A flat $179 for either molecule with a genuinely gentle microdosing tier — a reasonable, all-doses-included partner if you can live with a yearly plan and a pharmacy it doesn't name.

Pallas Health removes the two things that usually cost a working parent the most time: it publishes every price before intake, and it runs care asynchronously in 43 of 50 states, so there's no video appointment to wedge into a workday. Compounded semaglutide averages about $199 a month and tirzepatide $299, and unusually the genuine FDA-approved pens sit alongside them — Zepbound $1,069, Ozempic $1,299, Wegovy and Mounjaro $1,349 — all cash-pay from the same clinician. The price is flat at every dose, so a titration never produces a surprise bill, and the plan figure already contains the clinician, dose adjustments, check-ins and messaging with no membership fee. Its cancellation terms are unusually concrete: cancel free through the portal, keep access to the end of the paid period, full refund if a clinician declines you, and a $5 processing fee on a qualifying refund. The trade-offs are that billing lands every 12 weeks in $597 and $897 blocks rather than monthly, the compounding pharmacy is never named, and insurance is never billed.

The price-first partner: some of the lowest flat, all-inclusive compounded pricing we track, nationwide and async — strong if the monthly number is your deciding factor and you read the annual-prepay fine print.

A flat $239/mo semaglutide, $399/mo tirzepatide, no-video intake with free overnight shipping — but it's only live in 23 states, and most big population centers aren't on the list.

RxSpan MD is a genuinely well-disclosed service wrapped in marketing that undercuts it. The disclosure: four compounding pharmacies named with phone numbers, two lead physicians named with NPI numbers that verify as active MDs, flat pricing posted before any intake, both compounded and real FDA-approved brand GLP-1s on one platform, and oral capsules for anyone who won't inject. Compounded semaglutide is $249 a month and tirzepatide $329, with brand Zepbound at $1,069, Ozempic at $1,299 and Wegovy at $1,349. The marketing is the problem. Its testimonials still name a different company — one patient describes what she 'expected from CareGLP' — and the doctors quoted in them are not the clinicians the same page names as its medical team. The homepage is built around a board-certified plastic surgeon who founded the practice but is licensed in California only and isn't the prescriber. Its compounded prices also sit above the roster median, and the oral capsules cost the same or more than the injections.

No scheduled video visit, but no published turnaround time either — a $49/mo membership plus medication billed separately lands around $348/mo all-in for either molecule.

The insurance-and-brand heavyweight: a WeightWatchers-run membership that routes you toward FDA-approved product and insurance coverage, with a video visit required in some states — the membership fee and the medication bill are two separate charges.

On logistics Hello Alpha is one of the easiest entries on this page: appointment-free online visits, unlimited provider messaging, free shipping, and a women's health platform behind it rather than a single-product weight-loss funnel. On cost it is one of the hardest to plan for. The $79 a month it publishes is the Alpha Plus+ membership, and the medication is billed on top of it — 'insurance or cash pay', with Hello Alpha stating it will work with your plan to find the lowest cost. It prescribes FDA-approved products only, which is its own stated policy, so the menu is the Zepbound and Mounjaro pens and Rybelsus tablets, and no compounded semaglutide exists here at all. That combination has a clear shape: if your employer plan covers a GLP-1, this is one of the few providers on this page built to use that coverage instead of routing around it, and $79 plus a copay may be the cheapest real outcome available to you. If you are paying cash, the total is unknowable in advance, because no cash medication price is published anywhere on the site, and the compounded providers here will be both cheaper and clearer. Hello Alpha is also explicit that a membership does not guarantee a prescription, which is the right thing to say and worth knowing before you pay.

One public number and a great deal of small print. Read live on 2026-08-26, the homepage says "Starting at $269" for compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, and neither molecule is priced separately anywhere a reader can reach before the quiz. The footnote matters more than the figure: it says the price is paid upfront in full, that the actual price depends on the product and subscription plan you buy, and that the introductory pricing applies only to new customers on the compounded ORAL semaglutide plan — so the cheapest advertised route is a pill, not the weekly injection most readers are shopping for. The banner reading Get $140 Off Today is a discount amount rather than a price, and at least one industry directory has misread it as a $140 introductory rate. Where TellHerDoc is unusually good is disclosure of everything except price: it serves all fifty states, names its medical team and four partner pharmacies, and publishes the seven jurisdictions where a live video consultation is legally required. Where it is unusually blunt: all sales are final.
