

Although the organization operates entirely through a telehealth format, Phoenix NP clarified that virtual access serves as a supportive structure rather than the primary focus of the expansion. The telehealth model allows women to meet with the same licensed provider at every appointment, offering continuity and a consistent point of contact for questions about medication eligibility, dosing, and lifestyle considerations. Phoenix NP stated that this consistency helps patients navigate the ongoing transition away from compounded GLP-1s while receiving clear information on proper FDA-approved treatments.

Founder and provider Jenny Vu expressed that expanding service availability reinforces the organization's commitment to medication safety and regulatory compliance. "Many women in Arizona are still unaware that compounded GLP-1s are no longer allowed under the previous shortage allowances," Jenny Vu said. "This expansion allows the organization to reach more patients who are actively looking for legitimate FDA-approved options. The goal is to provide clarity and help women access medications through the proper manufacturer channels so they can feel confident in the safety and authenticity of their treatment."

Jenny Vu added that women frequently need guidance during this industry shift. "Phoenix NP noted that it has become increasingly important to help patients understand the difference between compounded and FDA-approved versions. The organization stated that expanding its reach allows more women to connect with a provider who can walk them through those distinctions and ensure they receive medication that meets current federal requirements."

Phoenix NP stated that its operational model remains unchanged despite the expansion. The organization will continue offering straightforward scheduling, transparent monthly service fees, and a virtual care structure that eliminates travel requirements and long wait times. Leadership confirmed that the same procedures and standards will apply to all added service areas.

The organization noted that broader access to FDA-approved medications is essential as regulatory oversight continues to evolve. With state and federal agencies reinforcing the shift away from compounded GLP-1s, Phoenix NP believes that expanding the availability of legitimate treatment pathways will help protect patients and reduce uncertainty for those seeking medically supervised weight loss options.
