Best Compounded GLP-1 Providers 2026
Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide cost a fraction of the brand-name versions, which is why most online weight-loss programs sell them. But compounded drugs are not FDA-approved, and the FDA does not evaluate their safety, effectiveness or quality — so the pharmacy behind your vial matters enormously. We ranked these providers primarily on one question: how much do they actually tell you?
The Quick Answer
Precision Telemed ranks first because it is the only provider here you can genuinely verify: eleven clinicians named with NPI numbers, plus a published certificate of analysis showing purity and potency figures for the actual product. PlexusDx and Cora Health both name every pharmacy and prescriber involved, Nexlife publishes independent batch testing, and Aspire Health is the most candid about what compounded status actually means.

FDA actions affecting providers on this page
FDA has issued warning letters to telehealth companies over false or misleading claims about compounded GLP-1 products. 4 providers ranked on this page received one. A warning letter is FDA's stated position that violations occurred — not a court finding, a recall, or a determination that any patient was harmed — and companies often correct the cited material.

Our Picks, Ranked
Precision Telemed
Eleven named clinicians with NPIs and a published certificate of analysis
Precision Telemed publishes the two things that let you check a provider rather than trust it. First, eleven prescribing clinicians named with credentials, medical school and NPI number — including medical director Dr. Joseph Palumbo, DO (NPI 1043478878) — so you can verify every one against the national registry before paying anything. Second, a certificate of analysis with real figures: semaglutide 1mg/2mL at 99.4% purity and 100.2% potency, sterility and endotoxins passed, compounded in a 503A state board pharmacy. Pricing is flat at every dose from $139.99/month, with no membership and no subscription requirement, across all 50 states. It does not name the NABP-accredited pharmacy itself, which is the one gap.
Pricing: Semaglutide from $139.99/month, tirzepatide from $179.99/month, same price at every dose
Pros
- Names eleven prescribing clinicians with NPI numbers you can verify independently
- Publishes a certificate of analysis with real purity, potency, sterility and endotoxin figures
- Same price at every dose — no escalation as you titrate
- No membership fees, no subscription requirement, no annual contract
Cons
- Compounded only — no brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound route
- Lab requirements before starting are not published
- Cancellation and refund terms are not published
- The pharmacy partner is described as NABP accredited but not named
PlexusDx
Genetics-led GLP-1 care with microdosing from $129/month
PlexusDx names all six compounding partners — Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts, Casa Pharma Rx, The Pharmacy Hub and Foothills — plus both prescribing physicians with NPI numbers, Dr. Ana Lisa Carr, MD (1689841744) and Dr. Kelly Tenbrink, MD (1346482684). All-inclusive pricing with provider check-ins built in runs $149/month for semaglutide and $249 for tirzepatide, with a $129 microdose tier, in weekly injection or daily oral tablet form across all 50 states. Its genetics angle is an upsell rather than settled science, and shipping at five to seven days is slower than most.
Pricing: Microdose $129/month, semaglutide from $149/month, tirzepatide from $249/month — all-inclusive
Pros
- Names both prescribing physicians with verifiable NPI numbers
- Names all six compounding pharmacy partners
- Microdose GLP-1 at $129/month, the lowest tier on the platform
- Weekly injection and daily oral tablet formats both offered
Cons
- The genetic test is a separate $298 product, discounted to $99 only after a first order
- Compounded only — no brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound route
- Genetic guidance for GLP-1 dosing is an emerging area, not settled standard of care
- Cancellation and refund terms are not published
Cora Health
All-inclusive compounded GLP-1s from $99/month on annual plans
Cora names both fulfilment pharmacies — Hallandale Pharmacy, PCAB-accredited and operating since 2003, and VialsRx — and states outright that it does not prescribe: that sits with Wasef Health, PC under medical director Dr. Michael Wasef, MD. All-inclusive pricing runs $99–$175/month for semaglutide and $135–$225 for tirzepatide with no membership fee and no dose escalation, in all 50 states with free shipping and HSA/FSA accepted. The low end requires a twelve-month commitment, which is the real trade-off.
