Pros & Cons

10rx

What we like

  • Very low pricing — compounded semaglutide $99.67/month and tirzepatide $149.67/month
  • Free online health quiz with board-certified telehealth doctors reviewing eligibility
  • Offers NAD+ and sermorelin alongside GLP-1, for energy and muscle recovery
  • Says it ships to all 50 states with discreet delivery from licensed pharmacy partners

Watch-outs

  • Doesn't publish its legal operating entity, so accountability is hard to pin down
  • Pharmacy partners are described as licensed but none are named
  • No terms-of-service page is posted, and FAQ answers load only via script
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only — no brand-name or oral options
  • No LegitScript or third-party accreditation is shown on the site

The Protocole

What we like

  • Names its medical group, Arora Health & Aesthetics, and its dispensing pharmacy, VialsRX
  • A one-time 4-week supply is sold with no renewal, at $279 for semaglutide or $329 for tirzepatide
  • Monthly plans cost less, $249 for semaglutide and $299 for tirzepatide, with free shipping
  • You get a full refund if the clinician does not approve treatment
  • You can pause or cancel a monthly plan before the next billing date
  • An optional 45-minute video consultation costs $85, deducted from your order if you go ahead
  • FSA and HSA cards are accepted

Watch-outs

  • The lower monthly plan prices appear only at checkout; the website lists the higher one-time prices
  • You must create a password-protected account before the first question
  • Checkout charges your card before a clinician reviews you, though the FAQ says you pay after approval
  • Orders become final once clinical review or fulfillment starts, and shipping fees are not refunded
  • The terms describe a membership fee and no subscriptions, which does not match the checkout
  • The one-time checkout says there are no recurring charges but also shows auto-renewal wording
  • Its Trustpilot profile is unclaimed and has a single review
  • Disputes go to binding individual arbitration under New York law
