About Steady State Health

$139/month is where clinical support starts, or $99/month if taken on its own; the drug itself is cash-pay, billed by whichever pharmacy dispenses it. Oregon and Washington are the two states covered. Josie Cowburn, DNP, FNP-C, a nurse practitioner, runs the women's-health practice, and its GLP-1 Metabolic Support program treats tirzepatide or semaglutide as part of a metabolic and hormone framework for menopause and perimenopause rather than a weight-loss drug standing alone.

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

Steady State Health

What we like

  • The monthly price includes clinician visits
  • We found no FDA warning letters issued to Steady State Health

Watch-outs

  • Not included in the monthly price: medication
  • Serves only 2 states, so check that yours is one of them
  • Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
