Semaglutide starts at $199/month. One subscription price buys the medication itself, the supplies, unlimited provider messaging over a HIPAA-compliant platform, and a telehealth visit with a physician who is board-certified. HealthSource sells compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in two forms, injectable and oral sublingual, dispensed by a partner pharmacy that is US-based and FDA 503A licensed. All 50 US states are served, and direct-to-door delivery takes 3-5 business days.
Is HealthSource legit?
Yes. HealthSource is a real, operating US company, and we found no FDA warning letters issued to it. It says its medication comes from accredited compounding pharmacies (503A, 503B or PCAB). We rate it 7.7/10 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 HealthSource promo or coupon code?
We know of no promo or coupon code for HealthSource. Its listed price is $199 a month. Coupon sites advertising "HealthSource discount codes" are not a source we can vouch for, and any genuine offer shows at checkout without a code.

How HealthSource scores
Six columns, each one computed from something HealthSource 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%).

What signing up with HealthSource 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.
- 1HealthSource 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.
- 2Ask HealthSource which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay. The pharmacy's name is what lets you check its license.
- 3The 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.
- HealthSource serves all 50 states.
- 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 HealthSource'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
- Serves all 50 states
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to HealthSource
Against it
- Tirzepatide costs $299 a month, 20% above the $250 median for compounded tirzepatide across the sellers we compare
- 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 HealthSource charges
HealthSource charges $199/month.
- Compounded semaglutide: $199/month
- Compounded tirzepatide: $299/month
- Compounded tirzepatide: $399/month
For compounded semaglutide, the median across the sellers we compare is $185/month, so HealthSource'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 HealthSource dispenses
HealthSource prescribes semaglutide (approved as Wegovy and Ozempic) and tirzepatide (approved as Zepbound and Mounjaro). Between them these are the two molecules with the largest published weight-loss trial programs behind them. 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.
A needle-free oral option is genuinely uncommon and is the reason some readers will look at HealthSource at all. Set expectations on the evidence, though: the published weight-loss trials for these molecules used injections. Oral and sublingual delivery of peptides is far less studied, so treat it as a route that solves the needle problem rather than as a proven equal to the shot.
Safety and disclosure
HealthSource tells you its price before you start the medical questionnaire, that it treats patients in all 50 states, and that its pharmacy is accredited. It also offers clinician messaging between visits. We found no FDA warning letters issued to HealthSource. Because the medication is compounded, the most useful question to ask at intake is which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription. If HealthSource 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 HealthSource bills your plan before you start.
It fits if
- injections are the thing keeping you from starting
- you need access wherever you live
- reaching a clinician between visits matters to you
Our read
HealthSource 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
HealthSource's strongest column is the clinical side: which molecules it will prescribe, and how it handles dosing.

Starting at $199 a month. Check today's price, then start the intake.
Where HealthSource 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.
