GLP-1 Health Check

5 essential blood tests to monitor your health on GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound. Covers liver function, blood sugar, cholesterol, thyroid, and blood counts — everything your provider wants to see.

If you're taking a GLP-1 medication — semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus) or tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound) — regular blood work helps you and your provider make sure everything is on track.

The GLP-1 Health Check bundles the five tests most commonly recommended for patients on weight loss and diabetes medications into a single, affordable panel. It covers liver safety, metabolic progress, cardiovascular improvements, thyroid function, and general health markers.

What's included:

  • Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) — Liver enzymes (ALT, AST), kidney function, glucose, and electrolytes. Liver monitoring is especially important for patients on tirzepatide.
  • Lipid Panel — Total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides. Tracks one of the major cardiovascular benefits of GLP-1 therapy.
  • Hemoglobin A1c — Your average blood sugar over the past 2–3 months. The gold standard for measuring metabolic improvement.
  • TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) — Significant weight loss can shift your thyroid hormone needs. Particularly important if you're on levothyroxine or have a history of thyroid issues.
  • Complete Blood Count (CBC) — Red and white blood cells, hemoglobin, and platelets. Screens for anemia and nutritional deficiencies that can occur with reduced caloric intake.

Most providers recommend baseline labs before starting GLP-1 therapy and follow-up testing every 3–6 months. At $49, the GLP-1 Health Check costs a fraction of what hospitals and traditional labs charge — with the same Quest Diagnostics labs and physician-reviewed results.

Fasting Required

One or more tests in this panel require fasting for accurate results:

  • Do not eat or drink anything except water for 8-12 hours before your blood draw.
  • Water is allowed and encouraged - stay hydrated!
  • Schedule your lab visit in the morning for convenience.

What This Panel Measures

This panel evaluates five key areas of health affected by GLP-1 medications:

  • Liver function & safety — ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin, and albumin via CMP. Monitors for medication-related liver stress and the effects of rapid weight loss on liver enzymes.
  • Metabolic health — Fasting glucose (CMP) and HbA1c together give a complete picture of blood sugar control, both current and over the past 2–3 months.
  • Cardiovascular risk — Total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides. GLP-1 medications have been shown to improve lipid profiles — this tracks that progress.
  • Thyroid function — TSH levels can shift as your weight changes, especially if you're already managing hypothyroidism. Catching changes early helps keep your thyroid medication dialed in.
  • Blood cell health — CBC screens for anemia, infection, and nutritional deficiencies that can develop when caloric intake drops significantly during GLP-1 therapy.

Who Should Get This Panel

  • You're currently taking Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus, Mounjaro, or Zepbound and need routine monitoring
  • You're about to start a GLP-1 medication and want baseline labs before your first dose
  • Your telehealth provider (Hims, Ro, Found, Calibrate, Sequence) recommends blood work but doesn't include it in your subscription
  • Your doctor prescribed a GLP-1 and you want affordable lab work without going through insurance
  • You're on compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide and want to make sure your levels look good