Pricing: Semaglutide $99–$175/month, tirzepatide $135–$225/month, all-inclusive
Pros
- $99/month all-inclusive on the annual semaglutide plan
- No membership fee and no price increase as your dose escalates
- Names both fulfilment pharmacies — Hallandale Pharmacy and VialsRx
- Names the prescribing group and medical director outright
Cons
- The $99 and $135 headline prices require a 12-month commitment
- Month-to-month pricing is materially higher at $175 and $225
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved as finished products
- Lab work requirements are not published
Trimi Health
All-in $99/month with named 503A pharmacies and overnight shipping
Trimi names its 503A partner pharmacies — VialsRx and GreenwichRx — and names the clinical network behind its prescribers, Arora Health, which almost nobody in this category does. It pairs that with some of the cleanest pricing here: $99/month for compounded semaglutide and $125 for tirzepatide covering medication, clinician visits, check-ins and free overnight shipping in one fee, across all 50 states, FSA/HSA eligible. The rates are quoted on annual plans.
Pricing: All-in from $99/month on an annual plan
Pros
- One flat fee covers medication, visits, check-ins and shipping
- Names its 503A partner pharmacies (VialsRx and GreenwichRx)
- Compounded semaglutide $99/month, tirzepatide $125/month
- Available in all 50 states
Cons
- Headline pricing is tied to annual plans
- Month-to-month pricing is not published
- Lab requirements are not published
- Cancellation and refund terms are not published
LeanDose
Publishes its pharmacy's street address and offers Texas clinics
LeanDose publishes not just the name of its compounding pharmacy but its street address, phone number and email — Striker Pharmacy, 1330 Pin Oak Rd, Katy, TX 77494, an FDA-registered compounder. It also lists all 17 telemedicine states by name rather than claiming vague coverage, and backs the online service with physical clinics in Texas. First-month pricing is $159 for semaglutide and $279 for tirzepatide with no membership. The gap worth pressing on: it publishes first-month pricing but not what you pay in month two.
Pricing: Semaglutide $159 first month, tirzepatide GLP-1/GIP $279 first month; ongoing pricing not published
Pros
- Names its pharmacy in full, including street address, phone and email
- Lists all 17 telemedicine states by name rather than claiming vague coverage
- In-person clinic care available in Texas alongside the online service
- No memberships and no hidden fees
Cons
- Only first-month pricing is published — ongoing monthly cost is not stated
- Just 17 states, so most of the country is not covered
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved as finished products
- No brand-name option
Nexlife
Every compounded batch third-party tested for potency and sterility
Nexlife publishes what independent labs found in the product, not just who made it: every compounded prescription is evaluated for potency, sterility (against USP 797 standards), pH and endotoxins. For a category where the central worry is what is actually in the vial, that is a meaningful differentiator. Semaglutide starts at $139/month and tirzepatide at $169, FSA/HSA eligible with free expedited shipping. It is candid in its own disclaimers that compounded medication is not FDA-approved, but it does not name the network pharmacies individually — and it received an FDA warning letter dated June 8, 2026 (MARCS-CMS 730096) over claims on its site, which is worth weighing against the testing story.
Pricing: Semaglutide from $139/month, tirzepatide from $169/month; FSA and HSA eligible
Pros
- Publishes independent third-party testing for potency, sterility, pH and endotoxin on every batch
- Sterility testing referenced against USP 797 sterile compounding standards
- Competitive pricing — semaglutide from $139/month, tirzepatide from $169/month
- All plans FSA and HSA eligible
Cons
- Compounded only — no brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound route
- Pharmacies are described as a network but not individually named
- State availability is not published
- Cancellation and refund terms are not published
Embody names four partner pharmacies — RedRock, Health Warehouse, Precision Compounding and Triad Rx — plus OpenLoop Health as its clinician network, and refunds the first month in full if a provider decides not to prescribe. Provider review typically lands within 24 hours, prescriptions received before 2pm Central ship the same day, and every shipment is insured against loss. Coverage is 49 states, excluding Louisiana. The catch is pricing volatility: promotional rates of $69 and $119 sit against regular prices of $299 and $349, so confirm what renews.
