The arithmetic
Henry Meds does not publish a rankable maintenance-dose figure for tirzepatide, so no winner can honestly be declared — a start-only price tells you what month one costs, not what the program costs.

The arithmetic
On the figures our desk holds, Fridays's $175 a month undercuts Henry Meds's $297 by $122 a month at the 2.4 mg/wk maintenance basis — $1,464 across a year. Fridays's figure is provider-stated (captured 2026-08-05) and Henry Meds's is reported (captured 2026-08-11); a status below 'verified' means our independent checkout capture is still pending, so treat the gap as the best current evidence rather than settled fact.
Fridays's semaglutide ladder runs $175 a month billed monthly. Henry Meds's runs $297 a month billed monthly, $247 a month on a six-month plan, and $197 a month on a twelve-month plan. On the twelve-month basis Fridays's $2,100 beats Henry Meds's $2,364 by $264 — with the winner's figure resting on twelve months at the month-to-month rate with no commitment, a structural difference that matters if you might stop early.

What our desk is watching on each
Fridays: Provider-stated; checkout capture pending. June 2026 reporting adds two tiers around our $359 figure: a lower per-month rate on a 12-month plan and a microdose track around $198/month — the microdose tier is sub-maintenance by design and is not a comparison-basis price.
Henry Meds: Correction on record (2026-08-11): our earlier figures — $179 tirzepatide and $179 semaglutide — were the advertised headline, which independent reviews show applies to liraglutide or the twelve-month prepay, not the flagship products. Checkout-verified semaglutide injection is $297 month-to-month (Tailor Made Compounding named on the dispensed materials), and tirzepatide exists only as oral dissolving tablets capped at 6 mg daily, sold as a $1,047 three-month supply ($891 paid in full) with no month-to-month rate — a different product class from the 10 mg/week injections our rankings price, so Henry is recorded but unrankable on the tirzepatide basis. Structural notes: monthly billing against 10–11-week shipment batches; one source reports ~$100/tier escalation above 1 mg; state coverage sources conflict (every state vs. not available in nine — confirm at intake); 12,000+ Trustpilot reviews alongside an F BBB rating; no FDA warning letter for Henry or parent Adonis Health per an April 21, 2026 database check.
Questions people ask
Is Fridays or Henry Meds cheaper in 2026?
The tirzepatide and semaglutide verdict blocks above give the computed answer at the maintenance basis, with the verification status of each figure; the short version is that whichever program's all-in monthly number is lower on this page is cheaper on the evidence we hold today, and both rows carry capture dates so you can judge freshness.
What does Fridays vs Henry Meds miss that checkout will show?
Taxes, state availability, current promotions, and any dose surcharge introduced after our capture date. Screenshot the order summary before paying — that capture, not any comparison page, is your contract.
Why do you compare at the maintenance dose instead of the starting dose?
Because starter pricing lasts one or two months and maintenance pricing lasts the rest of the year; comparing starts against maintenances is the single most common way GLP-1 comparisons mislead.
What do Fridays and Henry Meds cost over a full year of semaglutide?
On the plans our database holds, a year of semaglutide runs $2,100 at Fridays and $2,364 at Henry Meds — computed from each program's best published twelve-month route, with promotional figures labeled in the sections above and every number carrying its capture date.
