What each price covers

AZ Health is silent on lab work and coaching.

Nurx is silent on shipping, lab work and coaching.

That matters most for the drug: unless Nurx confirms otherwise, budget for medication on top of its listed price.

About AZ Health

Flat monthly pricing at AZ Health puts physician-prescribed compounded semaglutide at $179/mo and tirzepatide at $199/mo, insurance not required; NAD+ injections are sold too. FSA/HSA money works, delivery is free and discreet, and canceling is unrestricted. The clinic is Arizona-based and 100% virtual. It states that compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and need a prescription. The whole site is a single page carrying no Terms or Privacy, and the LegitScript certification it claims is self-stated with no way to verify it. AZHM is the shorthand it uses.

Pros & Cons

AZ Health

What we like

  • Shows its price before the medical questionnaire, so you can compare it without handing over health information
  • The monthly price includes the medication, clinician visits and shipping
  • We found no FDA warning letters issued to AZ Health

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 semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality

Nurx

What we like

  • We found no FDA warning letters issued to Nurx

Watch-outs

  • You only see a price after finishing the medical intake, so you cannot compare costs before sharing health information
  • Not included in the monthly price: medication, clinician visits
  • 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 semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
