Foundayo (Orforglipron) - Overview

Foundayo (orforglipron) is a once-daily oral GLP-1 receptor agonist tablet used in chronic weight management medication in eligible adults. People who might need a Foundayo prescription can use Push Health to connect with a medical provider who can prescribe the medication when appropriate to do so.

What Is Foundayo Used For?

Foundayo is a once-daily oral tablet sometimes prescribed to adults with obesity for weight reduction or with overweight in the presence of comorbid conditions. Foundayo is the first small-molecule, non-peptide GLP-1 receptor agonist available as a convenient daily pill with no food or water restrictions. Foundayo prescription medication contains the active ingredient orforglipron and is a convenient medication for patients who need or prefer oral options. Foundayo can be taken at any time of day and tablets do not require refrigeration.

Foundayo tablets are well absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and work by selectively activating GLP-1 receptors in the brain, gut, and pancreas. Specific effects include:

• Reduced food noise and appetite suppression
• Delayed gastric emptying
• Improved insulin sensitivity and glucose-dependent insulin secretion

Foundayo should be used with a reduced-calorie diet and more physical activity.

Who Can Take Foundayo?

Foundayo prescription medication is approved for chronic weight management in adults with:

• Obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m²), or
• Overweight (BMI ≥ 27 kg/m²) plus at least one weight-related medical condition (such as hypertension, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, or cardiovascular disease).

Foundayo - Dosage and Cost

While it depends on the patient and the judgment of the medical provider, Foundayo is typically prescribed using common protocols:

• Start at a low daily dose (e.g. 0.8 mg)
• Increase stepwise (e.g. 2.5 mg or 5.5 mg) based on tolerability and response
• Achieve a maximum maintenance dose

Foundayo tablets can be taken any time of day and should be swallowed whole.

Foundayo medication is available at LillyDirect and some retail pharmacies. Costs vary by channel but self-pay pricing often starts at $149 per month. Check with your insurer or LillyDirect for the most current coverage information.

Foundayo - Clinical Trials

In the ATTAIN-1 trial, adults on the highest dose who completed treatment lost an average of 12.4% body weight (27.3 pounds) over 72 weeks versus 0.9% with placebo. Overall, trial participants lost about 11.1% (25 pounds). In the ATTAIN-2 trial, adults with obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes were found to have statistically superior reduction in body weight compared with placebo as an adjunct to lifestyle modification over 72 weeks.

Foundayo - Side Effects

Commonly reported side effects from Foundayo use include nausea, diarrhea, constipation, vomiting, indigestion, gas, headache, and fatigue. GI symptoms are often worst during dose increases. Fatigue and hair loss have also been reported. In general, the medication is reasonably well tolerated.

People with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2) should avoid using Foundayo. Other significant risks include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, dehydration, kidney injury, hypoglycemia when used with insulin or sulfonylureas, diabetic retinopathy, and effects on other oral medications due to delayed gastric emptying. Foundayo should not be combined with other GLP-1 receptor agonists. Alcohol may worsen GI side effects and any intended use should be cleared with one's medical provider before taking Foundayo medication.

Seek care for severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, signs of dehydration, neck mass, or allergic reaction. Patients should discuss other questions about the medication with one's medical provider.
