Compounded tirzepatide
CoraDoc review
CoraDoc sells tirzepatide as a one-time program, not a subscription. The shortest one is a six-week starter kit for $399, which works out to $289 a month. You pay once, nothing renews on its own, and a video visit with a provider comes before anything ships.
Who it suits
Good fit if
- You've never taken tirzepatide and want a short, low-dose trial before committing to months of it.
- You dislike auto-renewals, because CoraDoc never charges your card a second time without a new order.
- You'd rather talk to a provider on video than be approved from a form alone.
Look elsewhere if
- You want a price that stays flat as your dose climbs, since the six-week kit covers only the starting doses.
- You're already on tirzepatide at a higher dose, which puts you in CoraDoc's pricier maintenance program.
What you get
The $399 starter program covers six weeks of compounded tirzepatide, the provider visit, syringes, alcohol wipes, a sharps container and free 2-day shipping. CoraDoc calls this its Triple Free Promise: free visit, free shipping, free supplies. The dose steps up once, after week four, and your provider can adjust it along the way.
When the six weeks are up, you buy the next program yourself. New patients can choose 3, 6 or 12-month versions at lower monthly rates. People already on a steady dose go to a maintenance program that starts at three months and covers any strength, including the maximum.
CoraDoc is based in Dallas and lists its physicians and nurse practitioner by name. Its weight-loss page says orders ship through DIRX pharmacy, and the product pages add that partners include licensed compounding pharmacies and FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facilities. Certificates of Analysis are available on request.
How it works
- Choose the six-week new-patient program and pay at checkout. Affirm, Klarna, Afterpay and HSA or FSA cards are accepted.
- Complete the online medical intake. CoraDoc then books a two-way video consultation with a licensed provider.
- If the provider prescribes, a partner pharmacy compounds your tirzepatide and ships it. CoraDoc says most patients receive it within 3 to 5 business days of the consultation.
- Near the end of the six weeks, place a new order for the next program. Later check-ins can run through a monthly survey instead of another video call.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Nothing auto-renews: CoraDoc's FAQ says it runs on a one-time payment model, so there's no subscription to cancel.
- Every new patient gets a live video consultation with a CoraDoc provider before a prescription is written.
- The starter kit includes syringes, alcohol wipes and a sharps container, plus free 2-day shipping.
Cons
- Continuing past 6 weeks means a new purchase at a new price, since the kit covers only two starting doses.
- If you're declined, CoraDoc's refund policy keeps a clinical service fee, though its program page promises a full refund.
- Patients already on tirzepatide must buy CoraDoc's maintenance program, which starts at 3 months.
Check before you pay
- If you're not approved
- The program page promises a full refund if the provider decides tirzepatide isn't right for you. CoraDoc's refund policy instead keeps a clinical service fee when no prescription is issued. Ask which applies before you pay.
- Canceling after checkout
- There's no subscription, so there's nothing to cancel later. To stop an order, call or email the care team right away. Once the prescription is in progress or shipped, it can't be refunded.
- Which program you're in
- New-patient programs start low and step up. Maintenance covers any dose but costs more per month. Your provider can move you to the right one before anything ships.

CoraDoc questions
- Is CoraDoc legit?
- CoraDoc is a LegitScript-certified telehealth company based in Dallas, Texas. Licensed physicians and a nurse practitioner, named on its site, see new patients by video before prescribing. Its tirzepatide is compounded, so it isn't Mounjaro or Zepbound and isn't FDA-approved as a finished drug, which CoraDoc states itself.
- How much is CoraDoc tirzepatide per month?
- The six-week starter program costs $399 in one payment, which is about $289 a month. The visit, supplies and shipping are included. Longer programs cost less per month, and the maintenance program costs more.
- Does CoraDoc take insurance?
- No. CoraDoc doesn't accept public or private insurance, but it will send an invoice you can submit for possible reimbursement. HSA and FSA cards work, as do Affirm, Klarna and Afterpay.
- Is CoraDoc a subscription?
- No. Each program is a single payment with no automatic renewal. When it runs out, you decide whether to order another.
