MEDGm Review: Price, Pros & Cons

MEDGm sells compounded semaglutide as a weekly injection or a daily dissolving tablet, plus compounded tirzepatide. Each is sold as a plan of one, three, six or twelve months, and the membership fee for the whole term is billed up front.

MEDGm advertises a "starting at" price for each option. MEDGm's FAQ calls that price all-inclusive and says it covers your consultation, a metabolic report and your first month of medication. It doesn't say what the second month costs. That's the number to get before you pay, because a renewal on the same plan can cost more than the advertised start.

Renewals run automatically. A new charge, and the next shipment, can come up to ten days before the renewal date. MEDGm is cash-pay only and doesn't bill insurance.

MEDGm is the platform. Clinicians from OpenLoop Health review your intake after payment and decide whether to prescribe. Some states require a live video or phone visit first.

MEDGm names its four partner pharmacies in its terms, with addresses and phone numbers: RedRock Pharmacy in St. George, Utah; Health Warehouse in Florence, Kentucky; Precision Medicine in Bellmore, New York; and Triad Rx in Daphne, Alabama. Your prescription can be moved between them for availability or pricing reasons. The terms say MEDGm serves all 50 states and Washington, D.C., while noting some services may not be offered everywhere.

You can cancel any time by email or through the patient portal. Do it at least 72 hours before your next billing date, or that cycle is charged and the cancellation starts with the one after. You keep service until the end of the term you paid for.

Refunds are limited:

• Cancel within the first 72 hours, before any service, and you get a full refund.
• If a provider decides you don't qualify, you're refunded.
• On a monthly plan, there's no refund for the month you cancel in.

The refund policy says a multi-month plan is refunded for months in which no medication shipped. The terms describe the membership fee as non-refundable. If you're buying a longer plan, ask MEDGm to confirm in writing which rule applies.

• Ask what month two costs on the plan you choose, and what it renews at.
• MEDGm's GLP-1 page says you can use HSA or FSA funds, but its terms don't guarantee eligibility. Check with your plan administrator.
• A provider can switch you to a different drug. Ask what that would do to your price.
• The sleep, sexual health and hair programs are marked coming soon.
