Weight loss results that last

Guide members on their own personalized weight loss journey with our responsible GLP-1 access solution

Weight loss medication use and costs are skyrocketing. Virta can help.

GLP-1 use, both on- and off-label, has led to surging Rx costs for payers, and even medication shortages for people who truly need them.

A proven approach for deprescribing GLP-1s

Our first of its kind research study shows sustained weight loss after deprescribing GLP-1s among a real world population.

Following GLP-1 deprescription, patients weight did not significantly increase at 6 or 12 months post deprescription, compared to many well-known drug trials (in red) where patients regain up to two thirds of weight loss after discontinuing the drug.

Dan lost 110 pounds and changed his attitude

“The Ozempic helped, but there is no magic bullet out there. I needed to change my diet. The energy level I have now is amazing, I’m walking 6-8 miles a day. My attitude is way better too. I didn’t care about a lot of things before, but now I do.”

Benefits leader Sheri knows Virta works first hand

“Within the first three months on Virta, all my numbers had come down and I lost 60 pounds! I can play with my grandkids now and get back up again without pain. It is incredible.“

DeShawn is breaking his family history of diabetes

“Since being on Virta, my blood sugars are so much better, and it’s all from just adjusting what I eat. I’ve also lost about 30 pounds, and I never had to go hungry in order to lose them. I actually love what I get to eat.“
