Pricing in words

Remedy Meds charges $399 per month on a month-to-month plan for compounded tirzepatide (injection). The first 1 month is an introductory $279 per month before the recurring price applies. That price includes the medication, clinical care and shipping; there is no separate membership fee. On our all-in basis, the lowest true monthly cost is $399 and the lowest 12-month total is $4,668 (month-to-month plan). Prices last checked September 4, 2026; status: verified.

Hims offers compounded semaglutide, but we have not yet verified its current price directly, so it is listed without a ranked price. Verification status: unverified.

What to weigh against each

Hims: Lowest advertised rate typically requires paying 12 months up front. Did not offer compounded tirzepatide as of our last check. Its 2025 brand-name Wegovy partnership with Novo Nordisk ended within months. $149 monthly membership excludes medication; the all-in cost depends on which product is prescribed and at what price.

Remedy Meds: Introductory prices typically step up after the first month; the recurring rate is what we rank. Pharmacy and coverage pending verification.

How to read this comparison

Both providers were scored with the same rubric and the same cost model. Rankings never use the advertised monthly price on its own, because a low first-month number can hide a membership fee or a dose-based increase. Where a provider's price has not been directly checked against its own site, we say so and do not rank it on cost. Compounded tirzepatide and semaglutide are not FDA-approved; the only FDA-approved products are Zepbound, Mounjaro, Wegovy, Ozempic and Rybelsus. See the methodology and important safety information.
