About Collective
Collective (collective.org) is a membership-based telehealth platform from the founder of Thrive Market, selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide at a flat price on every dose. Medication is billed separately from a required annual membership, and the program bundles unlimited clinician messaging, dietitian access and express cold shipping.
Read our full Collective review →About Sipra
Sipra is a telehealth platform that prescribes compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as weekly injections, lower-dose microdose injections or dissolving tablets, with physicians from MDI Medical Group. There is no month-to-month option: the shortest plan is three months, paid up front once a physician approves, at $189/mo for semaglutide and $249/mo for tirzepatide. Longer plans cost less per month, the price does not rise with your dose, and shipping is free.
Read our full Sipra review →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
Sipra
What we like
- Every plan length, monthly rate and plan total is published on the pricing page before you answer a single question
- One price at every dose: the rate is set by plan length and does not rise as your physician steps the dose up
- Medication, physician review, dose changes, messaging and expedited shipping are in the plan price, with no membership fee
- Your card is charged only after a physician approves treatment; if treatment is declined, you owe nothing
- Six GLP-1 formats: semaglutide or tirzepatide as weekly injections, lower-dose microdose injections or dissolving tablets
- Names its prescribing group (MDI Medical Group) and its pharmacy partners in its terms
- Cancel online in your account, with no phone call or retention script
- HSA and FSA eligible; metformin, low-dose naltrexone, menopause hormone therapy and a lab panel are on the same account
Watch-outs
- No month-to-month option: the shortest plan is three months, charged as one up-front payment (for example, $567 for semaglutide)
- The headline "from $149/mo" is the 12-month rate; standard semaglutide costs $189/mo on the shortest plan
- Three-month plans are not refundable once a physician approves, even if nothing has shipped yet
- Leaving a 6- or 12-month plan early re-prices the months you keep at the higher shorter-plan rate before the rest is refunded
- Plans renew automatically at the rate posted at renewal; cancel at least 13 days before the period ends to stop the next order
- No phone support is published; help is by email, on-site chat and portal messaging
- A new brand: its current terms and refund policy took effect in October 2026, so there is little track record to judge
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved
