VivioMD sells GLP-1 weight-loss care online, both compounded and brand-name, prescribed by OpenLoop Healthcare Partners clinicians. Its homepage lists starting prices (personalized GLP-1 injections or tablets from $299 a month, GLP-1+GIP injections from $398, brand Ozempic from $1,299) and says its price does not rise with the dose and that shipping and a live provider consult are included. In June 2026 the FDA warned it for website labels that implied it compounds the drugs.

How VivioMD scores

Six columns, each one computed from something VivioMD 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%

9.0/10

Dispenses semaglutide, including the FDA-approved product. Anchored to STEP 1 (semaglutide, -14.9%).

User Experience15%

3.0/10

No price appears until the medical intake is finished.

Trust & Safety15%

2.0/10

The FDA has issued it a warning letter. No pharmacy is named for its prescriptions. Its price appears only after the medical intake. It lists the states it serves.

Accessibility10%

10.0/10

Serves all 50 states.

Support10%

4.0/10

The price covers clinician visits and shipping.

What signing up with VivioMD 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. 1VivioMD shows a price only after you finish its medical questionnaire, so you cannot compare costs until you have shared health information.
  2. 2VivioMD does not require a live video visit before a first prescription.
  3. 3Ask VivioMD which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay. The pharmacy's name is what lets you check its license.
  4. 4The monthly price includes clinician visits and shipping.
Price shown only after intake
  • 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.
  • VivioMD serves all 50 states.
  • The FDA has issued VivioMD a warning letter. It is covered in the enforcement section below; read what it alleges before you decide.

In its favor

  • The monthly price stays the same as your dose goes up
  • The monthly price includes clinician visits and shipping
  • Serves all 50 states

Against it

  • You only see a price after finishing the medical intake, so you cannot compare costs before sharing health information
  • Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
  • The FDA has issued VivioMD a warning letter. Read what it alleges: a letter flags a problem but does not by itself rule a seller out

What VivioMD charges

VivioMD lists $1,299/month, flat regardless of dose. Flat dose pricing matters more than it sounds: on a tiered plan the bill grows with the dose, so the figure that got you to sign up is not the one you end up paying. Before you pay, compare VivioMD's cancellation terms with other sellers' cancellation and refund policies.

  • Ozempic: $1,299/month

MangoRx dispenses semaglutide from $299/month, which makes it the fair comparison to run before you commit here.

What VivioMD dispenses

VivioMD prescribes semaglutide (approved as Wegovy and Ozempic). That is among the best-evidenced options in this class. 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 pen has been reviewed. Brand names vs molecules sorts out which pen holds which drug.

Safety and disclosure

VivioMD tells you that it treats patients in all 50 states. It also offers clinician messaging between visits. The FDA has issued VivioMD a warning letter, summarized at the top of this page. A letter flags a problem rather than ruling a seller out, so read what it says before deciding what it means for you. Across the market, the FDA's GLP-1 warning letters are mostly about what sellers said rather than what pharmacies made. 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 VivioMD bills your plan before you start.
  • A seller's regulatory history matters to you more than price. Read the warning letter summarized above before deciding.

It fits if

  • you want the price to stop moving as your dose climbs
  • you need access wherever you live
  • reaching a clinician between visits matters to you

Our read

VivioMD charges $1,299/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 catch is disclosure, which is why VivioMD scores low on Trust & Safety: settle the pharmacy and pricing questions above before the price decides for you. Whatever you decide, read the warning letter summarized at the top of this page first, and raise it with the clinician who would prescribe for you.

The Bottom Line

VivioMD falls below our bar on oversight: the FDA has issued it a warning letter. It charges from $1,299 a month.

Where VivioMD is the wrong choice

No seller suits every reader, and pretending otherwise is the easiest way to sell one. On these two counts, another seller does better.

  • If the standing monthly cost is what decides it, consider WellMedRx (from $49/mo).
  • If you want a human checking in, not just a prescription, consider Eden.

If none of these fits, our guide to alternatives to VivioMD sets more sellers in the same category beside VivioMD on price, states and what the price includes.
