Compounded tirzepatide
Actin review
Actin's 1-Month tirzepatide plan costs $269, and you can pause, skip or cancel it from your account. Prepaying for six months brings the rate down to $166 a month. There's no membership fee, and no video call is required.
Who it suits
Good fit if
- You want to start month to month and keep the option to stop.
- You'd like to pay with HSA or FSA funds.
- You'd rather skip video visits and have a provider review a written intake.
Look elsewhere if
- You're drawn in by the $166 figure but don't want to commit to six months.
- You'd want a refund if you change your mind, since Actin's terms make all sales final.
What you get
Actin prices tirzepatide in three plan lengths. One month is $269, the 3-month plan costs less per month, and the 6-month plan is cheapest at $166 a month. Every plan includes unlimited 24/7 doctor support, dose adjustments, wipes and syringes, and free delivery. The product page promises the “Same price, forever.”
Your provider may prescribe tirzepatide with either B12 or glycine. Actin says B12 can help with energy and tolerability, while glycine may help preserve muscle. Prescriptions are filled by The Pharmacy Hub in Miami Gardens, GreenwichRX in Tomball, Texas, or Hallandale Pharmacy in Fort Lauderdale.
Medical care comes from Beluga Health, P.A., a Houston practice. Actin itself is a Miami telehealth company, not a pharmacy. It says every batch from its partner pharmacies is third-party tested.
How it works
- Answer the online questionnaire, which Actin says takes under five minutes.
- A licensed provider reviews your answers the same day. There are no video calls or waiting rooms.
- If you're approved, most prescriptions ship within 2 to 3 business days in plain packaging, with no signature needed.
- Refills run automatically. Actin schedules each shipment about 7 days before your current supply runs out.
- Manage the subscription in the Treatments section of your account, where you can pause, skip or cancel.

- Beluga Health providers can prescribe tirzepatide with B12 or with glycine.

Actin questions
- Is Actin legit?
- Actin Health is a Miami-based telehealth company. Beluga Health, P.A. provides the medical care, and three licensed compounding pharmacies fill the prescriptions. Its tirzepatide is compounded, so it isn't FDA-approved, and Actin's product page says so.
- How much does Actin tirzepatide cost per month?
- $269 on the 1-Month plan. The 6-month plan brings it to $166 a month, and the 3-month plan sits in between. Support, supplies and delivery are included. Actin's compounded semaglutide is $169 on the 1-Month plan.
- Can I use HSA or FSA at Actin?
- Yes. Actin lists HSA and FSA payments among its features. It's otherwise cash-pay, with no insurance involved.
- Can you cancel Actin?
- Yes. Cancel, pause or skip from the Treatments section of your account, or contact support. The cancellation takes effect after the current period, and fees already paid aren't refunded.
