Answer a few questions about your symptoms, goals, and health history. No appointment, no waiting room.
Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide, plus brand-name Wegovy® and Zepbound®, prescribed online by licensed U.S. providers. Begin with a Starter Bundle to ramp up gradually or continue at your current dose. Every plan includes a provider visit, follow-ups, an injection kit, and free refrigerated shipping — no insurance, membership, or auto-renewals.
The science
GLP-1 medications mimic a hormone your gut releases after a meal. They slow how quickly your stomach empties, tell your brain you're full sooner, steady blood sugar, and quiet the constant background appetite many people describe as "food noise." The result is eating less without white-knuckling it, which is why GLP-1 medications are prescribed for weight management alongside changes in eating and activity.
Compounded semaglutide is a once-weekly GLP-1 injection, prepared for your prescription by a licensed U.S. compounding pharmacy. Compounded tirzepatide is a once-weekly injection that acts on the GLP-1 receptor and a second gut-hormone receptor, GIP. Providers often start with compounded semaglutide and consider compounded tirzepatide for patients who plateau or who want the dual-receptor option; it costs more per month. Your provider recommends one based on your goals, history, and budget.
Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide are supplied as a multi-dose vial, so your provider can set and adjust your dose in smaller steps than a fixed-dose pen allows, and can include optional additives (vitamin B12, B6, or glycine) or none at all. They are not FDA-approved. Wegovy® and Zepbound® are the FDA-approved brand-name products, supplied by their manufacturers as fixed-dose single-use pens; GobyMeds prescribes them at a transparent cash price for people who prefer or need the approved product.
Every GobyMeds plan starts at a low dose and steps up over the first weeks on a schedule your provider sets, which gives your body time to adjust. The 3-month Starter Bundles are built around that ramp, and your provider will work with you to adjust your medication for your goals.
Is this for you?
Or 27 or higher with a weight-related condition, such as high blood pressure, prediabetes, high cholesterol, or sleep apnea, who are ready to pair medication with changes in eating and activity.
If diet and exercise stopped moving the scale, or weight has crept back, a GLP-1 addresses the appetite and metabolic signals willpower can't.
Weight that arrived with PCOS, perimenopause, or after pregnancy is metabolic and hormonal as much as anything else, and GLP-1 medication addresses the appetite and blood-sugar signals behind it. Your provider reviews your history and any other medication first. GLP-1s are not prescribed during pregnancy, while trying to conceive, or while breastfeeding.
We offer Wegovy® and Zepbound® at a transparent cash price when the FDA-approved pen is the right fit.
GLP-1s are not prescribed during pregnancy or breastfeeding, to anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer or MEN 2, or without a provider reviewing your history first. Your provider screens for pancreatitis, gallbladder disease, and other medications that affect blood sugar.

A typical path, not a promise. Your provider sets your dose and pace, and adjusts them at every follow-up.
Weeks 1–4. You start on the lowest dose. Your appetite drops within the first injections. Mild nausea, constipation, or fatigue is common and usually fades as your body adjusts. Eat smaller meals, prioritize protein and water.
Months 2–3. Your provider increases the dose on schedule. Many people see steady weekly progress by now and notice that "food noise" is quieter. If you've experienced any side effects, these typically ease as the dose stabilizes.
Months 4–6. You continue to lose weight as you reach your maintenance dose. Your provider adjusts your dosage if your progress stalls or your side effects persist. Hair shedding can appear with rapid loss, and we offer hair loss treatments that are designed to be taken alongside a GLP-1.
Ongoing. Weight returns for most people who stop abruptly, so talk to your provider about maintenance dosing, spacing injections, or a lower dose before you stop. Plans never auto-renew; you reorder when you're ready.
Compounded semaglutide starts at $99 a month on the 3-month Starter Bundle ($299 total). If you're already on a dose, the 2-month bundle is $299 at any dose, and 3-month bundles are priced by the dose you reach: $299 at the maintenance dose, $399 up to 1.5 mg, $499 at 1.9–2.3 mg; single months are $169 at any dose. Compounded tirzepatide starts at $133 a month ($399 Starter Bundle), with single months at $299 and 3-month bundles at $499–$599 by dose. Wegovy® is $1,695, and Zepbound® $1,399 per month at a transparent cash price.
Every plan includes the online visit, provider follow-ups, an injection kit (syringes and alcohol swabs), and free refrigerated shipping that leaves in as little as 2 days; most orders arrive within two to five business days. No insurance, no membership fees, no auto-renewal. If a provider decides treatment isn't appropriate, you're refunded in full.
Every plan also includes unlimited messaging with your care team in the patient portal, U.S.-based support around the clock, and provider follow-ups with dose adjustments.

