The better fit depends on what is included in your quote. A lower advertised price can require prepayment, apply to a starting dose or leave out a separate fee.

Rixa Health

Patients who want injections or tablets at a published all-inclusive price, with a named physician lead.

Reasons to consider it

  • Named medical director with stated credentials (Timothy Scott, D.O.)
  • Publishes every dose's price, and each covers medication, shipping and visits
  • Oral dissolving tablets as well as injections: semaglutide from $140 and tirzepatide from $225 per 30 days

What to weigh up

  • Prices are per 4 weeks, so you pay 13 times a year, not 12
  • The price rises with the dose: semaglutide goes from $195 to $310 and tirzepatide from $280 to $525 per 4 weeks
  • The pricing page still shows template placeholder text ('Your description goes here') under each dose

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

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.
