PrescribedRx review

Each GLP-1 comes as one three-month plan and nothing shorter: semaglutide is $420 a quarter, about $140 a month, and tirzepatide $597, about $199. The price stays the same at every dose, needles and shipping are included, and you get the full amount back if a provider decides treatment isn't right for you. What you can't do is buy a single month to try it.

How we scored PrescribedRx

Each score comes out of PrescribedRx's published pricing, disclosures and oversight, and the six combine into the 56/100 Editors' Rating on our weighted six-factor framework. A commission never changes a provider's score.

Pricing transparency70/100 · Weak

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

Family-budget value84/100 · Solid

Fair value once you read past any teaser rate or plan structure.

Fits around motherhood46/100 · Weak

Little here is shaped around a mother's week or her life stage.

Ongoing support & titration32/100 · Weak

Support is thin once the prescription ships.

Clinical oversight & labs52/100 · Weak

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

Flexibility to pause or cancel28/100 · Weak

Leaving costs you — notice windows, minimum terms or fees you don't get back.

How we verified this review

Primary source
The company's own site

PrescribedRx, LLC sells each GLP-1 as one three-month plan and nothing shorter. Semaglutide is $420 every three months, about $140 a month; tirzepatide is $597, about $199 a month. Both renew at the same price unless you cancel before the renewal date, and you get the full amount back if a provider decides treatment isn't appropriate. The price does not change as your dose goes up, and needles, syringes, swabs and shipping are included. One wrinkle: a card on its semaglutide page describes the $597 tirzepatide plan as lasting 10 weeks, while the tirzepatide page itself says three months, so ask which before you pay. It no longer lists the states it serves, saying only that it isn't available everywhere and the eligibility check will tell you. It names its care team, including a chief medical officer and a medical director, but not the compounding pharmacy. It has no FDA warning letter on file.

GLP-1 telehealth is usually HSA- and FSA-eligible, so check your own plan. Everything above comes from PrescribedRx's public disclosures at last review and change often; confirm the current number on PrescribedRx's own site.

What we like

  • About $140 a month for semaglutide and $199 for tirzepatide, among the lowest figures on our list
  • The same price at every dose, with needles, syringes, alcohol swabs and shipping included
  • A full refund if a provider decides treatment isn't appropriate for you
  • Names its care team, including a chief medical officer and a medical director
  • No bloodwork unless your health history calls for it

The caveats

  • Neither GLP-1 can be bought month to month — each plan is billed every three months
  • Both need a lump sum up front — $420 or $597 — and renew at the same price unless you cancel before the renewal date
  • There is no way to try a single month and stop
  • No list of states — it says only that it isn't available everywhere and the eligibility check will tell you
  • One page describes the $597 tirzepatide plan as three months, another as every 10 weeks — ask which before you pay
  • No compounding pharmacy is named

Is PrescribedRx worth it?

PrescribedRx doesn't price as one simple monthly rate, which makes it harder to compare at a glance. Where it earns its score is value for a family budget. Where it loses ground is flexibility to pause or cancel.

PrescribedRx pricing

  • Compounded semaglutide — Three-month plan, $420 — no month-to-month option: $140/mo
  • Compounded tirzepatide — Three-month plan, $597 — no month-to-month option: $199/mo

The price is the same at every dose, so the bill doesn't grow as you step up.

What's included: the clinician consult, the medication, and shipping.

What PrescribedRx prescribes

PrescribedRx prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide. Tirzepatide often suits women whose weight is tied to insulin resistance — common after PCOS or gestational diabetes — so having both options on one account is useful. The medication is compounded by a licensed pharmacy rather than an FDA-approved brand pen — cheaper, but not reviewed by the FDA as a finished product.

Signing up with PrescribedRx

There's no published list of states, so confirm yours before you share any health details.

Alternatives to PrescribedRx

Other providers we've reviewed that offer semaglutide and tirzepatide:

  • Trellis Vitality — $150/mo, semaglutide and tirzepatide, same price at every dose
  • AHBARx — $249/mo, semaglutide and tirzepatide
  • Aurelius Health Group — no comparable monthly rate confirmed, tirzepatide, same price at every dose

Is PrescribedRx right for you?

A good fit if…

  • You may want to switch between semaglutide and tirzepatide later on.

Look elsewhere if…

  • You specifically want an FDA-approved brand pen with its own pregnancy and breastfeeding labeling.
  • You need a no-strings plan; the cancellation fine print here is worth reading before you sign up.
  • You need to know up front whether it treats patients in your state — it doesn't publish a state list.
  • You're planning another baby and want that timing discussed before you start — compare CoreAge Rx, a featured partner.

Can you trust it?

With any compounded GLP-1, ask which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription and what exactly is in the vial. How we score clinical oversight is set out in our methodology.

Weight-loss treatment is not recommended during pregnancy. If you are breastfeeding or planning pregnancy, discuss the exact medicine, formulation and timing with your own clinician; limited milk-transfer data do not establish infant safety.

What to ask PrescribedRx first

  • What will I pay each month, and does that change as the dose goes up?
  • Do you treat patients in my state?
  • How do I cancel, and is there a minimum term?
  • If I get pregnant or start trying, how do I pause, and will I be charged meanwhile?

Should you sign up?

Without one all-in monthly price, PrescribedRx is hard to judge on cost. Its strongest point with us is value for a family budget; get a quote before you weigh it against the rest. For a second option, see our review of CoreAge Rx, a featured partner.

The bottom line for mothers

Best for: A mother who can pay three months at once and wants one price that doesn't climb as her dose does.

  • 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.

    Visit CoreAge Rx
  • A flat, all-dose compounded price with an oral option and a genuinely thorough intake — undercut by a headline that isn't the real month-to-month number and terms that lock you in hard once the box ships.

    Visit Oak
  • Semaglutide and tirzepatide sold as 10-week protocols — $299 and $549, about $130 and $238 a month — from a broader peptide platform where a named physician personally reviews every intake, though the advertised per-month figures are lower than the protocol totals work out to.

PrescribedRx, answered

How much does PrescribedRx cost?
PrescribedRx has no verified standard ongoing monthly cash price in our current records. Advertised offers may depend on the treatment, plan commitment, insurance or intake. Get a written all-in quote and confirm the billing interval and renewal rate before committing.
Is PrescribedRx safe to use while breastfeeding?
Discuss breastfeeding with your prescriber before starting treatment through PrescribedRx. Advice depends on the exact medicine and formulation, your treatment needs and your infant's circumstances; limited milk data do not establish infant safety. Oral and injectable products can have different labeling, and a compounded preparation needs its own assessment. Tell the clinician if you are pregnant or planning pregnancy so treatment and any stopping interval can be planned individually.
Does PrescribedRx offer both semaglutide and tirzepatide?
PrescribedRx discloses both semaglutide and tirzepatide options. Confirm the specific product, formulation, current availability in your state and eligibility with the provider; a listed menu does not mean either medicine is appropriate for you.
Where does PrescribedRx rank for mothers?
PrescribedRx takes 56/100 in our Editors' Rating, placing it #163. Six factors chosen for mothers feed that number. CoreAge Rx, a featured partner, is worth a side-by-side look.

Pricing, states and verification reflect PrescribedRx's public disclosures at last review; the Editors' Rating is our editorial judgment per the published methodology. This is background reading, not medical advice — GLP-1 medications are not established as safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding. See our medical disclaimer and how we're funded.
