Compounded tirzepatide
Gimme Care review
Gimme Care's tirzepatide is $199 per shipment, and a shipment goes out every 28 days. Across a calendar month that's $216, at any dose, with the consultation, supplies and two-day shipping included. Gimme prints that cycle on its own product page, so there's no surprise on your statement.
Who it suits
Good fit if
- You want a seller that ships to all 50 states and Washington, D.C.
- You'll message your provider often and don't want to pay per visit.
- You're already on a GLP-1 and want to ask to stay at your current dose.
Look elsewhere if
- You want to talk to someone by phone. Support is email and portal messages only.
- You live in Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico or West Virginia and don't want a video or audio visit, which those states require.
What you get
One price covers the consultation, the medication, injection supplies, shipping and ongoing support, and Gimme says it's the same at every dose. There's no membership fee and no insurance involved. Provider messaging through the online portal is unlimited.
Gimme isn't a pharmacy. Licensed U.S. compounding pharmacies prepare the tirzepatide and send it two-day air, in insulated packaging with ice packs and a plain outer box. It won't ship to P.O. boxes or APO/FPO addresses.
How it works
- Fill out the online health questionnaire.
- A licensed U.S. provider reviews it. Most states need no video visit, but five require a short video or audio call first.
- Once you're approved, the order usually ships within 5 to 7 business days of the clinician's review.
- Refills go out every 28 days after a short check-in, and the card is charged $199 each time.
- Pause or cancel in the portal whenever you like. Changes made through customer service need 3 business days' notice before a renewal.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Every dose costs the same $199 per shipment, so a dose increase never changes the bill.
- Service covers all 50 states plus Washington, D.C., with no video visit needed in most of them.
- An order canceled before the pharmacy ships it gets a full refund within 5 to 10 business days.
Cons
- Charging every 28 days adds a 13th charge each year, which is why a month really costs $216.
- There's no phone line; help comes by email or portal message, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern.
- Damage claims have a 48-hour window and need photos of the medication and packaging.
Check before you pay
- Your renewal date
- Plans renew automatically at the same frequency as your first order. If you're changing or canceling through customer service rather than the portal, get the request in at least 3 business days before it.
- When a refund is still possible
- Only before the pharmacy dispenses or ships your order. Email Gimme's support address straight away if you change your mind. After shipping, the sale is final.
- The 3-month plan
- Gimme's 3-month option costs less per month but bills the whole term at once. The $216 a month shown above is the month-to-month plan.

Gimme Care questions
- Is Gimme Care legit?
- Gimme Care is run by Start Gimme LLC. It connects you with licensed U.S. providers, who prescribe only when they judge it appropriate, and licensed U.S. compounding pharmacies fill the orders. The tirzepatide is compounded, which means it isn't FDA-approved, and Gimme's own pages say so.
- How much does Gimme Care tirzepatide cost per month?
- $199 per shipment on the month-to-month plan, charged every 28 days. Over a calendar month that averages $216. It's the same at every dose and includes the consultation, supplies and shipping.
- Does Gimme Care take insurance?
- No. It's cash-pay only, doesn't bill commercial insurance, and doesn't work with Medicare or Medicaid.
- Can you cancel Gimme Care?
- Yes. Cancel or pause any time in the patient portal. An order that has already been dispensed or shipped can't be canceled, and medication can't be sent back.
- Does Gimme Care require a video visit?
- Not in most states. Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and West Virginia require a brief video or audio visit before treatment starts. Anywhere else you can still ask for one through the portal.
