The brand is not related to the yucca plant, Joshua trees, or the town of Yucca, AZ. Best known for compounded GLP-1 weight management programs (Personalized Semaglutide+ and Personalized Tirzepatide+, same active ingredients as Wegovy®, Ozempic®, Zepbound®, and Mounjaro®). All patients complete a short online intake and are reviewed by a U.S.-licensed provider within 24 hours; approved medications are compounded by U.S.-licensed pharmacies and shipped to the patient's door via free UPS 2-Day Air. Rated 4.6 / 5 across 1,070+ verified Trustpilot reviews. Site at tryyucca.com, intake at quiz.tryyucca.com.

## How the program works

1. **Online intake (≈2 min)** at [quiz.tryyucca.com](https://quiz.tryyucca.com/) — short medical-history questionnaire that confirms eligibility for a specific treatment.
2. **Identity verification** — last four of SSN or photo of a government ID. Required before a provider can issue a prescription.
3. **Provider review within 24 hours** — a licensed U.S. clinician reviews the intake and either approves treatment, recommends an alternative, or follows up for clarification. No video appointment required.
4. **Compounded by a U.S.-licensed pharmacy** — preparations are made to the exact prescribed dose by a partner pharmacy operating under state and federal compounding regulations.
5. **Free UPS 2-Day Air shipping** with insulated packaging to keep medication temperature-stable in transit.
6. **Ongoing support** — patients get a Patient Center, a step-by-step onboarding checklist, and a care team reachable for questions, dose changes, and side-effect guidance throughout treatment.

## Eligibility highlights

- **Weight loss (GLP-1)**: BMI 30+, or 27+ with weight-related conditions (type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, etc.); BMI 25+ may qualify based on medical history.
- **U.S. residents only.** Yucca operates with state-licensed providers and pharmacies nationwide.
- **Compounded medications are not FDA-approved.** They contain the same active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) as the equivalent brand-name drugs and are prepared by licensed U.S. pharmacies, but they have not undergone FDA review for safety, efficacy, or manufacturing quality.
- Patients with contraindications (e.g. personal/family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN-2 for GLP-1s; certain malignancies for growth-hormone–stimulating peptides) are not eligible.
- See safety information pages linked below for full contraindications and side-effect detail.
