Visit Aurelius Health GroupThe verdict
Magnolia Regenerative Medicine takes it, leading the Cost-Efficiency Index 57 to 56. Magnolia Regenerative Medicine charges $119 a month for compounded semaglutide and $199 for tirzepatide once you reach the intake, advertises $99 and $179 that are really three-month prepay rates, and publishes a cancellation address that cannot receive mail. Aurelius Health Group still earns a C — Cost-first shoppers who want transparent, care-inclusive compounded tirzepatide microdosing.

Magnolia Regenerative Medicine
57/100Where the value is
- Publishes an explicit 26-state telehealth list rather than an unverifiable nationwide claim
- Prices a new-patient titration plan separately from a continuing-patient plan, so the cost of stepping up a dose is visible rather than assumed
- Runs two physical clinics and says so, which is unusual for a compounded GLP-1 seller
The tradeoffs
- The advertised "starting at $99" and "starting at $179" are three-month prepay figures; the month-to-month rates are $119 and $199, and the arithmetic behind that is on the site itself
- A first-time patient cannot buy the advertised price at all — answering that this is your first time yields titration plans at $119 and $199 a month
Aurelius Health Group
56/100Where the value is
- Pricing fully published and bundled: $89 first month, then $199/mo all-in — more transparent than most compounded brands
- LegitScript Certified
- Care-inclusive model: consults, monthly monitoring, and secure messaging rather than Rx-only
The tradeoffs
- The advertised $89 is a first-month new-patient rate; every month after it is $199
- This is a 1 mg microdose program and nothing else — no labeled therapeutic dose is sold, so it is not an alternative to a full-dose prescription
