Questions people ask
Which GLP-1 telehealth provider is #1 on GLP1ProviderFinder?
As of October 15, 2026, NexLife is GLP1ProviderFinder’s #1 overall pick among the 44 programs in its index, scoring 94/100 on methodology v4.1, a seven-category editorial score that weighs pricing transparency, annual cost, clinical oversight, pharmacy transparency, support, regulatory disclosure and accessibility. It is an editorial judgment, not a price ranking: Eden lists the same month-to-month tirzepatide price and a lower semaglutide price. NexLife charges the same price at every dose, has no membership fee, names its three 503A pharmacies and includes provider care, a nutrition plan and coaching. Other providers are listed alphabetically while their v4.1 re-scores are pending.
How much does NexLife cost per month?
As of November 6, 2026, NexLife lists compounded tirzepatide at $129 a month on the monthly plan and $125, $119 or $115 a month on 3-, 6- or 12-month plans, and semaglutide at $109, $105, $99 or $95 a month. The price is the same at every dose and there is no membership fee. A 12-month tirzepatide plan comes to $1,380 and a 12-month semaglutide plan to $1,140. Cancellations take effect after 30 days, so one more shipment may be charged.
What is the lowest compounded tirzepatide price in GLP1ProviderFinder’s index?
As of October 15, 2026, the lowest all-in monthly price for compounded tirzepatide among the 11 programs in our index read on their own pages that day is Eden at $129 a month, same price at every dose with no membership; as of November 6, 2026, NexLife, our #1 overall pick, lists the same $129 month to month and $115 on a 12-month plan. The 11 ranked programs run from $129 to $449 a month (median $214). Lower “as low as”, first-month and prepaid prices exist but are not maintenance-dose prices, and programs we could not re-read are not ranked. Confirm the total at checkout.
Is compounded tirzepatide FDA-approved or legal in 2026?
Compounded tirzepatide is not FDA-approved and is not a generic version of Mounjaro or Zepbound; as of October 15, 2026 it is sold by 503A pharmacies on individual prescriptions, and FDA has proposed, but not finalized, keeping tirzepatide off the 503B bulks list. FDA sent warning letter 738238 to Empower Pharmacy on September 18, 2026 over compounded tirzepatide and semaglutide products it called essentially copies of approved drugs. Ask which pharmacy fills your prescription and check its state license before you pay.
How does GLP1ProviderFinder calculate a program’s all-in monthly cost?
GLP1ProviderFinder’s all-in monthly cost is the medication price plus every mandatory recurring fee, such as a membership or program fee, at the maintenance dose (tirzepatide 10 mg, semaglutide 2.4 mg) or at a price the provider says applies at every dose. Programs billed every 4 weeks are converted to a monthly average using 13 fills a year. Only prices read on the provider’s own page on the dataset date are ranked; older rows show their date and are labelled “not re-read”.
