Where the value is

  • Each product page lists every plan: semaglutide is $249 for one month, $650 for three, $1,050 for six and $1,900 for twelve; tirzepatide is $297, $800, $1,299 and $1,999
  • The price covers the medication, telemedicine visits and coaching, and stays the same at every dose
  • Semaglutide comes as a weekly injection or an oral option, and brand Wegovy or Zepbound can be prescribed for $99 a month to fill at your own pharmacy
  • No contract on the monthly plan; the product pages say you can cancel anytime

The tradeoffs

  • The "from $158" and "from $167" category prices are 12-month prepaid rates; month to month is $249 and $297
  • No refund once your prescription is sent to the pharmacy
  • No state list: one page says it ships to "most states" and another says "50+ states"
  • The $99 brand-name plan covers only the visit and prescription; the Wegovy or Zepbound itself is bought separately at your pharmacy
  • The dispensing pharmacy isn't named
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved products

The bottom line

Best for: Shoppers who want a flat price at every dose, with an oral semaglutide option and a provider who can also prescribe brand Wegovy or Zepbound. TMates sells compounded semaglutide at $249 a month and tirzepatide at $297, the same at every dose, with lower rates down to $158 and $167 only if you prepay up to 12 months.
