1 of the 8 programs below lists semaglutide for less than Strut Health's $99 a month. 2 of the 8 list tirzepatide for less than its $149 a month.
Strut sells compounded semaglutide from $99 a month as a lozenge or $129 as a weekly injection, and tirzepatide from $149, all on auto-refill.
Best for: Anyone optimizing total monthly outlay who will keep an auto-refill running, and anyone whose real objection is the needle.
What Strut Health does well
- Low auto-refill prices: semaglutide is $99 as a lozenge or $129 as an injection, and tirzepatide is $149 as an injection
- Lozenges for both molecules give you a needle-free choice beside the weekly injection
- Free physician visit, free shipping and unlimited free follow-ups are included rather than billed separately
- Cancel, pause or delay your subscription yourself, as long as you do it 48 hours before the order processes
- Medication ships straight to you, usually in about two business days, with 2-day express on most first orders
Why readers look for an alternative
- Every headline price is the auto-refill rate, which Strut says is 13% to 21% below a one-off order
- Once medication leaves the pharmacy it can't be returned or refunded
- Asynchronous by design: their FAQ notes some states need no phone consultation, so you may never speak to the prescriber
- Compounded only, with no brand-name route and no published lab program
- Not available in Arkansas
