About Luci
Luci competes on price for compounded GLP-1: $99/month at the bottom for compounded semaglutide, $145/month for compounded tirzepatide, with pill kits of both molecules available orally. An independent US telehealth medical group called DrTelx handles the clinical side, reading a short questionnaire before a provider signs off, then staying on for ongoing support. Neither compounded molecule holds FDA approval for weight loss. Only select US states are served and Luci never prints the full list. The pharmacy goes unnamed.

Luci
What we like
- The monthly figure covers medication, consult, shipping
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
Watch-outs
- No price appears until the medical intake is complete, so the cost cannot be compared before health information is submitted
- No state list is on record here, so whether it serves your state cannot be confirmed from this page
- No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
- 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
bmiMD
What we like
- Semaglutide at $99 a month, 48% below the $189 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Tirzepatide at $139 a month, 48% below the $267 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Publishes a price on its own site before the medical questionnaire, so it can be compared without handing over health information
- The monthly price is recorded as flat across doses, so it does not climb as the dose is titrated up
- The monthly figure covers medication, consult, shipping
- Coverage is published for all 50 states
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
Watch-outs
- No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
- 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
