Pros & Cons

FMmeds

Watch-outs

  • Semaglutide costs $225 a month, 22% above the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare
  • 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
