About CeliaRx
Tablets begin near $199/month; injectable vials average as little as $125-$225/month. Screening by a clinician happens once you have checked out, and the money comes back in full if approval does not follow. Partell Pharmacy compounds what is prescribed. The marketplace leans toward longevity, listing a wider peptide catalog for brain, gut, hair and skin beside compounded tirzepatide and semaglutide sold as B12-combo injectables or dissolving oral tablets.

Four GLP-1 prices are all posted where anyone can read them. On the 3-month plan compounded semaglutide falls to $125/month and tirzepatide to $199/month, and a first tirzepatide order takes $50 off. Plans come in one-month and three-month lengths. Both molecules have a stated microdose program, which is unusual. Sermorelin, NAD+, glutathione and enclomiphene are also listed.

CeliaRx
What we like
- Semaglutide costs $125 a month, 32% below the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare
- Tirzepatide costs $225 a month, 10% below the $250 median for compounded tirzepatide across the sellers we compare
- 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 CeliaRx
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