Pricing: Semaglutide from $69/month promotional (regular $299); tirzepatide from $119/month (regular $349)
Pros
- Names four partner pharmacies and the clinician network outright
- No membership fee, no contract, cancel anytime on month-to-month
- Full refund of the first month if the prescription is not approved
- Provider review typically within 24 hours, often under five
Cons
- Promotional pricing ($69/$119) is far below the regular $299/$349 — confirm what renews
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved as finished products
- Not available in Louisiana; Nebraska is restricted to age 19+
- No lab work is mentioned as part of the intake
OrderlyMeds
Names its pharmacies, ships to all 50 states, no membership fee
OrderlyMeds names the pharmacies filling its prescriptions — SmartPharmaRx, Casa and PerfectionRx/PerfectRx — and identifies them as 503A pharmacies led by credentialed pharmacists. It also publishes both the intro rate and the ongoing rate, so the step-up from $74 to $149/month on semaglutide is visible before you sign up. Providers are licensed in all 50 states. In June 2026 FDA issued OrderlyMeds a warning letter (MARCS-CMS 728291) over claims about compounded GLP-1 products on orderlymeds.com; read it before deciding.
Pricing: From $74 first month, $149/month thereafter
Pros
- Names its partner pharmacies rather than describing them vaguely
- Publishes both intro pricing and the ongoing rate
- Providers licensed in all 50 states
- No separate membership fee disclosed
Cons
- Price roughly doubles after the introductory month
- Lab requirements are not published
- Cancellation and refund terms are not published
- Does not accept insurance
Shapely names its pharmacy category clearly — state-licensed 503A and 503B compounding pharmacies — and wraps the medication in real clinical structure: monthly video visits, monthly dietitian visits, recent labs strongly recommended at a $75 flat rate, and a smart scale. Compounded semaglutide starts at $99/month and tirzepatide at $166/month.
Pricing: Membership $99/month (promo $49) + medication from $99/month
Pros
- In network with Medicare and most PPO plans for visits
- Compounded semaglutide starts at $99/month
- Publishes dose-tiered medication pricing openly
- Flat $75 lab rate for uninsured patients
Cons
- Available in only four states
- $99/month membership required on top of medication
- Compounded medications are not reimbursed by insurance
- Cancellation and refund terms are not published
Aspire Health
Per-dose vial pricing, free consultation, $49/month care fee
Aspire states outright that its compounded medications have not undergone the same FDA review for safety, efficacy or manufacturing quality as commercially manufactured drugs — the clearest disclosure we encountered. It backs that with per-vial pricing at every dose ($129–$189 semaglutide, $149–$299 tirzepatide), a free consultation and HSA/FSA acceptance.
Pricing: $49/month care + compounded medication from $129 per vial
Pros
- Publishes per-vial pricing at every dose level
- Free new patient consultation
- Low $49/month medical care fee
- HSA and FSA cards accepted for services and compounded medications
Cons
- Insurance not accepted for visits
- Consultation fees generally non-refundable once a provider has reviewed your case
- All medication sales are final once shipped
- Available in a limited set of states
Ivím works with FDA-inspected, state-regulated compounding pharmacies and states plainly that compounded semaglutide is not FDA-approved. Its $74.99/month membership includes unlimited 1:1 provider consults, 24/7 care team access and functional nutritional counseling, and it confirms HSA/FSA cards are accepted despite the lack of insurance coverage.
