Give your direct-to-consumer pharmacy the GLP-1 coaching layer that keeps patients on the drug.
When you sell GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) drugs direct, the fulfillment is yours but the outcome still depends on whether the patient stays on treatment. License the clinical reasoning and protocol layer that turns a shipped prescription into a supported one — under your own brand, without a clinical build.
Practitioner-supervised. Rule-anchored. Evidence-cited. HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)-compliant, BAA (business associate agreement)-ready.

The gap
Shipping the drug is the easy part. Keeping the patient on it is not.
Many manufacturers now fill prescriptions themselves, at a cash price, specifically for patients whose insurance doesn't cover the drug — coverage for GLP-1 drugs varies enormously by plan, and roughly half of commercial plans exclude it entirely. That patient, who usually already has a prescriber, gets the drug shipped — and often nothing else.
Today
A GLP-1 prescription, shipped
Your direct-to-consumer pharmacy does the hard part well: verification, fulfillment, refills. For the cash-pay patient who already has a prescriber, that's often where the relationship ends.
Building a coaching layer to keep that patient on the drug means clinical staff, an evidence base, and a review workflow — a multi-year clinical build most manufacturers have no reason to take on themselves.
With Tera modules
A GLP-1 prescription, supported
Clinical Reasoning maps the patient's overall health — their conditions, history, biomarkers, and the specific drug and dose they're on — so the protocol builders can generate a plan that accounts for what else is going on with that patient, not just the prescription.
That plan addresses the side effects and lifestyle changes that determine whether the drug gets a real chance to work, and the Tera Patient Copilot delivers it daily, white-labeled under your own brand, alongside the fulfillment experience the patient already trusts you for.
The shift
From shipping a prescription to supporting the patient who takes it.

The modules this uses.
A fulfillment-only relationship needs reasoning, a protocol, and a way to deliver it — without touching your pharmacy operations.
Clinical Reasoning
Maps biomarkers and patient context to possible conditions deterministically. The LLM (large language model) summarizes findings; the rules engine produces them.
Nutrition Protocol Builder
Biomarker-driven meal plans, foods used as medicine, eliminations, and macronutrient targets personalized to the patient’s diagnostic and goal context.
Fitness Protocol Builder
Strength, cardiovascular, and mobility programs calibrated to functional capacity and recovery patterns.
Stress Management Protocol Builder
Mind-body, breathwork, and parasympathetic recovery protocols matched to the patient’s stress profile.
Module 05
Tera Patient Copilot
Coaches patients daily between visits, and logs what the plan asks for: food, supplements, and workouts completed, plus symptoms the patient reports. That log feeds back into the protocol so it can be adjusted. White-labeled (hosted by Tera) or embedded as an SDK (software development kit) in your patient app.
All nine modules are available — these are the ones this use case starts with.
How it works.
A layer added alongside fulfillment, not a replacement for it.
Patient data in
Intake, prescription, and health history pass into Clinical Reasoning through the API.
Protocol generated
The builders generate a plan personalized to the drug’s titration phase and the patient’s other conditions.
Practitioner signs
A clinician — yours, or one we supply — reviews and approves the plan before it reaches the patient.
Coached daily
The Patient Copilot delivers the plan under your brand, and logs the patient’s adherence and symptoms.
Symptoms analyzed, plan adjusts
The logged symptoms and adherence feed back into the protocol, so it can be adjusted to reduce side effects.
Continuous feedback. The logged symptoms and adherence feed back into the protocol, so it can be adjusted to reduce side effects.
Clinical architecture
Safe AI you can embed.
Clinical defensibility is the precondition for embedding AI into any healthcare platform — three architectural pillars built to pass your compliance, legal, and clinical leadership reviews.
01
Supervision
Practitioner-supervised by design
Tera AI generates; the licensed clinician approves. Every condition hypothesis, every protocol, every adjustment is reviewed and signed off before it reaches the patient.
02
Reasoning
Reasoning is rule-anchored, not improvised
Tera does not ask a language model to interpret biomarkers or a drug’s effects on its own. A proprietary clinical knowledge base maps lab results to functional ranges deterministically, then to conditions and protocols. That same knowledge base now also hosts drug-specific protocols — starting with GLP-1 nutrition and fitness protocols — mapped to the drug’s titration dosage phases and its known side effects, and personalized to the patient’s other health conditions. The model only summarizes what the rules produced.
03
Evidence
Every recommendation is evidence-cited
Four knowledge bases — biomarker to condition, condition to protocol, drug to protocol, and food to condition and health goal — with every mapping backed by peer-reviewed citations. Audit-ready and inspectable.
Architecture
Rules produce the findings. AI communicates them.
Deployment
Three ways to deploy.
Pick the integration depth that matches your engineering capacity and brand requirements. All three deliver the same clinical AI underneath.
— I — API ONLY
Server-to-server REST API
You build the UI (user interface) inside your own application. Authentication via OAuth or API key. Modules return structured JSON your app renders natively.
— II — EMBEDDED SDK
Drop-in React components
Your brand, your styling, our clinical logic. Embed the modules as React components in your existing application without building the interface from scratch.
— III — WHITE-LABEL HOSTED
We host the interface; you brand it
Tera hosts the full practitioner portal and Patient Copilot. Custom domain, custom theme, our infrastructure — no engineering work on your side.
Integration options
Choose how much of the interface you want Tera to provide.
