Pros & Cons

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

MANÜ Telehealth

What we like

  • Compounded GLP-1s advertised from about $4-$5/day
  • 100% online with free discreet shipping and no insurance needed
  • Compounds exclusively from US 503A pharmacies
  • Add-on options like MIC Ultraburn and NAD+

Watch-outs

  • Per-dose pricing is gated behind login/signup, not public
  • State availability changes and is only confirmed at signup
  • Compounded medications are not FDA-evaluated
