Collective
What we like
- The lowest published compounded GLP-1 medication prices we track — $59/month semaglutide and $69/month tirzepatide
- Flat pricing at every dose, so titrating up does not raise the bill
- Unlimited clinician messaging and registered-dietitian access are included rather than upsold
- 21-day free trial on the membership before the annual fee is charged
Watch-outs
- The advertised $59 and $69 exclude a mandatory $199 annual membership — the real first-year cost is $907 and $1,027
- Membership fees are non-refundable and no partial-period refunds are given
- Compounding pharmacies are described only as 'independent, third-party licensed pharmacies' and are never named
- State availability is not published on the marketing site
Gimme Care
What we like
- All 50 states + DC coverage — broadest availability in the dataset
- LegitScript verified
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide in compounded formats
- Microdose options available for both drugs
- No membership fees — price includes medication, physician, support, shipping, and supplies
- Multi-month discount: semaglutide $130/mo on 3-month plan
Watch-outs
- Five states require video/audio visits (KS, LA, MS, NM, WV)
- Compounded only — no brand-name options
- Also offers anti-aging treatments (NAD+, Sermorelin, Glutathione)
