Compounded tirzepatide
Zappy Health review
Zappy Health's pay-as-you-go tirzepatide plan is $349, billed monthly, and the price is the same at every dose. The $279 figure in its headline belongs to a 3-month starter pack for GLP-1 newcomers, paid up front and offered only in some states. There's no membership fee, and a monthly virtual visit comes with every plan.
Who it suits
Good fit if
- You want one price from the first dose to the last.
- You'd like a scheduled virtual visit each month rather than checking in only when something goes wrong.
- You're new to GLP-1s, live in a state that offers the starter pack and can pay three months at once.
Look elsewhere if
- You want to be free to stop at any point. Zappy's FAQ describes a two-month commitment once medication ships.
- A federal warning letter about marketing claims would put you off a seller.
What you get
Zappy lists four tirzepatide plans. Most Flexible is $349 a month, billed monthly, for all doses. Multi-month plans cost less per month but are paid in full, and every vial ships together. The first-time starter pack is $279 a month over three months and begins at 2.5 mg.
Every plan includes monthly virtual visits, an AI assistant and premium customer support. Delivery is free and discreet, and Zappy takes FSA and HSA cards. The tirzepatide page names the dispensing pharmacy as The Pharmacy Hub, a licensed 503A pharmacy. Zappy says its partner pharmacies run third-party potency, pH and sterility tests.
Zappy also prescribes brand-name Zepbound vials bought through Lilly Direct, so switching later doesn't mean changing sellers.
How it works
- Fill in the online medical intake about your health history, lifestyle and goals.
- A medical professional reviews it and decides whether tirzepatide is appropriate.
- If you're prescribed, the pharmacy ships your vial. Zappy's FAQ says to expect it within 5 to 7 business days after your visit.
- Monthly plans renew each month, with a virtual visit every month to review progress and dosing.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Zappy's Most Flexible plan charges $349 a month at every tirzepatide dose, from 2.5 mg up.
- The tirzepatide page names its dispensing pharmacy, The Pharmacy Hub, a licensed 503A.
- Every Zappy plan includes a monthly virtual visit with no separate membership fee.
Cons
- Zappy's FAQ says a binding two-month contract starts once your first medication ships.

Check before you pay
- Two-month commitment
- The pricing page says you can pause or cancel anytime, while the FAQ says shipment starts a binding two-month contract. Ask which applies before you pay.
- Refunds after the pharmacy step
- Cancel before the pharmacy processes your order for a full refund. Once it's in shipping, a restocking fee comes out, and after a tracking number is assigned there's no refund.

- In February 2026 the FDA issued a warning letter to Kare Solutions, LLC, which does business as Zappy, citing false and misleading claims and misbranding.

Zappy Health questions
- Is Zappy Health legit?
- Zappy Health is a telehealth company, not a pharmacy. Licensed providers prescribe, and licensed pharmacies prepare and dispense. Its compounded tirzepatide isn't FDA-approved, which Zappy says on the page. The FDA sent Kare Solutions, doing business as Zappy, a warning letter in February 2026 over false and misleading claims.
- How much is Zappy Health tirzepatide per month?
- $349 a month on the Most Flexible plan, billed monthly, at any dose. New GLP-1 users in some states can pay $279 a month for a 3-month starter pack, charged in one payment.
- Does Zappy Health take insurance?
- No. Compounded tirzepatide is cash-pay, and Zappy says you don't need insurance or a membership. FSA and HSA cards are accepted.
- Can you cancel Zappy Health?
- Send a written notice by email. You get a full refund if the pharmacy hasn't processed your order yet. After a tracking number exists, Zappy can pause future charges but won't refund the shipment.
