MEDGm review

A rare combination on our list: four dispensing pharmacies named outright, a named prescribing partner in OpenLoop, and genuine brand-name access to Wegovy, Zepbound and Ozempic beside a compounded line. Month to month, compounded semaglutide is $299 as a weekly injection or $369 as a daily tablet, and tirzepatide $399 as an injection, with a cheaper first month and lower rates if you prepay up to a year. The gaps are on the brand side and in the fine print. The three brand products are quoted as a membership plus a medication cost that is never published, and the membership itself appears at two different figures on one page, $99 against Zepbound and Wegovy and $171 against Ozempic. The terms also provide that a provider may switch your molecule and that continuing to stay enrolled is your consent, with the charges carrying on. It says plainly that people in its advertising may be actors or artificial intelligence.

How we scored MEDGm

Each score comes out of MEDGm's published pricing, disclosures and oversight, and the six combine into the 51/100 Editors' Rating on our weighted six-factor framework. A commission never changes a provider's score.

Family-budget value52/100 · Weak

Cost is unpredictable, premium, or hides behind a plan commitment.

Clinical oversight & labs68/100 · Weak

Oversight and lab support fall short of the best we track — the review below says exactly where.

Pricing transparency48/100 · Weak

The headline rate obscures a plan requirement or a hidden step-up.

How we verified this review

Primary source
MEDGm's own site

Four pharmacies named outright, OpenLoop named as the prescriber, and real brand access to Wegovy, Zepbound and Ozempic beside a compounded line at $299 (semaglutide) or $399 (tirzepatide) a month, month to month. The care is needed in the fine print. Brand products are quoted as a membership plus a medication cost the site never publishes, the membership shows up at two different figures on one page, and the terms let a provider switch your molecule with continued enrollment counted as consent.

What we like

  • Names four dispensing pharmacies outright, with links and phone numbers
  • Names OpenLoop as the prescribing partner rather than leaving the clinical relationship vague
  • Real brand access — Wegovy, Zepbound and Ozempic — beside the compounded line
  • Each product has its own page with a full plan table, from month to month to a year up front
  • Says plainly that people in its advertising may be actors or artificial intelligence

The caveats

  • The 'starting at $169' on the GLP-1 page is a 12-month prepaid rate; month to month is $299 for semaglutide and $399 for tirzepatide
  • The terms let a provider switch your molecule, with staying enrolled counted as your consent
  • Brand medications are priced as a membership plus a medication cost that is never published
  • The membership itself is quoted at two different figures on one page, $99 and $171
  • The terms say medication is included in the program cost while the brand cards price it separately
  • Nothing addresses pregnancy, breastfeeding or postpartum timing

MEDGm in short

The $179 you see first is an opening price; after that, MEDGm charges about $299/month. Its strongest marks from us are for clinical oversight; its weakest are for fit around family life.

It offers brand-name pens as well as compounded medication, so you can choose between the two on one account.

What MEDGm actually costs

  • Compounded semaglutide — Weekly injection, month to month: $179 to start, then $299/mo
  • Compounded tirzepatide — Weekly injection, month to month: $279 to start, then $399/mo
  • Oral semaglutide — Daily tablet, month to month: $249 to start, then $369/mo

Most providers we've reviewed charge around $196/month, so you're paying a premium here. A full year at the regular rate comes to roughly $3,588.

The price covers the clinician consult, the medication, and shipping.

The medications MEDGm prescribes

MEDGm prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide — the two GLP-1 medications with the strongest evidence. If insulin resistance is part of your story (PCOS, a history of gestational diabetes), tirzepatide is often the better fit, and you won't need a new provider to try it. Brand-name pens are available too, and their official labeling on pregnancy and breastfeeding is easier to discuss with an OB than a compounded vial.

There's also an oral or under-the-tongue option for mothers who'd rather skip injections. Keep expectations modest: these forms have far less research behind them than the weekly shot.

Signing up with MEDGm

MEDGm says it serves all 50 states, though availability can vary, so check yours early.

