How we scored Raeliva

Each score comes out of Raeliva's published pricing, disclosures and oversight, and the six combine into the 61/100 Editors' Rating on our weighted six-factor framework. A commission never changes a provider's score.

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

Clinical oversight & labs62/100 · Weak

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

How we verified this review

Primary source
The company's own site

$219 a month for semaglutide and $299 for tirzepatide month to month, or $150 and $242 if you prepay six months. The price holds at every dose. It names all six pharmacies that fill its prescriptions and the medical practice behind them, and serves all 50 states. Nothing on the site addresses pregnancy, breastfeeding or postpartum care.

What to expect when you sign up

We walked Raeliva's public signup — a first-hand look at the flow. We don't create accounts, enter medical data, or complete checkout, so this is what any visitor sees, not a patient outcome.

  1. 1Each product page lists the monthly price and the 3- and 6-month plan prices before any intake
  2. 2Complete an online health assessment; there is no charge if you are not eligible
  3. 3A clinician at Lion MDs, an independent medical practice licensed in all 50 states, reviews it and writes any prescription
  4. 4Medication ships in refrigerated packaging from one of six named pharmacies, typically within 3–5 days of approval

What we noticed

  • Names all six pharmacies that fill its prescriptions — Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts, Casa Pharma Rx, The Pharmacy Hub and Foothills — and prints the filling pharmacy on each shipment
  • States that the price stays the same at every dose; only switching plans changes it
  • Multi-month plans are billed upfront in one charge, and medication ships in two batches
  • No mention anywhere of pregnancy, breastfeeding, postpartum care, or PCOS

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

What we like

  • Names all six pharmacies that fill its prescriptions, and the filling pharmacy is printed on each shipment
  • One price at every dose, stated plainly — only switching plans changes it
  • Both molecules as weekly injections or oral dissolving tablets
  • Names its medical practice, Lion MDs, and the two physicians who lead it
  • No charge if you are not eligible; cancel anytime, no membership fee

The caveats

  • No mention anywhere of pregnancy, breastfeeding, postpartum care, or PCOS
  • The lowest rates ($150 and $242 a month) require paying six months upfront in one charge
  • Oral tablets cost more than injections — $260 and $359 a month month to month
  • No brand-name (FDA-approved) option

Raeliva for mothers: our verdict

Expect to pay around $219/month with Raeliva, close to the typical price. Where it earns its score is price transparency. Where it loses ground is flexibility to pause or cancel.

What Raeliva actually costs

  • Compounded semaglutide — Monthly plan: $219/mo
  • Compounded semaglutide — 3-month plan: $167/mo
  • Compounded semaglutide — 6-month plan: $150/mo
  • Oral semaglutide — Oral dissolving tablet, monthly: $260/mo
  • Compounded tirzepatide — Monthly plan: $299/mo
  • Compounded tirzepatide — 3-month plan: $267/mo

That's close to the roughly $196/month most providers we've reviewed charge. A full year at the regular rate comes to roughly $2,628. A prepaid plan lowers the monthly equivalent to about $150 — worth it only if you're sure you'll stay. It charges one price at every dose — stepping up doesn't change the bill.

The price covers the clinician consult and the medication.

The medications Raeliva prescribes

Raeliva prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide. Semaglutide is the drug in Wegovy and Ozempic; tirzepatide, the drug in Zepbound and Mounjaro, also acts on GIP and is often preferred where insulin resistance drives weight. 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.

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.

Getting started

Raeliva treats patients in all 50 states. You can see the price before you share any health history, so comparing it takes minutes, not an evening.

How Raeliva compares

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

  • Neuve MD — $219/mo, semaglutide and tirzepatide
  • AquaVita NextGen — $215/mo, semaglutide and tirzepatide, same price at every dose
  • Enhance MD — $249/mo, semaglutide and tirzepatide, same price at every dose

Where Raeliva fits — and where it doesn't — for mothers

Worth it if…

  • You want a clinician who actually reads your history, not a quiz that approves everyone.
  • You'd like the option to move to tirzepatide (or back) without changing providers.
  • You need a provider that works wherever you live.
  • You want to see the price before you share any health information.

Give it a miss if…

  • You'd only consider Wegovy or Zepbound themselves, not a compounded version.
  • You're breastfeeding or trying to conceive and want a prescriber to weigh in on timing — see CoreAge Rx, a featured partner.

Trust, safety, and oversight

Before you start, ask which licensed pharmacy compounds your medication and what the formulation contains. Our Editors' Rating methodology explains how we score oversight.

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.

Should you sign up?

Raeliva is a reasonable choice at a typical price. It's strongest on price transparency, so that's the reason to pick it. For a second option, see our review of CoreAge Rx, a featured partner.

The bottom line for mothers

Best for: Mothers who want to know exactly which pharmacy fills the prescription and want one price that won't climb as the dose does.

Alternatives to Raeliva

These are partners — we may be paid if you sign up through these links. The full list has every provider we cover, partner or not.

  • 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
  • Some of the lowest compounded pricing on our list, oral or injectable — filed, like Direct Meds, with a caveat we won't bury: a February 2026 FDA warning letter for misbranding. The prices are real; so is the regulatory flag.

    Visit Strut Health
  • A flat price at every dose — $299/mo semaglutide, $349/mo tirzepatide, currently cut to $79 and $129 by a time-limited sale — but real Trustpilot reviews say the signup price hasn't always held, and payment happens before the eligibility review.

Raeliva, answered

How much does Raeliva cost?
When we last checked, the lowest eligible ongoing compounded price at Raeliva worked out to an estimated $219 per calendar month. This is a monthly budget equivalent; the actual charge and billing interval may differ. Confirm today's all-in invoice amount, renewal dates and dose-specific rate before signing up.
Is Raeliva safe to use while breastfeeding?
Discuss breastfeeding with your prescriber before starting treatment through Raeliva. 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 Raeliva offer both semaglutide and tirzepatide?
Raeliva 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 Raeliva rank for mothers?
Raeliva takes 61/100 in our Editors' Rating, placing it #107. 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 Raeliva'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.
