# Andrew Meds review

Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide at four plan lengths, prescribed through an independent medical practice the footer names.

## The verdict

Andrew Meds charges $199 a month for compounded semaglutide and $299 for tirzepatide on its month-to-month plan. A buyer who commits to twelve months pays $149 and $229 a month instead, with the whole year billed as one total at the start.

Andrew Meds is a Houston-based telehealth platform whose weight-loss program, which its own FAQ describes as the launch offering, is compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide by weekly injection. A GHK-Cu skin cream, a CJC-1295 and ipamorelin peptide, and an oral sexual health treatment sit on the menu around that core program.

1.  ## Who writes the prescription, and what do they see?
    
    The footer names the clinical side outright: care is provided by Dr Tel X, an independent professional medical practice in Kennewick, Washington, with its own support address and phone line. Individual clinicians are not named, and the FAQ describes them only as licensed clinicians in the patient's state who review the intake, talk with the patient and write the prescription if a medication is appropriate.
    
    A buyer fills out an intake of about five minutes and then books a consultation, which is a video visit or an online assessment depending on where the buyer lives. The footer spells out the split: questionnaire-based care runs in 44 states, while the District of Columbia and six states, among them Kansas, Louisiana and West Virginia, require a live consultation before treatment. After approval the pharmacy typically ships within a few business days, and Andrew Meds says it will reach out about refill timing.
    
2.  ## What happens when the dose goes up?
    
    The FAQ says doses usually start low and are adjusted over time, and that the provider sets the starting dose from the intake and the consultation. What happens to the bill as the dose climbs is not stated, because no milligram appears beside any plan and the pricing table never says whether $199 still covers the stronger doses later in a course.
    
3.  ## What the price includes
    
    The table on each product page runs month to month first, and it reads plainly: semaglutide at $199, three months at $549 in total, six at $999 and twelve at $1,788, which the page converts to $149 a month. Tirzepatide follows the same four columns at $299, $797, $1,494 and $2,748, ending at $229 a month. Each longer column prints its saving in dollars, and the page states that the figures cover medication and supplies, with nothing charged for a medication that is never prescribed.
    
4.  ## What it claims, and what it cites
    
    Both products are compounded by a licensed pharmacy the site does not name, and the FAQ is direct that they are not the same as [Ozempic](https://thisglp.com/research/semaglutide-cochrane-review), Wegovy, [Mounjaro](https://thisglp.com/research/tirzepatide-vs-semaglutide-which-works-better) or Zepbound, which are FDA-approved finished products. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved as finished products, a line the footer repeats on every page of the site.
    

## Where it holds up, and where it does not

-   Strength: Month-to-month rate listed first, before any discount
-   Strength: Every plan total printed beside its saving
-   Strength: The prescribing medical practice is named
-   Strength: State consultation rules published in the footer
-   Limitation: No milligram appears beside any plan
-   Limitation: Silent on whether higher doses cost more
-   Limitation: The compounding pharmacy is not named
-   Limitation: Refunds are handled case by case

## What the evidence says about this kind of treatment

The assessment above is about Andrew Meds. These are about the drugs it sells, and they are traced to the primary literature.

-   [What happens to the dose, and to the side effects, over the first twenty weeks?](https://thisglp.com/research/how-long-does-nausea-last-on-a-glp1)
-   [How much of the weight lost is muscle, and what changes that?](https://thisglp.com/research/muscle-loss-on-glp1)
-   [What does the trial evidence show when treatment stops?](https://thisglp.com/research/stopping-glp1-and-weight-regain)

Right for

A reader who wants to start month to month and see every longer commitment priced before choosing one.

Wrong for

A reader who needs the dose and the dispensing pharmacy named before paying anything.

## The evidence behind what Andrew Meds prescribes

These studies examine the medicines, not this provider. Results with approved products do not establish the quality or effectiveness of a seller’s compounded formulation.

-   [Cochrane Review of Semaglutide for Obesity: 18 Trials Graded](https://thisglp.com/research/semaglutide-cochrane-review)
    
    A 2025 Cochrane review pooled eighteen randomized trials. The weight figure is high certainty and smaller than the marketing, and almost everything else is graded lower.
    
-   [Tirzepatide vs Semaglutide: Which Works Better for Weight Loss?](https://thisglp.com/research/tirzepatide-vs-semaglutide-which-works-better)
    
    In a 72-week randomized trial at weight-management doses, weight fell 20.2 percent on tirzepatide and 13.7 percent on semaglutide. Routine-care studies found a smaller gap, three to four points.

Andrew Meds is a GLP-1 telehealth sellers service. Its stated availability: All 50 states and DC. What our record does not establish: whether it bills insurance and how its intake works. Ask for those in writing before you pay.