Similar providers

If you're weighing MEDGm, these are priced nearby:

  • MD Total Wellness — $299/mo, semaglutide and tirzepatide, same price at every dose
  • MEDVi — $299/mo, semaglutide and tirzepatide, same price at every dose, brand-name pens available
  • Found — $289/4 wks, semaglutide and tirzepatide, same price at every dose, brand-name pens available

Is MEDGm right for you?

A good fit if…

  • You'd like the option to move to tirzepatide (or back) without changing providers.

Look elsewhere if…

  • Budget is tight — it costs more than most of the providers we've reviewed.
  • You're breastfeeding or trying to conceive and want a prescriber to weigh in on timing — see CoreAge Rx, a featured partner.

Safety and oversight

With any compounded GLP-1, ask which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription and what exactly is in the vial. Our Editors' Rating methodology explains how we score oversight.

Tell your own clinician if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive before starting treatment. Using medication for weight loss is not recommended while pregnant. Breastfeeding decisions require the specific product’s labeling and an individual assessment, rather than a blanket rule across every GLP-1 formulation.

What to ask MEDGm first

  • What does the price become after the first month?
  • What happens to my plan if I become pregnant?

Should you sign up?

MEDGm costs more than most, so it has to earn the difference — its strongest card is clinical oversight. CoreAge Rx, a featured partner, is worth a side-by-side look before you decide.

The bottom line for mothers

Best for: Someone who wants a named pharmacy and a named prescriber behind the prescription, and who will confirm in writing which molecule she is getting and whether it can be changed.

  • CoreAge RxFeatured partner

    The one program on our list whose number still makes sense at the top of the dose. A flat, all-in monthly price on both molecules, no teaser rate to expire, and a cancel button you can actually find — the closest thing to a family-budget guarantee we've reviewed.

  • Luvo Health publishes a standing price for every program before asking you for anything, and sells almost everything: semaglutide as an injection at $209 or tablets at $259, tirzepatide at $249, a low-dose microdosing tier at $179, and real FDA-approved Ozempic and Zepbound at $1,299 and $1,399 for anyone who wants the on-label product — all per four weeks, with the first four weeks half price on the main programs. Its LegitScript certification is real — the seal ID returns a live image where an invented one errors — and it commits to not charging you if a clinician decides you aren't eligible. Two things hold it back. It never names the pharmacy that compounds any of this, which is a step behind the providers that do.

  • The highest-paying program on our list advertises a prepaid rate as if it were the price, promises a flat dose price its own help center contradicts, and bills every 28 days whether or not the medicine arrives. The blog on nursing is better than the company behind it.

MEDGm, answered

What does MEDGm's compounded GLP-1 cost?
Month to month, the semaglutide injection is $299, semaglutide tablets $369 and the tirzepatide injection $399. A $120-off welcome coupon lowers the first month to $179, $249 or $279. Prepaying lowers the monthly rate — down to $169, $239 and $269 a month on a 12-month plan paid up front, which is where the 'starting at' figures on its GLP-1 page come from.
Can they change my molecule?
Yes, and the terms are explicit about it. They state that a provider may decide a different formulation, dosage or product is clinically appropriate — including a different molecule, tirzepatide instead of semaglutide or the other way round — and that unless you cancel, staying enrolled is itself your consent to the change, with your subscription and membership charges continuing regardless. If you have a reason to want one molecule specifically, put it in writing.
What do the brand medications cost?
MEDGm does not publish that. Zepbound and the Wegovy pill or pen are listed as "$99 MEMBERSHIP + COST" and Ozempic as "$171 MEMBERSHIP + COST", with the medication cost left blank. Note also that those are two different membership figures on the same page. The compounded line is the only part of the menu you can price before applying.
Who compounds it and who prescribes?
Both are named, which is rare. The terms name four pharmacy partners with links and phone numbers — Red Rock Home Pharmacy, HealthWarehouse, Precision Meds and TriadRx — and state that medical treatment is provided by OpenLoop Health alongside the MEDGm affiliated practices. The company itself is MEDGm, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company registered in Dover.
Are the people in the ads real?
Not necessarily, and to its credit the site says so. Its own disclosure states that individuals appearing in advertisements may be actors or artificial intelligence representing licensed providers and are not medical professionals, and that site imagery may be created or enhanced with artificial intelligence tools. Read the testimonials and provider photos with that in mind.
