About Remi Meds
Remi Meds is a DTC compounded-GLP-1 telehealth platform offering per-dose-tier compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide-with-B12, plus NAD+, Sermorelin, and Glutathione add-ons. It names its pharmacy partner (Strive Pharmacy, Gilbert, AZ) and clinical network (Beluga Health), and surfaces full per-tier pricing rather than a floor-only "as low as." Semaglutide runs $249–$369/mo and tirzepatide $349–$639/mo. (Distinct from Remedy Meds.)

Remi Meds
What we like
- Names its compounding pharmacy (Strive Pharmacy, Gilbert AZ) — stronger transparency than peers
- LegitScript verification badge on the homepage
- Publishes 503A FDCA compliance language on the tirzepatide page
- Per-dose-tier pricing fully shown — no 'as low as' floor-only obfuscation
- Operating corporate entity disclosed (T-C Health Co)
- Does not sell retatrutide — aligned with current FDA enforcement
- Clear non-affiliation disclaimer for Wegovy/Ozempic/Mounjaro trademarks
Watch-outs
- No named medical director, founder, or physician on any public page
- States served not listed — 'nationwide' claim with no per-state detail
- Clinical care runs through Beluga Health, a network a 2026 StatNews analysis tied to many FDA-warned GLP-1 companies (Remi Meds itself not FDA-warned)
- Year founded and corporate history are opaque
- Two phone numbers and a secondary 'Rekindle RX' email hint at shared infrastructure
- Mailing address (Leesburg FL) doesn't match the operating-entity state (California)
- HIPAA notice present but no third-party security attestation
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
