One-Size-Fits-All Dosing Doesn’t Work
Semaglutide, tirzepatide, and retatrutide have given real hope to millions. On average, patients lose 16–29% of their body weight, along with improvements in blood sugar, blood pressure, sleep, and heart health.
But when dosing isn’t individualized, these powerful medications can cause nausea, muscle loss, and nutrient deficiencies. Too often, patients are handed a prescription and left to figure it out alone.
At Recess Rx, we use MyLevel to track how much medication is active in your body, personalizing dose amount and timing to keep you in your sweet spot.
That’s the Recess Rx Difference.
8 Keys
to Smarter GLP-1 Therapy
DOSING THAT FITS YOU
MyLevel Precision Titration
Using MyLevel, we adjust dosing to keep your active medication level within your personal target range, supporting steady fat loss of 1–2 lbs per week while minimizing side effects.
PROTECT YOUR MUSCLE
Protein-Forward Nutrition
GLP-1 weight loss without adequate protein means losing muscle along with fat. We set patient-specific protein targets, address micronutrient gaps from reduced appetite, and coach you on eating around GI side effects.
TRAIN WHILE YOU LOSE
Resistance Training Guidance
Muscle preservation during a caloric deficit requires deliberate strength training. We design programs that match your fitness level, prioritize compound movements, and help you get stronger even as the scale drops.
EASY ON THE SIDE EFFECTS
GI Symptom Control
Nausea, bloating, and constipation are the top reasons patients quit GLP-1 therapy. We teach you exactly how these medications affect digestion and how to eat, hydrate, and time meals to reduce or eliminate discomfort.
BEYOND THE SCALE
Body Composition Tracking
Weight is only part of the picture. We track body composition to make sure you are losing fat and preserving lean mass, and adjust your protocol if the ratio shifts.
FAIR PRICING
Medications at Cost
We pass wholesale pricing directly to you with zero markup. When brand-name medications are out of reach, we partner with compounding pharmacies to keep treatment accessible.
CARE WITHOUT BARRIERS
No BMI Gatekeeping
Standard telehealth platforms turn patients away if their BMI is below a threshold. We evaluate the whole clinical picture and treat patients who other providers will not.
RESULTS THAT LAST
Maintenance Planning
Losing weight is the beginning. We help you taper medication when appropriate, build durable habits, and transition to a long-term plan so the results stick.
“I gained 60 pounds in residency. GLP-1s changed my life, but only after I figured out how to dose them properly. That's why I built MyLevel. You don't have to do this alone.”
