About Aurelius Health Group
Month one costs $89; every month after that is $199, a figure taking in consultations, the protocol itself, shipping and monitoring. Rather than standard full-dose therapy, the whole platform is built on microdosed compounded tirzepatide, a dual GIP/GLP-1 approach given at low dose. Add-ons are optional: NAD+, L-carnitine, B12, inositol. Worth noting, the site does not hide that trial data behind microdosing is thin.

Insurance is never billed by Balanced Hormone Health. The practice runs private-pay and hands over receipts for HSA/HRA accounts instead. HRT and BHRT are its roots, with compounded GLP-1 and GLP-1/GIP plans added on: compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, frequently paired with B vitamins, sourced through partner pharmacies it names as Revive and Striker. A branded Zepbound option is listed too. Expect about a week for a batch to be made before it ships. Most states are reachable, though which ones drop out depends on the compounding pharmacy handling the order.

Aurelius Health Group
What we like
- Tirzepatide costs $199 a month, 20% below the $250 median for compounded tirzepatide across the sellers we compare

- We found no FDA warning letters issued to Aurelius Health Group
Watch-outs
- Confirm it serves your state before you start the intake
- Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
- Its tirzepatide is compounded rather than FDA-approved, so it has not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
