A summer promotion puts compounded semaglutide injections at $179/mo to start. OnlyRx takes cash only and sells both molecules two ways, injected or as oral disintegrating tablets (ODT), so a needle can be avoided; branded GLP-1s are written where appropriate. Prescribers are named, as is a fulfillment network of four pharmacies. All 50 states are served, and Buy Now Pay Later is offered.

Is OnlyRx legit?

Yes. OnlyRx is a real, operating US company, and we found no FDA warning letters issued to it. We rate it 6.6/10 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 an OnlyRx promo or coupon code?

We know of no promo or coupon code for OnlyRx. Its listed price is $179 a month. Coupon sites advertising "OnlyRx discount codes" are not a source we can vouch for, and any genuine offer shows at checkout without a code.

How OnlyRx scores

Six columns, each one computed from something OnlyRx 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%

3.0/10

The listed figure is not a comparable monthly price for a named GLP-1 (it may be a membership fee, an insured copay, a per-vial rate or a starting-dose price), so Value is capped rather than scored against other sellers.

Effectiveness25%

10.0/10

Dispenses semaglutide and tirzepatide, compounded only. Anchored to SURMOUNT-1 (tirzepatide, -20.9%) and STEP 1 (semaglutide, -14.9%).

User Experience15%

8.0/10

A price is shown before the questionnaire starts.

Trust & Safety15%

6.5/10

No pharmacy is named for its prescriptions. It shows a price before asking for health information.

Accessibility10%

5.0/10

No state list is available to check, so this is held at the midpoint rather than scored on reach.

Support10%

7.0/10

The price covers the medication, clinician visits and shipping.

What signing up with OnlyRx 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. 1OnlyRx 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.
  2. 2Ask OnlyRx which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay. The pharmacy's name is what lets you check its license.
  3. 3The monthly price includes the medication, clinician visits and shipping.
Price shown before you start
  • Before you commit, get the ongoing monthly price of the medication itself, not a first-month rate, a membership fee or a per-vial price.
  • Confirm that OnlyRx serves your state before you start.

In its favor

  • 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 OnlyRx

Against it

  • 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 OnlyRx charges

The standing price at OnlyRx is $179/month.

  • Semaglutide: $179/month
  • Tirzepatide: $249/month
  • Semaglutide: $249/month
  • Tirzepatide: $279/month

Bodybuilding Health+, at about $179/month, is the closest like-for-like alternative we review.

What OnlyRx dispenses

OnlyRx 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.

A needle-free oral option is genuinely uncommon and is the reason some readers will look at OnlyRx 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

OnlyRx tells you its price before you start the medical questionnaire. We found no FDA warning letters issued to OnlyRx. How we weigh oversight, disclosure and price is set out in our scoring methodology.

Who should look elsewhere

  • You need insurance to cover the cost. Check whether OnlyRx bills your plan before you start.

It fits if

  • injections are the thing keeping you from starting

Our read

OnlyRx charges $179/month. Too few sellers offer the same drug and form to say whether that is cheap or expensive, so judge it on what the package includes.

The Bottom Line

OnlyRx's strongest column is the clinical side: which molecules it will prescribe, and how it handles dosing.

Where OnlyRx 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.
