Tirzepatide is not just stronger semaglutide

It acts on two receptors, GIP and GLP-1. That is a real pharmacological difference, not marketing — and it is not a licence to rank the drugs.

FDA-approved branded cash prices, verified 2026-09-15 — the baseline any compounded price should be measured against.
MedicationCash priceNote
Wegovy (pill) $149/mo FDA-approved
Wegovy (pen) $349/mo $199 first two months
Zepbound (vials) $299/mo $299-449 depending on dose

Both are agonists — they activate receptors, they do not block them. Anyone telling you a GLP-1 "blocks" anything has the mechanism backwards.

Every tirzepatide provider we could verify

Anything we could not re-check inside two weeks is held back.

Compounded tirzepatide — ranked by what twelve months actually costs, not by the advertised price. Verified 2026-09-15, every figure read off the provider's own page on that date. Providers who will not publish a renewal price are listed last, because their annual cost cannot be known.

Free, and the only thing we ask for

Three of these prices changed last month.

We re-check every price on this page each week. Put your email in and we will tell you when one of them moves — up or down — so you are not the last to know you are overpaying.

One email a week at most, and only when something actually changed. Unsubscribe in one click.

We take your email and nothing else. Not your weight, not your dose, not which page you came in on — we deliberately do not store that, because on a site about medication the page you were reading is itself a fact about your health. No pixels, no advertising trackers, never sold. Read the privacy page, it is short and it is true.

Before you pay anyone, six questions

The cheapest advertised number is rarely the number you pay.

Does the price include the medication?

Several well-known programs advertise a membership fee and bill the drug separately, on the same card, in the same typeface.

Does month two cost what month one costs?

Introductory pricing that steps up later is common and perfectly legal — as long as you know before you enter a card.

Is there a minimum term?

The FTC's 2025 case against a GLP-1 telehealth firm turned partly on a twelve-month commitment that was not clearly disclosed.

Do you pay before or after approval?

The difference between a refund you have to chase and a charge that never happens.

Which pharmacy compounds it?

503A or 503B, by name. A provider that will not answer this is the one FDA was writing to.

How do you cancel?

In the app, by phone during business hours, or only by email 48 hours ahead? All three exist in the table above.

Frequently asked questions

Is compounded tirzepatide still legal in 2026?

It is being sold openly, but the legal basis that made it widely available is gone. Tirzepatide came off FDA's shortage list in December 2024, semaglutide in February 2025 — and the enforcement discretion that permitted large-scale compounding ended through spring 2025. Compounding a drug that is "essentially a copy" of an available FDA-approved product is not permitted, and FDA has said cost and convenience do not qualify as the exception.

Why is your table shorter than other comparison sites?

Because we hold back any price we have not read off the provider's own page within the last fourteen days. Two providers are withheld right now — one publishes no price at all on its own site, and another's pricing page renders blank. We would rather list 16 providers correctly than 22 as they were in March.

Does insurance cover compounded medication?

Almost never, and the reason is structural rather than a coverage decision. Claims pay against FDA-approved products identified by an NDC. A compounded preparation has no NDC, so there is usually nothing for the claim system to pay against. The full answer is here.

How do you make money, and does it change the order?

Some providers pay us a commission when a reader signs up. It does not set the order — the table is sorted by verified price, cheapest first, and providers who pay us nothing appear alongside those who do. The full method is published here.

Is compounded medication the same as Wegovy or Zepbound?

No. Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved products, are not generic versions of the branded drugs, and are not established as equivalent to them. FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness, or quality before they reach patients. Any seller telling you otherwise is making the specific claim FDA wrote to thirty telehealth companies about in 2026.
