About TeleWellnessMD
You will not find a monthly figure published; it is set once the provider assessment is done. Under the weight-loss category sit tirzepatide and semaglutide, part of a wider hormone and wellness catalog, and some prescriptions are restricted to particular states. Licensed providers deliver care after an online assessment. First orders get 20 percent off with the code FIRST20 for new patients. FDA approval does not cover compounded medications.
Read our full TeleWellnessMD review →About TrimRx
Three things TrimRx does not publish: the pharmacy that compounds its drugs, the states it serves, and any LegitScript certification. Specifics sit behind an intake quiz. What is visible is a cash-pay program with tiered monthly pricing plus multi-month bundles, no insurance, selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide shipped monthly at no shipping cost. Licensed US providers prescribe after reviewing an online medical history. The pitch is dose continuity and stable pricing: "switch and keep your current dose, no price hikes". Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved.
