How NewSelf scores

Six columns, each one computed from something NewSelf 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 it publishes nothing, that absence is what gets scored. Every seller in the register goes through the same six columns.

A seller that will not show a price before an intake loses points on Value and carries that note in its review. Withholding the number is itself a finding. How we score →

What we checked on NewSelf

Last checked August 2026
  • Re-read the price on file across 4 dose or plan tiers
  • Checked state coverage: all 50
  • Established what the monthly figure covers, and what it leaves out
  • Searched our FDA enforcement register for this operator

Price, availability, and compliance here are read off the seller's own pages and off primary regulatory records, named in the sources below. Editorial confidence in this data: high.

What signing up with NewSelf involves

Assembled from this seller’s entry in the register — the price record, the state list, the dispensing pharmacy where one is named, and what the monthly figure covers. It describes what a reader can expect to meet on the way to a prescription, and what is missing from the seller’s own disclosures. It is not a clinical judgment and not a prescribing decision.

  1. 1NewSelf publishes a price on its own site before asking anything about you. You can compare it against this register without starting a questionnaire.
  2. 2The intake is a written questionnaire. No live video visit or baseline bloodwork is recorded as required.
  3. 3NewSelf does not say which pharmacy dispenses the medication. That is common here and it means you cannot check the pharmacy's record before you buy.
  4. 4The monthly price is recorded as covering medication, consult, shipping.
Price shown before you start
  • Cheapest standing monthly prices on record: semaglutide $100, tirzepatide $144. Membership fees, first-month rates and insured copays are excluded from those figures.
  • Coverage is published for 49 of 50 states.
  • 1 FDA warning letter on record. The letter itself is linked in the enforcement section below — read what it alleges rather than the fact that it exists.
  • 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.

In its favor

  • Semaglutide at $100 a month, 47% below the $189 median for the same drug and form across this register
  • Tirzepatide at $144 a month, 46% below the $267 median for the same drug and form across this register
  • Publishes a price on its own site before the medical questionnaire, so it can be compared without handing over health information
  • The monthly price is recorded as flat across doses, so it does not climb as the dose is titrated up
  • The monthly figure covers medication, consult, shipping
  • Coverage is published for 49 states

Against it

  • No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
  • 1 FDA warning letter matched to this operator in our enforcement register — read what the letter alleges, since a letter discloses a problem rather than disqualifying a seller
  • 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 NewSelf charges

The standing price at NewSelf is $100/month, unchanged as the dose goes up. That sits at the affordable end of what we track. Flat dose pricing matters more than it reads: on a tiered plan the bill grows as the dose does, which means the figure that persuaded you to sign up is not the figure you end up living with.

  • Compounded semaglutide — $100/month
  • Compounded semaglutide — $135/month
  • Compounded tirzepatide — $144/month
  • Compounded tirzepatide — $225/month

Across the GLP-1 providers in our register the median standing price is about $169/month, so NewSelf is genuinely under the middle rather than merely advertising that it is.

CoreAge Rx dispenses semaglutide and tirzepatide from $99/month, which makes it the honest comparison to run before committing here.

What NewSelf dispenses

NewSelf 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. These are compounded preparations from a licensed pharmacy rather than approved pens, which is where the lower price comes from. A compounded drug is not FDA-approved as a finished product — the specific preparation has not been reviewed for safety, efficacy or manufacturing quality.

What we could verify

On the record: it treats patients in all 50 states and it dispenses through an accredited compounding pharmacy. FDA has sent this operator a warning letter, and we flag it at the top of the page. A letter is a disclosure, not a disqualification: read what it actually says before deciding what it means for you. Because the medication is compounded and no dispensing pharmacy is named publicly, the single most useful question to ask at intake is which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription. A seller that will not answer that has told you something. How we weigh oversight, disclosure and price evidence is set out in our scoring methodology.

Who should look elsewhere

  • You want the FDA-approved pen specifically. Nothing here is the approved finished product.
  • You need to bill insurance. Like most of this market, this is cash-pay.
  • A regulatory record matters to you more than price does — read the warning letter flagged above before deciding.

It fits if

  • the lowest standing monthly cost is what you are solving for
  • you want the price to stop moving as your dose climbs
  • you need access regardless of where you live

Our read

NewSelf competes on price, and at $100/month it competes well. The FDA letter on file is the thing to weigh against that, not a footnote to it. Whatever you decide, read the warning letter flagged at the top of this page first, and raise it with the clinician you would be prescribing through.

The Bottom Line

NewSelf falls below our bar on medical oversight. Read the breakdown below before you give it money.

Where NewSelf is the wrong choice

No seller in this register suits every reader, and saying otherwise would be the easiest way to sell one. On these four counts another entry does better.

  • If you need the FDA-approved pen rather than a compounded vial, consider Found.
  • If you want a human checking in, not just a prescription, consider Oak.

Frequently Asked Questions

Glossary

The words sellers use, defined. Tap any term.

Regulatory notice

NewSelf has an FDA warning letter on record, dated February 20, 2026

This letter concerns false & misleading claims/misbranded. A warning letter is public correspondence from FDA, not an adjudication. On its own it establishes no finding of illegal activity, and a company that gets one often answers with corrective action.
