Compounded tirzepatide

Rx.com review

Rx.com, the site behind a free prescription discount card, also runs a weight-loss program that sells compounded tirzepatide at $285 for a one-month supply. That figure holds from 2.5 mg to 15 mg. Longer plans cut the monthly rate, but each one is paid in a single lump sum.

Who it suits

Good fit if

  • You want the provider visit, check-ins, supplies and cold shipping folded into one number.
  • You'd rather confirm each refill yourself than be billed automatically.
  • You expect to climb to the higher doses and don't want the price to follow you up.

Look elsewhere if

  • You live in Alaska, the one state Rx.com's program doesn't serve.
  • You want the lowest monthly rate without paying for several months at once.

What you get

The plan picker offers tirzepatide in 1-, 3-, 6- and 12-month lengths. The 1-month plan is $285. The others show a lower monthly rate and are billed once for the whole term. Rx.com says only the plan length changes the price, never your dose.

The provider price index puts Rx.com’s recorded cost on the same calendar-month basis as other sellers. Check whether the quote covers your prescribed dose and includes the same services. Among the sellers we work with, the Gala review and the HumeCare+ review cover the sellers nearest in recorded price; we may earn a commission from those sellers.

The price covers the online visit and follow-ups, the medication at whatever strength is prescribed, syringes, alcohol pads, a dosing guide and cold-packed shipping. Messaging with the care team is unlimited. The checkout lists the doctor support and the overnight shipping as free lines under the medication.

Rx.com is a marketplace run by Rx Platform LLC. Prescribers come from MD Integrations, and the site's footer names Manifest Pharmacy in Greer, South Carolina, as the dispensing pharmacy.

How it works

  1. Answer a short quiz on height, weight, goals, state, date of birth and sex. You'll create an account before the plans appear.
  2. Choose tirzepatide and a plan length, then check out. Rx.com says checkout takes about two minutes.
  3. Complete the online visit: a confidential health questionnaire and a photo ID. Some states add a short video visit.
  4. A licensed provider in your state reviews it, usually within 24 hours. If you're approved, the pharmacy prepares the vial and ships it cold.
  5. Before each refill the care team checks in. Nothing ships or is charged until you confirm.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • One price from 2.5 mg to 15 mg: Rx.com says it never charges by strength.
  • Rx.com plans don't renew on their own, so no refill is charged until you confirm it with the care team.
  • If the MD Integrations provider declines you, Rx.com's refund policy returns your payment in full.

Cons

  • The lower monthly rates on the 3-, 6- and 12-month plans each require paying the full term up front.
  • Rx.com's program serves 49 states and leaves out Alaska.
  • Once a package is handed to USPS, FedEx or UPS, Rx.com's refund policy makes the sale final.

Check before you pay

Which page to trust on price
An older program page on the site still shows different first-month and later-month figures. The plan picker and the checkout total are what you actually pay.
Prepaid plans
A 6- or 12-month plan is billed once for the whole term. Since shipped medication can't be refunded, start with one month if you're unsure how you'll tolerate tirzepatide.
How to cancel
Pause or cancel from your account at any time with no fee. Do it before the next refill ships, because shipped medication is final.

Rx.com questions

Is Rx.com legit for tirzepatide?
Rx.com is a marketplace, not a pharmacy or a practice. Licensed providers from MD Integrations prescribe, Manifest Pharmacy dispenses, and the site shows a LegitScript certification seal. Its tirzepatide is compounded, so it isn't FDA-approved or the same as a brand-name drug, and Rx.com says so beside every plan.
How much is Rx.com tirzepatide per month?
$285 on the 1-month plan, at any dose. The visit, follow-ups, supplies and shipping are included. Longer plans lower the monthly rate but are billed in one payment. Rx.com's compounded semaglutide is $175 for one month.
Does Rx.com take insurance?
No. The weight-loss program is cash-pay. Rx.com accepts debit and credit cards and says many HSA and FSA cards work.
Can you cancel Rx.com?
Yes. Plans don't renew automatically, and you can pause or cancel from your account with no fee. Medication that has already shipped can't be returned.
