What is Rapamycin?
How to take
- • Rapamycin is typically prescribed as a once weekly capsule taken by mouth with or without food.
- • Note that this treatment is only available for patients over the age of 35.
- • The doctor will personalize your instructions to fit your unique needs. Details will be included in your shipment, if prescribed.
- • Always reach out to your provider if you have any concerns or need assistance.
Potential side effects
- • Side effects include mild mouth sores, gastrointestinal discomfort, headache, fatigue, or changes in cholesterol levels, but these are all typically mild and temporary. Serious side effects are rare at low doses. Contact your provider if you notice any side effects that bother you or don’t go away.
- • Prescription products require an online consultation to determine if a prescription is appropriate. We include regular follow-ups with your provider to monitor your response.
Only available by prescription from provider after virtual consultation. Product images are for illustrative purposes only and may include branding used for marketing. The actual medication you receive will be compounded and dispensed by a licensed partner pharmacy and labeled in accordance with pharmacy regulations. Compounded drugs are permitted to be prescribed under federal law but are not FDA-approved and do not undergo FDA safety, effectiveness, or manufacturing review. Individual results may vary.

Start treatment in 4 easy steps

Intake forms
Answer a few quick questions about your health history and goals.

Blood work
Provide lab results to establish your baseline levels.

Doctor review
A licensed provider will determine if the treatment is the right fit for you.

Free standard shipping
Your treatment will ship quickly and discreetly to your door at no cost.

Providing bloodwork
Lab work is required before starting treatment, again at the 3-month mark, and once a year thereafter. These check-ins ensure the medication is working as intended and give your provider the information needed to adjust your treatment for optimal results.
You can use previous bloodwork if they meet the minimum requirements, or obtain new results at your chosen lab. We recommend LabCorp On Demand or Quest Diagnostics.
Why in-person labs?
• Choose any clinic or lab – Go wherever is convenient for you; you're not limited to a specific provider.
• No need to collect samples yourself – Skip the hassle of at-home kits or figuring out how to draw your own blood.
• Insurance may help cover the cost – Many labs accept insurance, which can lower your out-of-pocket expenses.
• Faster turnaround time – Since samples don't need to be shipped back and forth, results often come in sooner.
Helpful, but not required: GFR, fasting blood glucose, A1c, CRP, testosterone (men), estradiol, magnesium, potassium, DEXA Scan
You'll be asked to submit your bloodwork during your intake, but if you don't have them yet, you'll have 10 days to upload them in your patient portal. If we don't receive them within that window, your prescription request will be cancelled. You'll also use the portal to upload future results for follow-up visits.
