Where the value is
- A 503A compounding pharmacy that lists tirzepatide and semaglutide under GLP-1 therapies
- Says each preparation is tested for sterility and potency, with endotoxin screening
- Its FAQ says plainly that compounded medications are not FDA-approved
The tradeoffs
- Prescriptions have to come from your provider's e-prescribing system; there's no patient sign-up
- Says it is licensed in 'select states' without listing them
- No prices and no street address on the homepage
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved products
The bottom line
Best for: Patients whose provider already e-prescribes to SmartPharmaRX; it isn't a place to start GLP-1 treatment. SmartPharmaRX is a compounding pharmacy that makes semaglutide and tirzepatide for prescriptions sent by providers; it has no patient sign-up and no public prices.
