In this review

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Treatment requires a clinician's assessment. Understand compounded GLP-1 treatment.

Who Joey Med may suit

Shoppers who want to pick a molecule-agnostic 'Core / Plus Core' tier and pay per 4, 8, or 12 weeks rather than a recurring monthly subscription.

Where the value is

  • The site's own embedded pricing data is fully itemized by tier (4/8/12 weeks) for all three products
  • Molecule names are disclosed on the category page even though individual product pages use branded tier names
  • Legal entity is disclosed via the site's own structured data: MD Telehealth Platform LLC DBA Joey Med
  • Ships to all 50 states, according to the site

The tradeoffs

  • The current roster's prices were stale: $279 was the crossed-out list price for semaglutide (actual: $199), and $399 belonged to the High Dose tirzepatide tier, not the standard $275 entry tier
  • Drug names are buried under branded tier names on the product pages themselves
  • No LegitScript verification link exists anywhere on the site
  • No compounding pharmacy or medical director is named anywhere on the site

Joey Med's plans and what they cost

Joey Med sells its compounded GLP-1s under plan names rather than drug names. GLP-1 Core is the semaglutide plan. GLP-1 Core Plus uses what Joey Med calls a dual-action formulation, which is tirzepatide, and adds more provider follow-ups and lifestyle coaching. You pay for a block of weeks at a time, and the longer the block, the less each month costs.

Plan lengthGLP-1 Core (semaglutide)GLP-1 Core Plus (tirzepatide)
4 weeks$199$275
8 weeks$299$375
12 weeks$399$499
24 weeks$599$899
12 months$999$1,599

The four-week prices are shown against higher crossed-out figures, so treat them as sale prices that could change. There's also a High Dose tirzepatide plan for people who've plateaued on standard dosing, at $399 for four weeks. It's cash pay only, with no insurance needed.

Considering Joey Med?

Check the plan total, billing period and cancellation terms before you enroll. A clinician decides whether treatment is appropriate.

Getting approved and getting your order

You fill out an online intake, and a board-certified U.S. provider reviews it. Joey Med says eligible patients may be approved within 24 to 48 hours. Its refund policy allows a longer window, up to five to seven business days, for the chart review and prescribing decision. If you book a scheduled visit, cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours ahead, or you'll pay a $25 no-show fee.

Medication is dispensed by licensed pharmacies that Joey Med doesn't name, and it ships to all 50 states. Product pages say orders ship in one to two days, and the refund policy puts typical delivery at five to seven business days after shipping. An anti-nausea prescription, ondansetron, is available as a $49 add-on visit if you need it.

The company is MD Telehealth Platform LLC, doing business as Joey Med, based in the Tampa area.

How refunds work

Joey Med's refund rules are spelled out by stage:

  • If a provider finds you aren't eligible and no prescription is written, you get back everything you paid.
  • If a prescription is written but the medication hasn't shipped, you also get a full refund.
  • Once the medication has shipped, you get your money back minus a $25 shipping fee and a $199 practitioner consultation fee.

Requests go to support by email or phone with your order or chart number, and they must come in before you've used or opened the medication. Refunds start within 15 business days of the consultation outcome, plus a few days for your bank. Disputing a nonrefundable fee with your card company counts as a breach of its terms, and Joey Med says it will contest those chargebacks.

Before you buy

  • Once an order ships, a refund keeps back $224 in fees. Be sure before you pay for a long block of weeks.
  • Ask which pharmacy will fill your prescription.
  • Check what the four-week price will be when your next block renews.

  • Peter MDPartner

    Semaglutide modeled $149/mo · Tirzepatide modeled $249/mo

    One account across six verticals — TRT, ED, weight loss, GLP-1, men's hair loss and NAD+ — from a physician-prescribed telehealth brand running since 2021, at a renewal price ($249/mo tirzepatide) well above its own $149 first-month headline.

  • WellorithmPartner

    brand-name Semaglutide modeled $899/mo · brand-name Tirzepatide modeled $1,199/mo

    Wellorithm sells brand Wegovy at $899 a month and Zepbound or Ozempic at $1,199, with compounded semaglutide and dissolving tablets offered but not priced until you start the quiz.

  • Gala HealthPartner

    Tirzepatide modeled $179/mo

    Every dose at one published price, with the whole price list visible before you hand over an email — but the only terms it sells on are a yearly subscription at $179 or a three-month plan at $199, so there is no monthly number here to compare with anyone else's.
