About TeleFirst Med

The GLP-1 route at TeleFirst Med costs $120 for an evaluation, and that is the only figure published; the drug itself is billed separately by whichever pharmacy you already use. A licensed doctor decides whether you qualify, and what gets written is real brand-name medication, never compounded. No mail-order compounded program exists at all. Marketing promises no insurance hassle and no prior authorization. Coverage stops at Texas and North Carolina, from a small practice reporting 500+ patients, alongside its virtual urgent-care and primary-care work.

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

TeleFirst Med

What we like

  • The monthly price includes clinician visits and coaching
  • We found no FDA warning letters issued to TeleFirst Med
  • A live video visit with a clinician is required before a prescription, which is slower than a form and is the more careful intake

Watch-outs

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

Winner: Henry Meds
