About Fitstry

Nothing is paid at screening, which is free; the single program fee applies only to those who qualify, and it comes back if no clinician will prescribe. Discreet shipping, a Care Line staffed 24/7, coaching every two weeks, clinician access without limit and a lab panel are all wrapped into the monthly medication charge. Weightstry, LLC runs Fitstry for women 40+, cash-pay and LegitScript-certified, across 49 states, selling weekly injections of compounded tirzepatide and semaglutide, microdosing, and a GLP-1 tablet taken daily. Compounded medications lack FDA approval.

Fitstry

What we like

  • Semaglutide costs $169 a month, close to the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare

  • The monthly price includes the medication, clinician visits and shipping
  • We found no FDA warning letters issued to Fitstry

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
