Compounded tirzepatide
TelePeptide review
TelePeptide's month-to-month tirzepatide plan costs $249, with the clinician, prescription, medication and shipping all included. Its pricing FAQ rules out dose-escalation surcharges, so the figure holds as your dose climbs. You're charged at intake, and the whole amount comes back automatically if no prescription is written.
Who it suits
Good fit if
- You want one tirzepatide price that doesn't rise with your dose.
- You'd like to start monthly and decide later whether a prepaid term is worth it.
- You want a fast answer, since clinician review usually happens within hours.
Look elsewhere if
- You live in Alaska or Mississippi, the two states TelePeptide doesn't serve.
- You want to know the prescribing medical group and the pharmacy before you pay.
What you get
The monthly plan carries no commitment and covers clinician evaluation and ongoing supervision, the prescription, the compounded tirzepatide and standard shipping. TelePeptide also sells 3-month, 6-month and annual prepaid terms at a lower monthly rate. Those are paid upfront, so the $249 month is the one to compare.
Tirzepatide comes as a weekly shot you give yourself. TelePeptide also offers a dissolvable tirzepatide tablet at the same monthly figure. Refrigerated shipments travel overnight or 2-day in cold-chain packaging, and some need an adult signature.
TelePeptide LLC, which also trades as TelePep, runs enrollment and billing from Fort Lee, New Jersey. A contracted medical group does the prescribing, and licensed 503A or 503B compounding pharmacies dispense. Neither is named publicly; TelePeptide shares the medical group's identity on request and your clinician's name in the patient portal.
How it works
- Pick the tirzepatide injection on the pricing chart and fill in the health intake. TelePeptide says it takes about 10 minutes.
- Your plan is charged at the payment step, before any clinician looks at it.
- A clinician licensed in your state reviews the chart, usually within 5 hours. Some states require a live audio or video visit first.
- If you're prescribed, the pharmacy processes the order in 1 to 3 business days and ships it cold. Refills follow each month, with check-ins through the portal.
Pros and cons
Pros
- TelePeptide's FAQ says a protocol change keeps your price the same, with "no dose-escalation surcharges."
- If no TelePeptide clinician prescribes, the full charge is refunded to your card automatically.
- A lost or damaged TelePeptide shipment is replaced by the pharmacy at no cost, including expedited shipping for a confirmed loss.
Cons
- Neither the medical group nor the pharmacy is named on TelePeptide's site, so you have to ask.
- Alaska and Mississippi residents can't complete the TelePeptide intake at all.
- Delivered tirzepatide can't be returned or refunded, which TelePeptide ties to pharmacy law.
Check before you pay
- Monthly versus prepaid
- The prepaid terms lower the monthly rate but take several months upfront. Canceling one early refunds only unshipped months, less an administrative fee, and only before the next fill.
- How to cancel
- Monthly plans renew on the date of your first charge. Cancel before the next billing date in the portal under Billing, or by email; TelePeptide confirms within 1 business day.
- The 7-day window
- You can cancel for a refund within 7 days as long as nothing has shipped yet.

TelePeptide questions
- Is TelePeptide legit?
- TelePeptide is a direct-pay telehealth company in Fort Lee, New Jersey, with a LegitScript certification seal on its site. It doesn't practice medicine itself; a contracted medical group prescribes. Its compounded tirzepatide is not Zepbound or Mounjaro and isn't FDA-approved, as the site states.
- How much is TelePeptide tirzepatide per month?
- $249 a month on monthly billing, renewing once a calendar month. That includes the clinician, the prescription, the medication and shipping. Prepaid terms cost less a month but are paid upfront. TelePeptide's compounded semaglutide injection is $199 a month.
- Does TelePeptide take insurance?
- No. Every program is direct-pay, and the consult fee is built into the program price rather than billed on its own.
- Can you cancel TelePeptide?
- Yes. Monthly billing cancels anytime before the next billing date, from the portal or by email. Already-delivered medication isn't refunded.
