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
NP2GO
What we like
- Full per-dose pricing matrix published — you can see the cost at every dose tier before committing
- Two pricing models (Pay As You Go and Month-to-Month Membership) let you match your usage pattern
- Compounded semaglutide starts at $150/mo (0.25 mg, Pay As You Go) — competitive with the market low end
- Covers 39 states plus DC
- Files prior authorizations on your behalf — uncommon for compounded telehealth
- Nurse-practitioner-led care with Obesity Medicine Association membership
Watch-outs
- High-dose tirzepatide runs $475–$600/mo on Pay As You Go (membership at $399/mo is better for high doses)
- Not LegitScript-certified
- Compounding pharmacy partner not named publicly
- Not available in 11 states (AL, GA, IN, LA, MO, MS, NC, OH, SC, TN, WI)
- Peptide, hormone, and aesthetic services are Oklahoma-only
- $99 visit fee every 3 months (PAYG) is on top of the per-dose cost
