LovelyMeds

Shoppers who want one price at every dose, oral or injected, with brand-name options in the same catalog.

Reasons to consider it

  • Publishes its prices: compounded semaglutide $175 and tirzepatide $235 a month on the monthly plan, the same at every dose
  • Longer plans lower the monthly price, to $99 and $150 on a 12-month plan
  • Oral options (dissolving tablets, drops, a troche) plus brand-name Wegovy, the Wegovy pill, Foundayo, Zepbound, Mounjaro and Ozempic

What to weigh up

  • The $39 and $90 first-month prices and the $60-off code apply once; month two is billed at the plan rate
  • Doesn't list the states it serves, only that it's available in many but not all
  • No named medical director or compounding pharmacy

Regulatory note: the FDA issued a warning letter to Lovely Meds, Inc. dba Lovely Meds in September 2025. We still list and link to LovelyMeds; 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.
