Costs stay hidden until the clinical intake is done, so you confirm them during signup; the marketing pages carry no GLP-1 price. New York and Colorado are the only two states served right now. Risen Labs LLC, at risenlabstx.com, puts hormone and men's health programs beside once-weekly injections of compounded tirzepatide and semaglutide for weight loss, and names Olympia Pharmacy, a 503A compounder, as the maker.

How Risen Labs scores
Six columns, each one computed from something Risen Labs 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.
Value25%
3.0/10No monthly price is published at all, so value cannot be measured against the register. Capped rather than scored.
Effectiveness25%
5.0/10Publishes no medication list or price, so what is prescribed here cannot be established. Held at the midpoint — this is a gap in the record, not a finding about the drugs.
User Experience15%
3.0/10On the seller's own pages, no price appears until the medical intake is finished.
Trust & Safety15%
5.0/10does not name a dispensing pharmacy; withholds price until after the intake; publishes its state list. Our verification confidence is medium.
Accessibility10%
2.3/10Publishes coverage in 2 of 50 states.
Support10%
5.0/10No published price, so what a price would include cannot be assessed. Held at the midpoint.
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 Risen Labs
Last checked July 2026- Checked state coverage: 2 states
- 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: medium.
What signing up with Risen Labs 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.
- 1Risen Labs does not show a price until you have worked through its medical questionnaire. Budget for the fact that you cannot compare it against anything until you have handed over health information.
- 2The intake is a written questionnaire. No live video visit or baseline bloodwork is recorded as required.
- 3Risen Labs 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.
- 4The monthly price is recorded as covering consult.
- No comparable monthly cash price for the medication is on record — either nothing is published, or what is published is a fee, an insured copay or a per-vial rate rather than a monthly cost.
- Coverage is published for 2 of 50 states.
GLP-1 medications Risen Labs offers
Each one has its own guide: how the molecule works, the dosing schedule, the side effects that show up in practice, and what the trials actually measured.
In its favor
- The monthly figure covers consult
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
Against it
- No price appears until the medical intake is complete, so the cost cannot be compared before health information is submitted
- Coverage is published for 2 states only, so this may not reach you
- No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
What Risen Labs charges
Risen Labs does not publish a standing monthly price. That is a choice, and it means you cannot compare it against anything until you have gone through an intake and been quoted. When you get that quote, ask specifically for the ongoing monthly figure and what it includes — not the first-month rate, and not a program total divided by its length.
What Risen Labs dispenses
Risen Labs 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.
What we could verify
On the record: it operates in 2 states and it dispenses through an accredited compounding pharmacy. We searched the federal warning-letter record for this operator and came back with nothing. 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 compare prices before committing time to an intake — there is no published figure to compare.
- You need to bill insurance. Like most of this market, this is cash-pay.
Our read
We cannot tell you whether Risen Labs is priced well, because it does not say. That is not automatically disqualifying — plenty of legitimate operators quote after intake — but it does mean the comparison has to happen after you have spent the time, which is the wrong order for the buyer. CoreAge Rx is the nearest comparison we track, and worth reading alongside this.
The Bottom Line
Risen Labs falls below our bar on medical oversight. Read the breakdown below before you give it money.

Where Risen Labs 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.
- If your state is outside the area this one covers, consider Direct Meds.
