Apex MD

Patients who want unlimited visits and labs bundled into a flat month-to-month price and don't mind the medication being combined with NAD/B-12/L-carnitine.

Reasons to consider it

Genuinely all-in flat pricing: 'no other fees' across all doses, with unlimited provider visits and Labcorp labs included
No membership fee, no sign-up fee and no lab fee, stated plainly on the pricing page
Both semaglutide and tirzepatide, in injectable or daily-oral form

What to weigh up

Not single-ingredient GLP-1 — every tier bundles NAD, B-12, and L-carnitine into the compound, so the $299/$399 price isn't directly comparable to a plain-semaglutide/tirzepatide competitor
Compounding pharmacies are never named, only described generically as 'Legit Script Certified pharmacies'
Among the highest per-drug prices of the compounded programs we track, though its formulas are bundled with NAD, B-12 and L-carnitine

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.

Aspire Health

Shoppers in its 30 states who want compounded or brand-name GLP-1s with a full price list up front and a small, named clinical team.

Reasons to consider it

Both compounded and brand-name options (Wegovy and Zepbound), each priced dose by dose before you book
Free first consultation, and you pay only if you decide to move forward
Lab orders with interpretation are part of the monthly care; the labs themselves can be billed to insurance

What to weigh up

The $49/mo care fee is billed on top of the medication (its FAQ still says $75/mo for the program, so confirm the fee before you enroll)
The price rises with your dose, and a vial lasts anywhere from four to ten weeks, so the monthly cost depends on your dose
Lab costs aren't included in the care fee

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.
