Read our full Injectco review →About MaxLife
MaxLife sells compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on a flat membership fee that covers the medication, supplies and overnight shipping. Price depends on plan length rather than dose: a three-month Starter Kit prepay buys a lower monthly rate for the first quarter, after which the standing monthly rate applies.

Injectco
What we like
- Semaglutide costs $156 a month, 16% below the $185 median for compounded semaglutide 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 and clinician visits
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to Injectco
Watch-outs
- 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

Watch-outs
