FitRx

Insured patients trying to get brand-name GLP-1s for less than list price.

Reasons to consider it

  • All 50 states + DC coverage
  • LegitScript certified
  • All four major brand-name GLP-1s (Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro) available if insurance coordination succeeds

What to weigh up

  • The headline '$25/month' price is not a self-pay rate — it's an insurance copay the site itself hedges with 'roughly', and it depends on your plan approving a brand-name drug
  • The most prominent self-pay prices ($151 semaglutide, $216 tirzepatide) are medication only on a 3-month supply; the membership comes on top, and only its discounted $39 first month is printed
  • No named medical director, prescriber, or compounding pharmacy anywhere on the site

Regulatory note: the FDA issued a warning letter to FitRX, LLC dba FitRx in February 2026. We still list and link to FitRx; you should know the letter is on the public record before you decide.

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

Edessa

A six-month committer, or someone willing to click past the front page to the table with the real monthly rate.

Reasons to consider it

  • Each product page carries a plain three-rung table, so the commitment behind every figure is visible
  • "Same price, every dose" is printed on each product page
  • Names its operating entity and a full street address in Las Vegas, Nevada

What to weigh up

  • The front page leads with "Start for just $135", a six-month prepay on the semaglutide injection
  • All three front-page cards quote the six-month rung, so the real monthly rates appear only after a click
  • Its Terms give two corporate forms for the same company in one clause — "Edessa Group, LLC, a Nevada corporation"

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