About Risen Labs

Costs stay hidden until the clinical intake is done, so you confirm them during signup; the marketing pages carry no GLP-1 price. New York and Colorado are the only two states served right now. Risen Labs LLC puts hormone and men's health programs beside once-weekly injections of compounded tirzepatide and semaglutide for weight loss, and names Olympia Pharmacy, a 503A compounder, as the maker.

Pros & Cons

Henry Meds

What we like

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

Watch-outs

  • Semaglutide costs $249 a month, 35% above the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare
  • You only see a price after finishing the medical intake, so you cannot compare costs before sharing health information
  • 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

Risen Labs

What we like

  • You only see a price after finishing the medical intake, so you cannot compare costs before sharing health information
