## Story

Harris Teeter said on Friday customers can now access an expanded range of GLP-1 medications and other weight management treatments at its pharmacy locations across its markets.

The grocery chain said the offerings are intended to provide more streamlined access to prescriptions and related nutrition support. Prescriptions from any licensed provider can be filled at Harris Teeter pharmacies, according to the company.

“Access to effective weight management support shouldn’t be complicated or cost-prohibitive,” said Lindsay Capozzziello, Harris Teeter’s director of health and wellness.

The company said pharmacists and registered dietitians are available to provide guidance on medication use, including how the drugs work and potential side effects. Customers can also receive assistance identifying manufacturer savings programs and other payment options intended to reduce out-of-pocket costs.

In addition to prescription services, Harris Teeter said it offers nutrition support through dietitian consultations and in-store food options, including items high in protein and fiber. Over-the-counter products such as protein powders, fiber supplements and vitamins are also available.

The retailer also highlighted its OptUP program, which assigns scores to food products to help customers compare nutritional value.

Harris Teeter said it will honor manufacturer-sponsored savings programs, including Eli Lilly’s KwikPen Self-Pay Savings Card for Zepbound, subject to eligibility requirements and other terms. The company said the program may allow some self-pay patients to reduce costs at participating pharmacy locations.
