Compounded tirzepatide
Aspire Health review
Aspire Health prices compounded tirzepatide by the vial, starting at $149 for a 4-week vial at 2.5 mg. A required Monthly Medical Care fee sits on top, so a starting month comes to about $211. Vial prices rise with the dose.
Who it suits
Good fit if
- You'd like a small practice whose providers are named on its site.
- You want to see every vial price before your first visit.
- You'd like the option of brand-name Zepbound later, since Aspire lists both.
Look elsewhere if
- You want one price that stays flat as the dose climbs.
- You want medication without an ongoing care fee attached.
What you get
Aspire's compounded product is a tirzepatide/B3 formula. The price table lists each weekly dose with its vial price. A 2.5 mg vial lasts 4 weeks at $149, and each step up costs more. The 7.5 mg and 12.5 mg doses use a double-strength formula, so those vials last a little longer.
The first consultation is free. After that, Monthly Medical Care is billed separately and covers provider visits, messaging and prescription management. You can order one, two or three vials at a time, and they ship together.
Aspire's FAQ names its pharmacies: Strive Pharmacy in Arizona, Rush Pharmacy in Florida and Texas, and Boudreaux's New Drug Store in Louisiana. Jenni Haan, a physician assistant, founded the practice in 2022.
How it works
- Fill in the secure online intake form on Aspire's site.
- Book the free new-patient consultation with a licensed provider by message, phone or video.
- The provider confirms your weekly dose and the right vial size before prescribing.
- The medication ships from a partner pharmacy, and multi-vial orders arrive in one box.
- Stay enrolled in Monthly Medical Care for follow-ups, dose changes and refills.
Pros and cons
Pros
- The first visit with an Aspire Health provider is free.
- Every tirzepatide dose from 2.5 mg to 15 mg has its vial price printed on the page.
- Aspire lists its pharmacies by name, including Strive Pharmacy and Rush Pharmacy.
Cons
- Monthly Medical Care is billed on top of the vials, and staying enrolled is required to keep getting medication.
- Vial prices climb with the dose, so the $211 starting month is the cheapest you'll see.
- Canceling takes an email to Aspire, and it only takes effect at the end of the billing cycle.
Check before you pay
- Which care fee applies
- The product pages list Monthly Medical Care at a flat monthly fee. Aspire's FAQ still describes a LoseIt Program at a higher monthly price. Ask which one you'll be billed before you enroll.
- How much you prepay
- The FAQ also mentions 1-, 3- and 6-month medication packages billed up front. Confirm how many vials each order covers.
- Refunds
- Consultation fees are generally kept once a provider has reviewed you. Medication is final once it ships.

Aspire Health questions
- Is Aspire Health legit?
- Aspire Health is the trade name of Aspire Care LLC, a telehealth practice founded in 2022 that names its providers on its site. Prescriptions go to licensed compounding pharmacies such as Strive and Rush. Compounded tirzepatide is not FDA-approved and is not Zepbound, as the site's disclaimer states.
- How much is Aspire Health tirzepatide per month?
- The 2.5 mg vial is $149 and lasts 4 weeks. Add the required Monthly Medical Care fee and a starting month is about $211. Higher doses cost more per vial.
- Does Aspire Health take insurance?
- Not for its telemedicine visits. The FAQ says insurance may help with some prescribed medications, such as brand-name Zepbound, and HSA and FSA cards are accepted.
- Can you cancel Aspire Health?
- Yes, by emailing the practice. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle, and partial periods aren't refunded.
