Is Fridays legit?

Yes. Fridays is a real, operating US company, and we found no FDA warning letters issued to it. We rate it 5.7/10 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 Fridays promo or coupon code?

Fridays publishes the code SHOP100 (SHOP100 = $100 off first order. Site also lists FORBES and EXPERTISE ($100 off any plan), plus stacked codes NEWYOU1/NEWYOU3/NEWYOU12 (tirzepatide 1/3/12-mo) and NYNY1/NYNY3/NYNY12 (semaglutide 1/3/12-mo)). You enter it at checkout on Fridays' own site. Other codes for Fridays circulate on coupon sites, and we cannot vouch for those.

How Fridays scores

Six columns, each one computed from something Fridays 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.

2.9/10

$249/month is 35% above the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare.

Effectiveness25%

10.0/10

What we checked on Fridays

Last checked September 2026
  • Checked the listed price across 4 dose or plan tiers
  • Checked what the monthly price covers, and what it leaves out
  • Confirmed which compounding pharmacy fills the order, and its accreditation
  • Checked FDA warning letters for Fridays

Price, availability, and compliance here are read off the seller's own pages and off primary regulatory records, named in the sources below.

What signing up with Fridays 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.

  1. 1Fridays shows a price only after you finish its medical questionnaire, so you cannot compare costs until you have shared health information.
  2. 2Red Rock Compounding Pharmacy fills the prescriptions, and Fridays names it publicly, which most sellers do not.
  3. 3The monthly price includes the medication, clinician visits and coaching.
Price shown only after intake
  • Lowest ongoing monthly price: semaglutide $249, tirzepatide $359. That leaves out membership fees, first-month rates and insurance copays.
  • Confirm that Fridays 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.

Compare every compounding pharmacy we’ve reviewed →

In its favor

  • The monthly price includes the medication, clinician visits and coaching
  • Names 4 pharmacies that fill its prescriptions, which most sellers do not
  • We found no FDA warning letters issued to Fridays

Against it

  • Semaglutide costs $249 a month, 35% above the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare
  • Tirzepatide costs $359 a month, 44% above the $250 median for compounded tirzepatide across the sellers we compare
  • 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
  • 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 Fridays charges

The standing price at Fridays is $249/month. That sits above the middle of the market, which puts the burden on whatever else is in the package.

  • Compounded semaglutide: $249/month
  • Compounded tirzepatide: $359/month
  • Brand-name semaglutide: $1,498/month
  • Brand-name tirzepatide: $1,828/month

For compounded semaglutide, the median across the sellers we compare is $185/month, so Fridays' $249 is a premium, and a premium has to buy something. Check what is bundled before you accept it.

Wellorithm dispenses semaglutide and tirzepatide from $247/month, which makes it the fair comparison to run before you commit here.

What Fridays dispenses

Fridays prescribes semaglutide (approved as Wegovy and Ozempic) and tirzepatide (approved as Zepbound and Mounjaro). Between them these are the two best-evidenced weight-loss molecules currently on the market. The choice is between an FDA-approved pen and a compounded preparation that costs less. Compounding is lawful and often appropriate, but a compounded product is not an approved one, and the price gap is largely that difference.

Safety and disclosure

Fridays tells you the pharmacy that fills its prescriptions. It also offers coaching as part of the plan. We found no FDA warning letters issued to Fridays. Because the medication is compounded, the named pharmacy is the detail that matters most: its license is the one you can look up. How we weigh oversight, disclosure and price is set out in our scoring methodology.

Who should look elsewhere

  • You care most about the twelve-month total, not the first bill. A flat-rate seller such as Collective will usually win that math.
  • You need insurance to cover the cost. Check whether Fridays bills your plan before you start.

It fits if

  • you want coaching bundled in rather than billed on top

Our read

Fridays costs more than the middle of this market. If the extras it charges for are ones you would actually use, that is a defensible trade. If not, the same molecule is available for less. The catch is disclosure, which is why Fridays scores low on Trust & Safety: settle the pharmacy and pricing questions above before the price decides for you. Direct Meds is the nearest comparison we review, and worth reading alongside this.

The Bottom Line

Fridays falls below our bar on disclosure. Read the breakdown below before you give it money.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fridays is a telehealth weight loss seller running compounded GLP-1 programs. We rate it 5.7/10 overall.
Fridays starts at $249 a month. The pricing table above lists every tier.
Ask Fridays whether it serves your state before you start the intake, and get the answer in writing.
Fridays sells semaglutide (sold as Wegovy and Ozempic) and tirzepatide (sold as Zepbound and Mounjaro). Both are listed in FDA-approved brand form and in a cheaper compounded form.
Fridays lists both. Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide come out of a licensed compounding pharmacy and cost less. The brand pens are the FDA-approved reference products and cost more. What you give up on each path is set out in the review above.
Check whether Fridays bills your insurance before you sign up. Compounded GLP-1s are rarely covered by insurance, so plan on paying the listed cash price.
Fridays says the price covers medication, the clinician visit and coaching. The strip near the top of this review shows what is included and what is not.
You fill in an online intake, a licensed clinician decides whether a GLP-1 is appropriate, and if the answer is yes the medication ships to you. Fridays runs that whole sequence on its own site.
We found no FDA warning letters issued to Fridays. Before you buy, weigh these: Semaglutide costs $249 a month, 35% above the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare. Tirzepatide costs $359 a month, 44% above the $250 median for compounded tirzepatide across the sellers we compare. You only see a price after finishing the medical intake, so you cannot compare costs before sharing health information. None of them rules Fridays out, but each is worth settling before you pay.
