Pros & Cons

LovelyMeds

What we like

  • Semaglutide costs $175 a month, close to the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare
  • Tirzepatide costs $150 a month, 40% below the $250 median for compounded tirzepatide across the sellers we compare
  • The monthly price includes the medication and clinician visits

Watch-outs

  • 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
  • The FDA has issued LovelyMeds a warning letter. Read what it alleges: a letter flags a problem but does not by itself rule a seller out
  • 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
