Fridays review
The arithmetic to do before you sign up: $117 a month is $1,404 charged today. Every advertised figure on this site — $117, $150, $198, $240 — carries the line "Paid annually, delivered monthly". The pay-as-you-go numbers are on the same page, to Fridays' credit: $249 for compounded semaglutide, $359 for tirzepatide. Worth a second look before you decide: the "96.8% success rate" printed next to before-and-after photos is footnoted as a measure of whether packages shipped on time.

How we scored Fridays
Each factor is read off Fridays's published pricing, disclosures and intake flow, and the six roll up into the 45/100 Rx-Readiness Score on the same weighted six-factor framework we apply to every provider — never nudged by whether a provider pays us.
Tiered or opaque — the true monthly is hard to pin down up front.
Limited or state-gated availability — confirm yours first.
Both medications are listed; switching requires clinician approval and may need a new evaluation.
Exit terms are the weak point: lock-in, notice periods, or a cancellation path that isn't published.
The hardest start to fit around a workday — a scheduled visit, or no published answer either way.
The weakest showing on speed — a slow published timeline, or none at all.
How we verified this review
- Last verified
- August 2026
- Confidence
- medium
- Primary source
- joinfridays.com/pricing
Read from Fridays' own pricing page in August 2026. Every advertised price — $117, $150, $198, $240 — carries the note "Paid annually, delivered monthly", and the same page gives the month-to-month rate as $249 for compounded semaglutide and $359 for compounded tirzepatide. Brand-name Ozempic is $1,498 a month, Zepbound $1,828. The "96.8% success rate" is footnoted as internal shipping and fulfillment performance rather than a clinical result, and three plan cards still display an unfilled "Save up to $xxx" placeholder. Fridays does name its operating company, address and phone in the footer.
What to expect when you sign up
We walked Fridays's public signup funnel (August 2026) — a first-hand look at the flow. We don't create accounts, enter medical data, or complete checkout, so this is what any visitor sees, not a patient outcome.
- 1The signup call to action leaves joinfridays.com for app.joinfridays.com, a separate host
- 2The signup page opened normally when we checked it on 2026-08-21
- 3We stopped at the first signup screen and entered no personal details, so we can't tell you what comes after it
What we noticed
- The intake runs on Webflow rather than on the provider's own software
- No monthly price is visible on the public homepage; the number appears only after you begin the intake
- Intake is hosted on app.joinfridays.com, so the company you fill the form in with is not the domain you started on

What we like
- Names the company behind the brand in plain text — "Thrive Health, Inc. is the legal entity operating Fridays" — with a street address and phone number
- Publishes the month-to-month price on the same page as the annual one
- Compounded plans bundle membership, unlimited provider visits, coaching and shipping at no extra charge
- Brand-name Ozempic and Zepbound are available with their prices published, not quote-on-request
The caveats
- The headline prices all require twelve months paid up front — month to month it is $249 for semaglutide, $359 for tirzepatide
- The "96.8% success rate" is not a clinical figure: the site's own footnote calls it "internal fulfillment and delivery performance for paid orders" and says it "does not represent clinical outcomes"
- An unfilled template placeholder is live on the pricing page — three plan cards read "Save up to $xxx", all three quoting $99/mo for different plan lengths
- The struck-through reference price for compounded semaglutide is $279 on one card and $249 on another
- The hero claims "4K+ review"; a section further down the same page says "2,000+ reviews"
- "No membership fees" applies to the compounded plans only — the brand track adds $49 the first month and roughly $98/mo after, medication excluded
- No list of states served appears anywhere on the site
Fridays for working moms: our verdict
Fridays is best assessed on the total charge, your state eligibility, and how easily you can stop future billing. It runs about $249/month — a premium to the category, so the extras have to earn it.
Before choosing Fridays, confirm the prescription offered, the services included, and the renewal terms. The sections below separate those decisions so you can compare the same costs and commitments.
What Fridays will cost you
- Compounded semaglutide — Month to month: $249/mo
- Compounded semaglutide — Prepaid annual plan: $150/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide — Month to month: $359/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide — Prepaid annual plan: $240/mo
- Brand-name semaglutide — Ozempic, month to month: $1498/mo
- Brand-name tirzepatide — Zepbound, month to month: $1828/mo
For context, the typical ongoing price across our roster is around $179/month, so Fridays sits at the premium end.
The medications Fridays prescribes
Fridays prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide. Availability of both does not guarantee that switching is appropriate or that a new evaluation is unnecessary. The provider record lists access to FDA-approved brand products; confirm the exact medication and coverage with the clinician.
An oral or sublingual option is listed. Confirm the exact product: an FDA-approved oral medicine and a compounded oral formulation do not have the same approval status or supporting evidence.
Where Fridays fits — and where it doesn't — for working moms
Right for you if…
- you want a straightforward semaglutide and tirzepatide program and will confirm the details before you commit.
Not your best option if…
- you have to run it through insurance — this is cash-pay, as most of the market is.
Trust, safety, and the fine print
Before enrolling with Fridays, confirm the clinician, the dispensing pharmacy, and how to reach the care team between refills. As with any compounded GLP-1, the most useful thing working moms can do is confirm which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription and what's in the formulation — we explain how we weigh oversight in our scoring methodology.
For working moms, pregnancy plans, breastfeeding and other medicines belong in the clinical discussion before treatment. Ask your prescriber for the guidance that applies to your exact product and circumstances.
The bottom line
Choose Fridays only when the ongoing cost and care arrangements fit your needs. Ask for the next charge, the cancellation deadline, and a contact for treatment questions before paying. Compare the same drug, supply period, and commitment across providers.
The bottom line for working moms
Best for: A budget that can absorb twelve months in one charge, checked against the refund policy first.

Head-to-head & alternatives
Fridays, answered
- How much does Fridays cost?
- Budget around $249/mo — that was Fridays's lowest ongoing compounded rate at last review ($249/mo on the month-to-month plan semaglutide, $359/mo on the month-to-month plan tirzepatide). Verify the all-in figure on their site before you plan around it; these numbers change often.
- Can I start Fridays without a scheduled video visit?
- Confirm the consultation format directly with Fridays. An online program may still require a live visit depending on your state, clinician and medical needs; the score alone does not establish your intake requirements.
- Does Fridays offer both semaglutide and tirzepatide?
- Fridays lists tirzepatide access as well as semaglutide. Confirm the exact treatment offered to you; switching requires clinician approval and may involve a new evaluation or different cost.
- Where does Fridays rank for working moms?
- Fridays earns 45/100 on our Rx-Readiness Score, ranking #277. Speed to first dose and flat pricing carry the most weight of the six factors behind it. Compare the price, care arrangements and eligibility described in the review.
Pricing, states and verification reflect Fridays's public disclosures at last review; the Rx-Readiness Score is our editorial judgment per the published methodology.
