About Auren Rx

Auren Rx is a New York-registered telehealth brand selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide at $259 a month on auto-refill, plus a low-dose microdose GLP-1 track at $129, NAD+, sermorelin, glutathione, GHK-Cu, tretinoin and oral minoxidil. It is unusually specific about who provides care: the physician group Wasef Health PC under Michael Wasef MD, and Houston compounding pharmacy VialsRX, both named with addresses and phone numbers. The initial online visit is free and no membership fee is charged until a physician has reviewed you and you choose to proceed.

Pros & Cons

Auren Rx

What we like

  • Names the prescribing group (Wasef Health PC, Michael Wasef MD) and the pharmacy (VialsRX) with full addresses and phone numbers.
  • Carries a genuine LegitScript seal (ID 51130066) served from LegitScript's own asset host.
  • The first online visit is free and no membership fee is charged until a physician approves and you elect to proceed.
  • An "on-demand" mode lets you pause auto-payments without canceling, rather than forcing a full cancellation.

Watch-outs

  • The homepage advertises GLP-1 "from $129/mo", but that is the microdose track; the standard semaglutide and tirzepatide plan is $259-$299.
  • NAD+ is advertised on the homepage "from $125/mo" while its own product page prices it at $179 on auto-refill and $209 monthly.
  • At $259/mo, standard compounded GLP-1 pricing sits well above the market median for this category.
  • Membership fees already paid are non-refundable, and the listed New York address is a mail suite rather than a clinic.

NewSelf

What we like

  • Semaglutide+ from $99.97/mo — among the lowest prices in the dataset
  • All dosages at the same price — no price escalation as dose increases
  • LegitScript certified with 503A licensed pharmacies
  • Third-party potency, sterility, and endotoxicity testing
  • 48 states + Puerto Rico coverage
  • B12/B6 + Glycine enhanced formulations
  • No membership fees

Watch-outs

  • Not available in Mississippi and Louisiana
  • Compounded only — no brand-name options
  • Site also promotes AI health optimization and longevity (broader platform)
