8 of the 8 programs below list semaglutide for less than MEDGm's $299 a month. 8 of the 8 list tirzepatide for less than its $399 a month.

MEDGm charges $299 a month for compounded semaglutide injections and $399 for tirzepatide once the $120 welcome coupon lapses, prints every plan length on its product pages, and names the four pharmacies that fill its prescriptions.

Best for: Readers who want the dispensing pharmacies and the prescribing practices named, and who will price the second month rather than the first.

What MEDGm does well

  • Names all four pharmacy partners in its terms, with street addresses, phone numbers and websites, and says which compounding classes they operate under
  • Names seven prescribing professional corporations on its consent page rather than referring to an unnamed medical group
  • Prices three GLP-1 routes — semaglutide injection, semaglutide tablet and tirzepatide — at one, three, six and twelve months, all on the public product pages before any intake
  • Each product page prints the standing month-to-month price beside the first-month coupon price ($299, then $179 for the first month), so the second month's bill is never a surprise
  • Cancellation is available online at any time and takes effect at the end of the paid term

Why readers look for an alternative

  • The GLP-1 page's "Starting at $169" is the twelve-month rate paid upfront ($2,028), and the $179 that follows it is a first-month coupon price; month to month, semaglutide injections cost $299, tablets $369 and tirzepatide $399
  • The treatments FAQ says "your price never increases" on a plan whose price increases by $120 at the first renewal
  • The twelve-month bundle is charged upfront, renews for another full upfront year up to ten days early, and none of it is refundable once charged
  • Zepbound, Wegovy and Ozempic are offered for a $99 or $171 monthly membership plus the cost of the drug, and the drug cost is not shown before the intake
  • The funnel prints "prescription plan approved", a 100% success probability and a 20-minute approval countdown before payment and before any clinician has seen the file
  • The terms say the company is cash-pay only and does not guarantee HSA or FSA eligibility, while the marketing says GLP-1 medications are HSA and FSA eligible
  • The terms claim the fifty states and the District of Columbia while also warning that certain services may not be available in every state, and no state-by-state list is published anywhere
  • A provider may switch you to a different molecule and your enrollment continues by default, but the price that then applies is not stated — tirzepatide costs $100 a month more on every tier
