HelloWellness sells compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only on a 3-month plan: $399 up front for semaglutide and $499 for tirzepatide, shown on the site as $133 and $166 a month. Each plan renews every 11 weeks, so a year works out to about $157 or $197 a month. The plan covers the provider review, medication, syringes and a members-only community. Southend Pharmacy fills prescriptions, and the LegitScript seal on the site is for a related domain.

Is HelloWellness legit?
Yes. HelloWellness is a real, operating US company, and we found no FDA warning letters issued to it. Its site shows LegitScript certification. We rate it 7.6/10 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 HelloWellness promo or coupon code?
We know of no promo or coupon code for HelloWellness. Its listed price is $133 a month. Coupon sites advertising "HelloWellness discount codes" are not a source we can vouch for, and any genuine offer shows at checkout without a code.

How HelloWellness scores
Six columns, each one computed from something HelloWellness 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%
6.0/10$166/month is 38% below the $269 median for compounded tirzepatide across the sellers we compare. Every listed price requires paying for several months up front, so Value is capped at 6.
Effectiveness25%
10.0/10Dispenses semaglutide and tirzepatide, compounded only. Anchored to SURMOUNT-1 (tirzepatide, -20.9%) and STEP 1 (semaglutide, -14.9%).
User Experience15%

Trust & Safety15%

What signing up with HelloWellness 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.
- 1HelloWellness 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.
- 2AP Max, Inc. d/b/a Southend Pharmacy fills the prescriptions, and HelloWellness names it publicly, which most sellers do not.
- 3The monthly price includes the medication, clinician visits and shipping.
Price shown before you start
- Lowest ongoing monthly price: semaglutide $133, tirzepatide $166. That leaves out membership fees, first-month rates and insurance copays.
- Confirm that HelloWellness 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.

Every figure here comes from HelloWellness's own website, as of the date shown. Sellers move prices without announcing it, and promotional rates lapse, so confirm the standing cost on their site before committing.
HelloWellness compounding-pharmacy partners
HelloWellness names each pharmacy below as one that compounds or fills its prescriptions, in its own site, terms or filings. The quote under each one is the seller’s own wording.
In its favor
- Semaglutide costs $133 a month, 33% below the $199 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare
- Tirzepatide costs $166 a month, 38% below the $269 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 includes the medication, clinician visits and shipping
- Names AP Max, Inc. d/b/a Southend Pharmacy as the pharmacy that fills its prescriptions, which most sellers do not
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to HelloWellness
Against it
- 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 HelloWellness charges
HelloWellness charges $133/month.
- Compounded semaglutide: $133/month
- Compounded tirzepatide: $166/month
For compounded tirzepatide, the median across the sellers we compare is $269/month, so HelloWellness' $166 is genuinely below the middle, not just advertised that way. Some of HelloWellness' plans are paid several months up front, so read the terms you agree to at checkout before you choose a longer one. Across the compounded market the dearest tenth of sellers charges about three times what the cheapest tenth does; how much GLP-1 prices actually vary explains the spread.
Live Vital dispenses semaglutide and tirzepatide from $130/month, which makes it the fair comparison to run before you commit here.
What HelloWellness dispenses
HelloWellness 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. The molecule can be the one in Ozempic and Wegovy; what differs is the formulation, the concentration and the dose ladder.
Safety and disclosure
HelloWellness tells you its price before you start the medical questionnaire and the pharmacy that fills its prescriptions. We found no FDA warning letters issued to HelloWellness. Because the medication is compounded, the named pharmacy is the detail that matters most: its license is the one you can look up. The FDA's warning signs for online medicine sellers are a quick check to run on any seller before you pay. How we weigh oversight, disclosure and price is set out in our scoring methodology.
HelloWellness also sells NAD+, and a 2026 systematic review found no outcomes trials of injected NAD+ for anti-aging or wellness.
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 HelloWellness bills your plan before you start.
It fits if
- the lowest standing monthly cost is what you are solving for
Our read
HelloWellness competes on price without an obvious sacrifice elsewhere: $166/month for compounded tirzepatide, no FDA warning letters.
The Bottom Line
HelloWellness scores highest on the clinical side (which drugs it prescribes and how it doses) and lowest on availability. It charges from $133 a month, paid up front; its compounded tirzepatide, at $166, paid up front, is 38% below the $269 median among the sellers we compare.

Where HelloWellness 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 WellMedRx.
- If the standing monthly cost is what decides it, consider Collective (from $59/mo + membership).
- If you want a human checking in, not just a prescription, consider Eden.
If none of these fits, our guide to alternatives to HelloWellness sets more sellers in the same category beside HelloWellness on price, states and what the price includes.

HelloWellness starts at $133 a month. The pricing table above lists every tier.
Ask HelloWellness whether it serves your state before you start the intake, and get the answer in writing.
HelloWellness lists compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide.
HelloWellness lists compounded GLP-1s only. A licensed compounding pharmacy prepares them: same active ingredient as the brand drug, lower cash price, and no FDA approval of the finished product. That last part is the one readers underestimate, and the review above says why.
Check whether HelloWellness bills your insurance before you sign up. Compounded GLP-1s are rarely covered by insurance, so plan on paying the listed cash price.
HelloWellness says the price covers medication, the clinician visit and shipping. 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. HelloWellness runs that whole sequence on its own site.
We found no FDA warning letters issued to HelloWellness. Before you buy, weigh these: 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. None of them rules HelloWellness out, but each is worth settling before you pay.
Other sellers we cover include Live Vital, bmiMD, and Ivim Health. Which one fits depends on the medication, the monthly price you can sustain and whether it ships to your state, so compare those three facts before you switch.