Pricing: Membership $74.99/month + compounded semaglutide from $149/month
Pros
- Compounded semaglutide starts at $149/month
- Free initial provider consultation
- Unlimited 1:1 provider consults included in membership
- HSA and FSA cards accepted
Cons
- $74.99/month membership is among the higher fees in this category
- Compounded semaglutide is not covered by insurance
- Lab requirements, shipping details and states served are not published
- Refund terms are behind a policy link rather than stated on the page
Lemonaid Health
Brand-name and compounded GLP-1s with published price tiers
Lemonaid is useful precisely because it sells both routes and prices them side by side: compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide from $199–$299/month against brand-name Ozempic at $1,199 and Wegovy at $1,599. Seeing both on one page makes the real trade-off legible. It does not, however, publish its pharmacy partners.
Pricing: Membership $49/month + medication from $199/month
Pros
- Publishes medication prices openly instead of requiring a quiz first
- Offers both compounded and brand-name GLP-1 options
- Lower-cost microdose plans at $199/month
- Multi-month plans reduce the monthly medication cost
Cons
- $49/month membership is charged on top of medication
- Cash-pay only — no insurance accepted for any fees
- Not yet available in all 50 states
- Does not publish its pharmacy partners or shipping cadence
24hrdoc offers compounded semaglutide as weekly injections at $149/month, oral semaglutide as tablets or drops at $179/month, compounded tirzepatide at $239/month, and a separate clinically supervised microdosing protocol. It states clearly that it is not a pharmacy and that licensed pharmacies handle fulfilment. FSA/HSA accepted.
Pricing: From $149/month (sale price; regularly $249)
Pros
- Injectable, oral and microdose GLP-1 formats all available
- Shows sale and regular pricing side by side
- FSA and HSA accepted for most patients
- Fast and free discreet shipping
Cons
- Does not accept insurance for weight-loss treatment
- Not a pharmacy — does not carry or ship medicines itself
- Available in most, but not all, U.S. states
- Lab requirements and refund terms are not published on the program page
TrimRx
Compounded GLP-1s with labs and unlimited support from $179/month
TrimRx bundles doctor consultations, lab work and unlimited support into plans advertised from $179/month, and says its medications come from FDA-registered and inspected pharmacies. Including labs is genuinely uncommon here. The offsetting problem is verification — TrimRx publishes very little beyond that headline, with no dose-level pricing or state list.
Pricing: Plans from $179/month
Pros
- Lab work bundled into the program rather than billed separately
- Doctor consultations and unlimited support included
- Free assessment quiz to check eligibility
- Medications sourced from FDA-registered and inspected pharmacies
Cons
- Very little detail published beyond the $179/month headline
- No medication-by-medication price breakdown
- States served are not published
- Shipping, insurance, HSA/FSA, cancellation and refund terms are not published
Brello advertises compounded semaglutide with B6 at $133/month and a 3-month plan cut from $599 to $399, and states directly that compounded drug products are not FDA-approved. Weigh that against its structure: payment is taken before the medical intake, and refunds close 24 hours after provider review, minus a $50 professional services fee.
Pricing: $133/month special; 3-month plan $399
Pros
- Among the lowest advertised compounded semaglutide prices at $133/month
- 3-month plan discounted from $599 to $399
- Includes app support, virtual fitness and nutrition classes
- Cancel at any time
Cons
- You pay before completing the medical intake form
- Refunds carry a $50 professional services fee
- Refund window is only 24 hours after provider review
- States served are not listed on the product page

What Compounded Actually Means
A compounded medication is prepared by a pharmacy rather than manufactured by the drug's original maker. The pharmacy combines the active ingredient into a finished product — sometimes with additives such as B6 or B3 that are not part of the FDA-approved version.
The critical distinction: compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. The FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality. Several of the providers on this page say so on their own websites, and that candour is part of why they rank where they do.
Two pharmacy categories come up repeatedly. 503A pharmacies compound for individual patients against a specific prescription. 503B outsourcing facilities compound in larger batches and are subject to additional FDA oversight. Shapely and Precision Telemed cite both categories; OrderlyMeds and Cora Health cite 503A specifically.
