NewSelf
What we like
- Semaglutide costs $100 a month, 46% below the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare
- Tirzepatide costs $144 a month, 42% below the $250 median for compounded tirzepatide 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 stays the same as your dose goes up
- The monthly price includes the medication, clinician visits and shipping

Watch-outs
- Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
- The FDA has issued NewSelf 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
