Foundayo (orforglipron), the new oral GLP-1 from Eli Lilly, joined Ro on April 9 2026 at $149/month for the lowest dose, membership on top. Beside it sit compounded semaglutide and the brand-name pair, Zepbound and Wegovy. No obesity care formulary in the category is more comprehensive. In the US, only a handful of direct-to-patient telehealth companies are larger.

How Ro scores
Six columns, each one computed from something Ro 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%
5.0/10$149/month is exactly the register median for brand orforglipron.
Effectiveness25%
8.0/10Dispenses orforglipron, including the FDA-approved product. Anchored to SURMOUNT-1 (tirzepatide, -20.9%) and STEP 1 (semaglutide, -14.9%).
User Experience15%
8.0/10On the seller's own pages, a price is published before the questionnaire starts.
Trust & Safety15%
8.0/10names its dispensing pharmacy; shows a price before asking for health information. Our verification confidence is medium.
Accessibility10%
5.0/10Publishes no list of states served, so coverage cannot be confirmed either way. Capped at the midpoint — this measures disclosure, not reach.
Support10%
5.5/10The price covers consult, labs, coaching.

What we checked on Ro
Last checked August 2026- Re-read the price on file across 1 dose or plan tier
- Established what the monthly figure covers, and what it leaves out
- Confirmed which compounding pharmacy fills the order, and its accreditation
- 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 Ro 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.
- 1Ro publishes a price on its own site before asking anything about you. You can compare it against this register without starting a questionnaire.
- 2The intake is a written questionnaire. No live video visit or baseline bloodwork is recorded as required.
- 3A prescription is dispensed by Roman Health Pharmacy LLC, which Ro names publicly. Most sellers in this register do not.
- 4The monthly price is recorded as covering consult, labs, coaching.
Price shown before you start
- Cheapest standing monthly prices on record: orforglipron $149. Membership fees, first-month rates and insured copays are excluded from those figures.
- No state list is published, so whether Ro serves your state cannot be confirmed from its site.
GLP-1 medications Ro 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.

Every figure here was read off Ro'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.
Ro compounding-pharmacy partners
Each partner below is a 503A or 503B pharmacy that Ro routes prescriptions through. Each entry is anchored to a verbatim primary-source quote from the provider’s or pharmacy’s own site.
In its favor
- Orforglipron at $149 a month, within the normal band around this register's $149 median for the same drug and form
- Publishes a price on its own site before the medical questionnaire, so it can be compared without handing over health information
- The monthly figure covers consult, labs, coaching
- Names Roman Health Pharmacy LLC as the dispensing pharmacy, which most sellers in this register do not do
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
Against it
- Billed separately from the monthly figure: medication
- No state list is on record here, so whether it serves your state cannot be confirmed from this page
What Ro charges
The standing price at Ro is $149/month. That sits at the affordable end of what we track.
- Brand-name orforglipron — $149/month
Across the GLP-1 providers in our register the median standing price is about $169/month, so Ro is genuinely under the middle rather than merely advertising that it is.
Found, at about $149/month, is the closest thing we track to a like-for-like alternative.
What Ro dispenses
Ro 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 FDA-approved brand-name products rather than compounded preparations, which is the more expensive route and the one where what is in the vial has been reviewed.
What we could verify
On the record: it names the pharmacy that fills its prescriptions and coaching is included rather than sold on top. 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 need to bill insurance. Like most of this market, this is cash-pay.
It fits if
- the lowest standing monthly cost is what you are solving for
- you want coaching bundled rather than metered
Our read
Ro competes on price and does it without an obvious sacrifice elsewhere: $149/month, no warning letter on file, and access that is not unusually restricted.
The Bottom Line
Ro's strongest column is the clinical side — which molecules it will prescribe, and how it handles dosing.