Naming the pharmacy is the clearest signal a provider can send, and only a minority do it. Cora Health names Hallandale Pharmacy and VialsRx. PlexusDx names six partners. Embody names four. LeanDose publishes its compounder's full street address. Trimi names VialsRx and GreenwichRx. Everyone else asks you to trust an unnamed “network” — which may well be fine, but you cannot check it.
A step further is publishing what independent testing found in the product itself. Precision Telemed puts up a certificate of analysis with purity and potency numbers, and Nexlife states every batch is tested for potency, sterility, pH and endotoxins. That is the strongest disclosure available in this category today.
FDA Has Been Warning Telehealth Companies — Here's How to Check
This is the single most useful vetting tool most people do not know exists. FDA publishes every warning letter it issues, in a searchable database, and it has been issuing them to telehealth companies over claims made about compounded GLP-1 products.
In September 2025 FDA sent a batch of letters to telehealth firms, followed by further rounds in February, March and June 2026, over false or misleading promotional claims about compounded GLP-1s. We have verified 22 of these against providers reviewed on this site: OrderlyMeds, Maximus, Hims & Hers (under its Hers brand), MEDVi, WeightCare, Remedy Meds, altRx (as Trinity HealthCare Supply, LLC), Ivím, 24hrdoc, SkinnyRx, Zeuss, Zealthy, Bioverse, Curex, NativeMed, VivioMD, Mint Med, Nexlife, Joi + Blokes, Alan and MyStart Health.
Two of those are worth calling out because they are widely recommended elsewhere. Remedy Meds received a letter dated September 9, 2025 (MARCS-CMS 716830) over claims that its compounded products had the “same active ingredient as” Ozempic and Mounjaro. altRx's parent company received one dated June 8, 2026 (MARCS-CMS 728236). Neither fact is disqualifying on its own — but you should know it before you enrol, and both are on our review pages with links to the letters.
What a warning letter is: FDA's stated position that violations occurred, usually about how a product was marketed. What it is not: a court finding, a recall, or evidence that a specific patient was harmed. Companies routinely respond and correct the cited material, sometimes within weeks.
Check any provider yourself before enrolling — it takes about a minute:
- Open FDA's warning letter database and search the company name — and its legal entity name, which is often different from the brand.
- Search the term telehealth to see the letters sent to this sector, as FDA itself suggests in its guidance page for telehealth companies promoting compounded drugs.
- Match on the entity and website, not a similar name. “Medica Weight Loss” and “Medi-Weightloss” are different companies, as are “Ready Med” and “ReadyRx”.
- Read what the letter actually alleges. A claim-wording problem is a different thing from a sterility or dosing problem.
Where a provider we review has received one, we say so on their review page with a link to the letter, rather than quietly leaving it out.
How to Vet a Compounded GLP-1 Provider
Ask these questions before you pay. A provider that will not answer them in writing is telling you something:
- Which pharmacy compounds my medication? A name is better than a category. A category is better than nothing.
- Is it 503A or 503B, and is it licensed in my state?
- What exactly is in the formulation? Additives such as B6, B3 or ondansetron are common and are not part of the FDA-approved product.
- What will I pay at my maintenance dose? Not the starter dose — the dose you will settle on months from now.
- What happens if I am declined after paying? Brello Health, for example, refunds within 24 hours of provider review minus a $50 fee.
- Who do I contact about a side effect? Unlimited provider messaging is meaningfully different from an email address.
