About Vea Health

Vea Health is a direct-to-consumer telehealth platform aimed at men's health, performance, and longevity, offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in both oral and injection protocols. Its differentiator is that dual oral-and-injection lineup paired with a clearly published FDA compounded-medication disclaimer. The platform says it serves all 50 states via a clinician network; pricing is gated behind sign-up and not shown publicly.

Semaglutide is $183/mo and tirzepatide $267/mo, with annual plans cutting cost further.
