The Nimbus WeightWise RX™ program uses compounded GLP-1 medications to help you lose weight. Your prescription will be shipped to your door. Inside the package, you will find alcohol wipes, a vial with your prescription, and an insulin syringe. Please review the dosing instructions before injecting any medication.
How to:
1. Start by washing, or sanitizing, your hands.
2. Remove the foil from the top of the vial, then use an alcohol swab to wipe the top of the vial clean.
3. Carefully insert the needle into the vial and slowly begin drawing the medication into the syringe. The prescription may flow better if you turn the bottle upside down. Note, the prescription may be thick so you might need to push it back into the vial and re-draw it into the syringe to minimize air bubbles and get the correct dose.
4. Take a new alcohol wipe and gently wipe the injection site in a ciruclar motion to sterilize and allow it to dry.
5. Confirm you have drawn the correct dosage.
6. Hold the syringe in one hand and using a motion similar to throwing a dart, insert the needle into your stomach tissue or your thigh.
7. Slowly press down the stopper until all medication has been dispensed.
8. Remove the needle, swab any blood droplets with an alcohol wipe, and you are all done!

All Nimbus prescription creams use a Topi-CLICK dispenser to make applying the correct amount of cream as easy as twisting the bottom of the container until you hear the desired number of clicks. We recommend you apply the cream to your inner thigh using the dispenser then rub it in with your forearm until it's absorbed each evening at about the same time. By using your forearm instead your fingers, you prevent the transference of the medication to anyone else. You can wash the area off in the morning if you like. Finally, we also recommend switching back and forth between your left inner thigh and right inner thigh each day to maximize effectiveness.
Step 1) Read the label and determine the number of clicks to dispense.
Step 2) Apply the cream to your thigh using the dispenser.
Step 3) Rub in any excess cream with your forearm to prevent transferring the medication to anyone else.

Most hair loss products can feel greasy or difficult to apply, but at Nimbus, we remove things like PEG (polyethylene glycol) from our formulas to make our prescriptions more scalp friendly. The goal when applying the solution is to apply a 1/2 dropperful dose to the affected area(s) and rub it in. Repeat this process one more time. Two applications should equal 1ml of total medication, which should last you 30 days. Note, we ship the 30ml solution in a 60ml bottle so if your bottle looks like it's only half full, that's normal! Click here to watch a video about applying our solution.
1) Wash your hands.
2) Apply 1/2 a dropper of medication to the affected areas.
3) Repeat step 2.
4) Gently massage it into the scalp until your fingers are nearly dry.
5) Wash your hands.

With most hair loss products, they can feel greasy or difficult to apply, but at Nimbus, we remove things like PEG (polyethylene glycol) from our formulas to make the foam more scalp friendly. The goal when applying the foam is to massage it into the scalp – don’t use it like you would a styling product because that will keep the medication on the hair shafts vs. where it needs to be on your scalp. Dispense the amount of foam as indicated on the label, rub it on the fingertips of both hands, and massage it into your scalp for 30 seconds. This should feel good.
1) Wash your hands.
2) Dispense one pump of the gel onto your fingertips.
3) Gently massage it into the scalp until your fingers are nearly dry.
4) Wash your hands.
