FormidableMD

Patients in its four covered states who want physician-led care and will confirm how long each prescription lasts before comparing costs.

Reasons to consider it

  • Publishes an actual dose-by-dose price table for both semaglutide and tirzepatide, rather than a single 'starting at' figure
  • Boutique physician-led practice with real brick-and-mortar roots, bundling labs, HRT/TRT and urgent care
  • FSA/HSA eligible for consultations and services

What to weigh up

  • The drug prices are per prescription, without a published supply length, so a reliable monthly medication cost is not available
  • Visits cost extra: $199 initially and $99 for follow-ups
  • No compounding pharmacy is named

Aquivia Health

Shoppers who want clinician-reviewed compounded GLP-1s with the option to move up to brand-name Ozempic or Zepbound.

Reasons to consider it

  • Clinical care provided by Open Loop Healthcare Partners, PC — a reused, verified MSO network
  • Named leadership: Steven Bishop MD (CMO), Phillip Gray PharmD (Chief Pharmacist), Tom Foster (President)
  • Publishes every plan price: compounded semaglutide is $249 and tirzepatide $339 per 4 weeks, less on 12-, 24- and 52-week plans, with Ozempic at $1,299 and Zepbound at $1,399 per fill

What to weigh up

  • Billed every 4 weeks, so a year is 13 charges, and the cheapest rates ($179 and $269 a shipment) need a 52-week plan paid in one $2,327 or $3,497 payment; the '$149/mo' and '$179/mo' cards above the plans carry an asterisk the page never explains
  • No public list of states served — you must complete intake to learn if your state qualifies
  • No named 503A compounding pharmacy partner, limiting licensure verification
