If you’re wondering which are the most popular products sold on the IsraelPharm website, we’re here to tell you! Let’s take a look at our bestselling medications.
GLP-1 group of drugs
Since the release of Ozempic in 2017, there has been a tremendous surge in the use of GLP-1-based medicines for treating a wide variety of conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, kidney failure and cardiovascular disease. Each one of these on its own occurs in a significant proportion of the population, and together, they represent a major cause of illness in more than half of the general population. As a result, taken as a group, they make up by far the bestselling block on our shelves.
We are able to sell these drugs at significantly lower prices than most US retail pharmacies and through the many months when the rest of the market was suffering severe supply-chain problems, and patients couldn’t get their prescriptions filled through their traditional suppliers, IsraelPharm was able to keep the channels open and ship these products to our customers without undue delay.
Among this group of our best sellers is Ozempic and Rybelsus (semaglutide) and Mounjaro (tirzepatide), specifically for diabetes and heart/kidney problems. Then there is Wegovy for weight loss. As well, we have been able to supply US customers with compounded versions of semaglutide and tirzepatide, sourced from leading pharmacies that deliver prescribed forms of these basic madications that match the requirements of the prescribing physician.
NOWONDER™ (previously called Enovid)
There has been a persistence of coronavirus cases, as it mutates endlessly and keeps coming back in its new forms to infect and re-infect millions of people. NOWONDER™ works to prevent the virus from lodging in the body by trapping the invaders in the nasal cavities before they can get down into the lungs and start to multiply and cause mischief. The inhaler is a portable “sanitizer for the nose,” delivering a dose of nitric oxide that shields against respiratory invasions.
Eliquis
Eliquis (also sold by us both in brand and generic as Apixaban from Glenmark) is a commonly prescribed anticoagulant (blood thinner) prescribed to reduce the risk of clots (deep vein thrombosis – DVT and pulmonary embolism – PE) in patients who have undergone elective hip or knee replacement surgery. It’s also prescribed widely for the prevention of stroke and blood clots in adult patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAFib), who have additional risk factors, and for the treatment of patients who have a history of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE) and reduce the risk of them re-occurring.
Vagifem
Vagifem is a natural form of the female sex hormone estrogen that comes in suppository form and is used to treat menopause symptoms. More than 57% of women suffer from uncomfortable symptoms that can be relieved with this product. The advantage of Vagifem is that it uses a form of estrogen called estradiol, the same type the body naturally makes.
Jardiance
Jardiance is another type of treatment for type 2 diabetes that works differently from the popular GLP-1 drugs. It is a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor that acts in the kidney tubules. Its primary function is to reduce the amount of glucose and sodium returned to the blood. This ensures that glucose and salt are expelled through urine and not returned to the bloodstream. As well as the effect of lowering glucose levels, Jardiance reduces the heart’s workload and decreases the internal pressure inside the kidney’s filtering units. This results in an improvement in sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes, along with reductions in the risk of sustained kidney damage from high salt excretion and a reduction in the risks of heart failure, especially in patients with a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
There we have it. Our top 10 bestselling medications. Did you guess any of them? They score so high on our customers’ ratings because they can buy them from us without hassels, without delays, and without the excessive cost that buying from a US pharmacy typically entails.
Don’t hesitate to consult with your doctor if you have any medical worries or concerns. As always, it is better to be safe than sorry. It is also important to go for checkups if you take medication regularly or suffer from a chronic illness in order to make sure the dosages are still good and the medication is doing what is supposed to be doing.
