Overview

EllieMD's catalogue is the most formulation-heavy in this group. Rather than plain semaglutide and tirzepatide, it offers GLP-1 and GLP-1/GIP combined with L-carnitine, glycine or NAD, in both injection and oral drop formats — eight distinct products. It works with licensed partner pharmacies described as 503A-compliant facilities, states plainly that compounded medications are not FDA-approved and are not evaluated by the FDA, and refunds your payment if a medical provider determines you are not eligible. Two things to weigh: none of these combination formulations correspond to an FDA-approved product, so their added ingredients are worth discussing with a clinician, and EllieMD publishes no pricing at all.

Pros

  • Both injection and oral drop formats available
  • Partner pharmacies described as 503A-compliant facilities
  • States clearly that compounded medications are not FDA-approved

Cons

  • No pricing published anywhere
  • Combination formulations do not correspond to any FDA-approved product
  • States served are not published
  • Lab requirements and HSA/FSA acceptance are not published
  • Shipping can take up to 10 business days
