Whatever the dose level, a flat monthly per-vial rate buys a 4-week supply, and $25/month more covers clinical messaging, management of side effects and titration by the provider. Compounded tirzepatide and semaglutide injections come from 503B pharmacies certified to USP standards. Dr. Sara Siavoshi, holding triple board certification in Obesity Medicine, Headache Medicine and Neurology, founded the clinic as a neurologist. Visits happen online, 100% of them, and shipping is discreet across the country. LegitScript certifies it.
Is DrBrainRx legit?
Yes. DrBrainRx is a real, operating US company, and we found no FDA warning letters issued to it. Its site shows LegitScript certification. We rate it 7.0/10 overall, across six areas from price to trust and safety. Legitimate is not the same as right for you, though: that part is a decision for you and a licensed clinician.
Is there a DrBrainRx promo or coupon code?
We know of no promo or coupon code for DrBrainRx. Its listed price is $199 a month. Coupon sites advertising "DrBrainRx discount codes" are not a source we can vouch for, and any genuine offer shows at checkout without a code.

How DrBrainRx scores
Six columns, each one computed from something DrBrainRx has published rather than from an opinion we formed: what it charges, which molecules it will dispense, what its record shows, and what the monthly figure actually buys. Where a seller keeps something back, such as its price or its pharmacy, the score reflects it. Every seller we review goes through the same six columns.
Value25%
4.5/10$199/month is 8% above the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare.
Effectiveness25%
10.0/10Dispenses semaglutide and tirzepatide, compounded only. Anchored to SURMOUNT-1 (tirzepatide, -20.9%) and STEP 1 (semaglutide, -14.9%).
User Experience15%
8.0/10A price is shown before the questionnaire starts.
Trust & Safety15%
6.5/10No pharmacy is named for its prescriptions. It shows a price before asking for health information.
Accessibility10%
5.0/10No state list is available to check, so this is held at the midpoint rather than scored on reach.
Support10%
7.0/10The price covers the medication, clinician visits and shipping.

What signing up with DrBrainRx involves
What to expect on the way to a prescription: where the price appears, who fills the medication, and what the monthly price covers. It is not medical advice, and a clinician makes the prescribing decision.
- 1DrBrainRx shows a price on its own site before asking anything about you, so you can compare it with other sellers before you start a questionnaire.
- 2DrBrainRx does not require a live video visit or baseline bloodwork before a first prescription.
- 3Ask DrBrainRx which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay. The pharmacy's name is what lets you check its license.
- 4The monthly price includes the medication, clinician visits and shipping.
- Lowest ongoing monthly price: semaglutide $199, tirzepatide $299. That leaves out membership fees, first-month rates and insurance copays.
- Confirm that DrBrainRx serves your state before you start.
- The medication is compounded, so it is not an FDA-approved product and has not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality.

Check the price yourself before you pay
Every figure here was read off DrBrainRx's own checkout on the date shown. Sellers move prices without announcing it, and promotional rates lapse, so confirm the standing cost on their site before committing.
In its favor
- Semaglutide costs $199 a month, close to 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, clinician visits and shipping
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to DrBrainRx
Against it
- Tirzepatide costs $299 a month, 20% above the $250 median for compounded tirzepatide across the sellers we compare
- 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
What DrBrainRx charges
DrBrainRx lists $199/month.
- Compounded semaglutide: $199/month
- Compounded tirzepatide: $299/month
For compounded semaglutide, the median across the sellers we compare is $185/month, so DrBrainRx's $199 lands mid-market. Price is unlikely to be the deciding factor.
RNK Health dispenses semaglutide and tirzepatide from $197/month, which makes it the fair comparison to run before you commit here.
What DrBrainRx dispenses
DrBrainRx prescribes semaglutide (approved as Wegovy and Ozempic) and tirzepatide (approved as Zepbound and Mounjaro). Between them these are the pair carrying the strongest published outcome data. What arrives is compounded at a licensed pharmacy, not an approved pen. That is the reason it costs less, and the reason the finished preparation carries no FDA review behind it.
Safety and disclosure
DrBrainRx tells you its price before you start the medical questionnaire and that its pharmacy is accredited. We found no FDA warning letters issued to DrBrainRx. Because the medication is compounded, the most useful question to ask at intake is which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription. If DrBrainRx will not tell you, treat that as a warning sign. How we weigh oversight, disclosure and price is set out in our scoring methodology.
Who should look elsewhere
- You want the FDA-approved pen specifically. Everything listed here is compounded.
- You need insurance to cover the cost. Check whether DrBrainRx bills your plan before you start.
Our read
DrBrainRx lands mid-market on price without a standout advantage or an obvious problem. It comes down to whether its particular package fits you. HumeCare+ is the nearest comparison we review, and worth reading alongside this.
The Bottom Line
DrBrainRx's strongest column is the clinical side: which molecules it will prescribe, and how it handles dosing.
Before you pay DrBrainRx
Starting at $199 a month. Check today's price, then start the intake.
Where DrBrainRx is the wrong choice
No seller suits every reader, and pretending otherwise is the easiest way to sell one. On these three counts, another seller does better.
- If you need the FDA-approved pen rather than a compounded vial, consider Sesame Care.
- If the standing monthly cost is what decides it, consider Collective (from $59/mo).
- If you want a human checking in, not just a prescription, consider ShedRx.
