PrescribedRX review
Neither GLP-1 plan is sold a month at a time, and the semaglutide one is a new-user bundle.
The verdict
PrescribedRX prices compounded semaglutide at $210 a month and compounded tirzepatide at $233, and neither figure is a month-to-month rate. The semaglutide figure is a new-user bundle of two months with a third added free, charged as $420 at the start, while the tirzepatide figure belongs to a three-month plan charged as $697. Both pages promise the same price at every dose, which counts for more across a titration than the headline suggests.

PrescribedRX is a cash-pay telehealth brand selling testosterone, longevity, hair-loss and sexual-health treatments beside a weight-loss line of compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide injections. Its footer describes the company as a patient management and marketing platform, which means the business taking the order is not the one writing the prescription. Insurance is not accepted, both weight-loss pages say the service is not available in North Carolina, and shipping is listed as free priority delivery.
Who writes the prescription, and what do they see?
The footer is plain about who prescribes: independently licensed clinicians reached through a third-party medical group, with PrescribedRX stating that it employs no physicians and does not influence clinical decisions. That medical group is not named on the weight-loss pages or on the home page. The process opens with what the site calls a health test, a clinical assessment that for some treatments includes a blood draw at a nearby lab. The FAQ adds that not every treatment requires one, without saying which way the GLP-1 plans fall, and a licensed provider then reviews the results and decides whether semaglutide or tirzepatide is appropriate.
Once a plan is running, the site describes messaging a provider at any time through its own platform, with dose adjustments and side-effect questions handled there rather than in scheduled visits. The product pages promise access to a doctor within 48 hours and a money-back guarantee, though the page itself does not spell out the guarantee's terms. Medication arrives by monthly delivery even when the plan was paid for in advance, so the fridge holds one month at a time.
What happens when the dose goes up?
This is the part of PrescribedRX that holds up best over the first four months. Both product pages carry the line 'Honest Pricing, Same Price at Every Dose', so a patient climbing from a starting dose toward maintenance is quoted the same rate at each step. What the pages do not publish is the dose itself, in milligrams, at any rung of the ladder. The pace of each increase is left to a general promise that the provider adjusts dosing as the body responds. What stays unanswered is the price after a prepaid plan runs out, since no month-to-month rate is published for either drug.
What the price includes
Semaglutide is sold as a new-user offer of two months with a third free, $420 charged at the start and shown on the page as $210 a month. Tirzepatide is a three-month plan at $697, shown as $233 a month. Neither page lists a single-month option, and neither says what a returning patient pays once the new-user bundle has been used, which leaves the second purchase as the figure a buyer cannot yet plan around.
What it claims, and what it cites
Both drugs are compounded preparations made by a licensed compounding pharmacy for the individual patient, and each product page says so in its safety section, adding that compounded drugs are not reviewed or approved by the FDA. PrescribedRX states that it does not compound or produce medication itself. The pharmacy that fills the prescription is not named.
Where it holds up, and where it does not
- Strength: The price is stated as the same at every dose
- Strength: Each plan's upfront charge is printed beside the monthly figure
- Strength: Provider messaging is described as open at any time
- Strength: Compounded status is stated on each product page
- Limitation: No month-to-month plan for either drug
- Limitation: The semaglutide bundle is limited to new users
- Limitation: The medical group and pharmacy are not named
- Limitation: Not available in North Carolina
What the evidence says about this kind of treatment
The assessment above is about PrescribedRX. These are about the drugs it sells, and they are traced to the primary literature.
- Right for
- A buyer ready to pay for three months up front who wants the rate to stay put through the dose increases.
- Wrong for
- A buyer who wants to try a single month before committing, or who lives in North Carolina.

- Can I buy one month at a time?
- Not from either product page. Semaglutide is sold as a two-month bundle with a third month free for $420, and tirzepatide as a three-month plan for $697.
- Does the price rise as the dose goes up?
- Both pages state the same price at every dose, so the monthly figure is not tied to the strength a provider prescribes.
- Who writes the prescription?
- An independently licensed provider working through a third-party medical group that the site does not name. PrescribedRX says it employs no physicians.
- Is PrescribedRX expensive compared with other GLP-1 telehealth sellers?
- PrescribedRX publishes a starting figure of $210/mo. Across the 368 GLP-1 telehealth sellers we review that publish a single monthly figure, those run $49 to $449 with a median of $189, which puts PrescribedRX above the median. The other 20 GLP-1 telehealth sellers we review quote only after an intake or price by dose, so they are not in that comparison. A starting figure is not a bill — labs, consultations and shipping are often charged separately, so confirm what your own quote includes.
