Texas Access & Process
What Texas Rules Apply to an Online GLP-1 Prescription?
This section covers statewide access and process for Texas patients. For total cost, see the Texas GLP-1 cost breakdown.
A Texas clinician establishes the relationship first
Before any prescription is issued, a valid patient–provider relationship must be established through a clinical evaluation. Telemedicine standards are set by the Texas Medical Board under 22 Tex. Admin. Code § 174, consistent with Texas Occupations Code Chapter 111.
Some Texas cases need a live visit
Many Texas cases can be completed asynchronously. A synchronous (live) visit may be required in certain clinical situations, as determined by the reviewing provider.
No clinic trip, anywhere in Texas
Care is fully online, so patients in Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, and rural Texas complete intake from home. Eligibility still depends on individual clinical review and Texas rules.
Texas-licensed prescribing providers
Prescribing providers hold active Texas medical licenses, and telehealth consent is obtained and documented in line with Texas law. Open Water Rx does not prescribe or dispense medications.
