Retatrutide's Phase 2 data showed 24% weight loss — more than any approved GLP-1 drug. It's also not FDA-approved, can't be legally compounded, and is being sold at med spas anyway. A PharmD explains the science, the hype, and why you should wait.
LDL cholesterol is the most commonly cited cardiovascular risk marker — and one of the least accurate. A PharmD explains why ApoB is a superior measure of atherogenic risk, how discordance works, and what your target should be.
A PharmD compares the best direct-to-consumer lab testing companies — Function Health, Ulta Lab Tests, Inside Tracker, Everlywell, and more — on biomarker coverage, accuracy, cost, and clinical usefulness.
Why PrecisionOptimize
Our articles are written from scratch by licensed PharmDs — not ghostwritten by content agencies and rubber-stamped by a consultant. The pharmacist who signs the article wrote every word.
Drug-drug interactions. Pharmacokinetics. Why your ApoB matters more than your LDL-C. The stuff that takes a clinical education to explain clearly — and the patience to do it without dumbing it down.
We're building toward direct clinical services — consultations, lab ordering, and GLP-1 prescribing for California patients. In the meantime, our content gives you the clinical depth to have better conversations with your own provider.
