Any licensed prescriber can write it, but LillyDirect will not ship without a valid US prescription. Eli Lilly runs this channel itself, direct-pay, and what it sells is Foundayo (orforglipron): for weight loss, the first oral GLP-1 pill. Commercially insured patients holding the Lilly Savings Card pay $25/month. Paying cash costs $149-$299/month, depending on labeled dose.

Found
What we like
- Tirzepatide costs $169 a month, 32% 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 coaching
- Serves all 50 states
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to Found
Watch-outs
- Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
- Its orforglipron, semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
