About Aspire Health
Aspire Health is a Nebraska‑based telehealth practice that publishes dose‑by‑dose prices before any intake. Compounded semaglutide works out to about $103/month at 0.5 mg and $184 at the 2.4 mg maintenance dose; compounded tirzepatide is about $249/month at 5 mg. Brand Wegovy, brand Zepbound and oral Wegovy are priced separately. Medication is billed on top of a $49/month medical‑care fee, and the cost of lab work is not included. A named PA/NP team prescribes, and all three dispensing pharmacies are named publicly.
Read our full Aspire Health review →About Wholesome Clinic
Medication paid out of pocket opens at $109/month for compounded semaglutide, while a $149 first evaluation and $75 follow-ups are billed on their own. Seven states can reach the telehealth weight-loss service, run from an integrative-psychiatry and wellness practice in Frisco, Texas, where providers write weekly injectables or oral dissolving tablets of compounded tirzepatide and semaglutide, turning to Zepbound and Wegovy under brand names where clinically appropriate.

What we like

Watch-outs
- Not included in the monthly price: lab work
