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
Navio MD
What we like
- LegitScript verified with board-certified providers and US-licensed pharmacies
- Both compounded and brand-name options
- 48-state coverage
- Hours 9am–10pm EST Mon–Sun
- Transparent tiered pricing: you only pay for your current dose
Watch-outs
- Not available in Alabama and Mississippi
- Compounded option is tirzepatide only — no compounded semaglutide listed
- Also offers women's HRT (broader platform)
- Pricing is tiered by dose ('as low as'); the entry prices climb as your dose increases
