$199/mo is quoted as a flat starting rate, though you only get it after a provider review, and no itemized list of prices is published. Partner compounding pharmacies in the U.S. supply the microdose GLP-1 program at lower dose, the tirzepatide and the semaglutide, all compounded. Laqueta Nelson, MSN, FNP-BC, a nurse practitioner, leads care, while the site describes itself as physician-led from top to bottom. Vitalex Health, LLC exists, was registered recently, and has legal pages that work. No pharmacy partner is named and no LegitScript seal appears.

Curex
What we like
- Semaglutide costs $199 a month, close to the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare
- Tirzepatide costs $199 a month, 20% 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
- Serves 45 states
Watch-outs
- Not included in the monthly price: lab work
- Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
- The FDA has issued Curex a warning letter. Read what it alleges: a letter flags a problem but does not by itself rule a seller out
- 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