Compounded Pricing Compared
Published compounded prices across the providers we researched, taken from their own sites:
- Semaglutide: OrderlyMeds $74 first month then $149 · OurView $75 · yourEra from $79 · altRx $89 promotional (regular $199) · IVY RX $97 · Trimi $99 all-in · Cora $99 on annual (to $175) · Shapely from $99 · Mint Med $106 all doses · Citizen Meds $125 · Aspire $129–$189 per vial · Brello $133 · Bodybuilding Health+ $139 on 12 months · Nexlife from $139 · Precision Telemed from $139.99 · Ivím from $149 · 24hrdoc $149 · PlexusDx from $149 · LeanDose $159 first month · Amble $135–$179 by term · Call-On-Doc $250 · Lemonaid $299
- Tirzepatide: Trimi $125 all-in · Cora $135 on annual (to $225) · OurView $135 · Citizen Meds $145 · altRx $149 promotional (regular $299) · Aspire $149–$299 per vial · OrderlyMeds $149 first month then $299 · yourEra from $159 · Bodybuilding Health+ $159 on 12 months · Shapely from $166 · Nexlife from $169 · Precision Telemed from $179.99 · 24hrdoc $239 · PlexusDx from $249 · Ivím from $250 · LeanDose $279 first month · Heally from $299 · Lemonaid $299 ($229 on a 6-month plan)
- Microdose tiers: a lower-dose option now exists at several providers, useful for maintenance or for people below the usual BMI thresholds — IVY RX $77 · Dr. B from $113 · PlexusDx $129 · yourEra from $179 · Independent Wellness $199
Remember to add membership fees where they apply: $19.99/month at PlushCare, $49 at Lemonaid and Aspire, $74.99 at Ivím, and $99 at Shapely. A low medication price plus a high membership can cost more than the reverse.
Two structural traps to price around. Several of the cheapest headline rates are promotional — altRx's $89 is against a regular $199, and Embody's $69 against $299 — so always ask what renews. And the lowest all-in numbers from Cora, Amble, Bodybuilding Health+ and Trimi require annual commitments. Work out the twelve-month total, not the first invoice.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are compounded GLP-1 medications safe?
Compounded medications are not FDA-approved, and the FDA does not evaluate their safety, effectiveness or quality — providers including Ivím Health, Aspire Health and Brello Health state this on their own sites. That does not mean they are unsafe, but it does mean the quality assurance rests on the compounding pharmacy rather than FDA review. Discuss the trade-off with a licensed clinician.
Which compounded GLP-1 provider names its pharmacy?
Two do. OrderlyMeds names SmartPharmaRx, Casa and PerfectionRx/PerfectRx, and Trimi Health names VialsRx and GreenwichRx. Others describe pharmacies only by category: Shapely cites state-licensed 503A and 503B pharmacies, Ivím Health cites FDA-inspected state-regulated compounding pharmacies, EllieMD cites 503A-compliant facilities, and TrimRx cites FDA-registered and inspected pharmacies without naming them.
What is the difference between a 503A and 503B pharmacy?
A 503A pharmacy compounds medication for an individual patient against a specific prescription. A 503B outsourcing facility compounds in larger batches and is subject to additional FDA oversight including current good manufacturing practice requirements. Shapely cites both; OrderlyMeds cites 503A.
Why do some compounded GLP-1s include B6 or B12?
Some pharmacies add vitamins such as B6 (pyridoxine) or B3 to the formulation — Brello Health compounds with B6 and Aspire Health with B3. These additives are not part of the FDA-approved product and their clinical rationale should be discussed with the prescribing clinician rather than assumed to be beneficial.
Does insurance cover compounded GLP-1 medications?
Generally no. Shapely states compounded medications are not reimbursed by insurance and Ivím Health states compounded semaglutide is not covered. However, several providers accept HSA and FSA cards for compounded medication, including Ivím Health, Aspire Health and 24hrdoc.
What is the cheapest compounded GLP-1 program?
On ongoing rather than promotional pricing, yourEra starts at $79/month, IVY RX at $97, and Trimi Health, Cora Health and Shapely at $99. Mint Med charges $106 for all doses. Cheaper headline rates exist — OrderlyMeds at $74 and altRx at $89 — but both step up sharply, to $149 and $199 respectively. Compare the maintenance-dose price plus any membership fee, not the first-month rate.