The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, constipation, vomiting, and reduced appetite, usually mild and worst in the first weeks or after a dose increase. Less commonly, GLP-1s can cause gallbladder problems, pancreatitis, dehydration-related kidney issues, or low blood sugar when combined with other diabetes medication. Compounded semaglutide, compounded tirzepatide, Wegovy®, and Zepbound® all carry a boxed warning for thyroid C-cell tumors seen in rodents; they are not prescribed to anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2. Do not use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide are prepared by licensed U.S. compounding pharmacies for an individual prescription. They are not FDA-approved, have not been reviewed by FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality, and are not Wegovy®, Ozempic®, Zepbound®, or Mounjaro®, or generic versions of them.

Compounded semaglutide activates one gut-hormone receptor (GLP-1). Compounded tirzepatide activates two (GLP-1 and GIP), which is why providers often consider it for patients who plateau on compounded semaglutide or who want the dual-receptor option. Both are once-weekly injections with a similar side-effect profile, and neither is FDA-approved.
Compounded tirzepatide costs more per month. Many patients start with compounded semaglutide and switch if they plateau; your provider can recommend either based on your history and goals.
Your plan price covers the provider visit and follow-ups, the full supply of compounded medication for the plan you choose, an injection kit with syringes and alcohol swabs, and refrigerated shipping to your door. It also includes unlimited messaging with your care team in the patient portal, U.S.-based support around the clock, and provider follow-ups with dose adjustments. There is no membership fee, no insurance billing, and no auto-renewal: you reorder when you're ready.
A licensed U.S. provider reviews most visits within one business day. Once approved, your medication ships cold-packed from a licensed U.S. pharmacy and typically arrives within two to five business days, in as little as two days for many addresses. Orders approved late in the week may ship the following Monday so the medication is never left in a warehouse over the weekend. Your patient portal shows tracking as soon as it ships.
No. Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide are prepared by licensed pharmacies for an individual patient's prescription and are permitted under federal law, but they are not FDA-approved and have not been reviewed by the FDA for safety, effectiveness, or manufacturing quality. They are not Wegovy®, Ozempic®, Zepbound®, or Mounjaro®, or generic versions of them. GobyMeds works only with U.S.-licensed pharmacies and is LegitScript certified. If you prefer the brand-name product, we also offer Wegovy® and Zepbound®.
Nausea, diarrhea, constipation, vomiting, indigestion, stomach pain, reduced appetite, and fatigue are the most common, and they usually ease within a few weeks of each dose increase. Eating smaller meals, avoiding greasy food, and staying hydrated help. Contact your provider about severe or persistent stomach pain, signs of dehydration, or any mental-health changes. Full details are on our safety information page.
Results vary from person to person and depend on your starting weight, your dose, how consistently you take the medication, and the eating and activity changes you make alongside it. Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide have not been studied in clinical trials, so GobyMeds does not quote expected weight-loss figures for them.
If your provider prescribes Wegovy® or Zepbound®, the FDA-approved prescribing information for each describes the results seen in its clinical trials. Your provider reviews your progress at every follow-up and will work with you to adjust your medication for your goals.
Some pharmacies compound GLP-1 medication together with vitamin B12, vitamin B6, or the amino acid glycine, which some patients find helps with energy and nausea. If you'd rather have the single-ingredient formulation, choose a plan marked additive-free or tell your provider during your visit; the formulation is confirmed by your provider and the dispensing pharmacy.
Yes. Message your care team at any time. Your provider can slow your titration, hold a dose if side effects are bothersome, or increase it when you're ready. Because plans are one-time purchases rather than subscriptions, you can also move between plan lengths and dose tiers on your next order.
Brand-name pens are manufactured by the original pharmaceutical company, FDA-approved, and sold at the manufacturer's list price; GobyMeds adds no markup beyond the pharmacy's cost and the included provider visit. Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide are prepared by licensed pharmacies for individual prescriptions and cost considerably less, but they are not FDA-approved. Your provider can discuss which option fits your situation.
If a GobyMeds provider decides a prescription isn't appropriate for you, you receive a 100% refund of the medication price (lab fees, where they apply, are not refunded). Once your order has been sent to our medical partners or to the pharmacy for fulfillment we will do our best to accommodate changes or cancellations, but we can't guarantee them, and in some cases an adjustment or cancellation carries a $50 medical consultation fee.
Because of regulations covering prescription medication, we are unable to accept returned medication for a refund.
No insurance is needed and GobyMeds does not bill insurance. The price you see is the price you pay, with provider consultation and shipping included and no membership fee.
HSA and FSA cards are accepted at checkout, and we can provide a letter of medical necessity if your plan administrator asks for one.
You answer a short health questionnaire and upload a photo ID. A licensed U.S. provider reviews your history, usually within one business day, confirms the treatment is appropriate, and writes the prescription. There is no video call to schedule unless your provider or your state requires one, and unlimited follow-up messaging with your care team in the patient portal is included with every plan.
If you're not a candidate, you'll be told why and refunded in full.
