Curve
What we like
- Semaglutide costs $175 a month, close to the $184 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

- Names VialsRx as the pharmacy that fills its prescriptions, which most sellers do not
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to Curve
Watch-outs
- 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
