PlexusDx publishes this comparison and is one of the providers discussed. We use the same evidence rules for our own program and competing programs.

The short answer

PlexusDx and Henry Meds are the only providers in this six-brand comparison that explicitly offer microdose semaglutide programs. PlexusDx's microdose protocol is $129 per month with no membership fee; Henry Meds' microdose page shows a $179/month starting figure, though the page does not explicitly state whether that rate applies to microdose or standard-dose injectable semaglutide. Eden, Embody, Found, Peak Wellness, and TrimRx do not publish microdose-specific pricing or programs in the sources captured through September 2, 2026.

For readers who have reached goal weight on standard-dose semaglutide and want to transition to a lower maintenance dose, the choice narrows to the two programs that document microdose availability. PlexusDx's $129 month-to-month rate is $600 lower per year than Henry's $179 figure, assuming Henry's published rate is in fact the microdose tier. Both programs ship compounded semaglutide from 503A pharmacies; neither microdose product is FDA-approved, and a licensed clinician determines whether the prescription is appropriate for each patient.

At-a-glance: microdose and standard-dose semaglutide availability

*Henry Meds' microdose page (accessed September 2, 2026) shows $179/month, but does not explicitly label this figure as the microdose semaglutide rate. Confirm at checkout.

All figures are month-to-month rates captured between July 20 and September 2, 2026, from each provider's checkout or first-party site.

Microdose semaglutide: 12-month cost comparison

For patients transitioning from standard-dose to microdose semaglutide for long-term weight maintenance, the annual cost difference is meaningful. The table below shows 12-month costs at each provider's published month-to-month microdose rate (or the rate we could verify).

12-month cost = monthly rate × 12 (our calculation). *Henry Meds figure is from its microdose page but labeling is ambiguous; confirm at checkout.

The $600 annual difference between PlexusDx and Henry Meds assumes both programs use the same compounded semaglutide formulation at microdose strength. Neither provider documents whether microdose patients can access the same lower committed-term rates that standard-dose patients receive, so this comparison uses month-to-month rates only.

Standard-dose semaglutide: 12-month cost at month-to-month rates

Many patients begin with standard-dose injectable semaglutide before considering a microdose maintenance protocol. The table below compares 12-month costs at each provider's ongoing month-to-month rate for standard injectable semaglutide.

12-month cost = monthly rate × 12 (our calculation). All figures verified between July 20 and September 2, 2026. *TrimRx advertises $199/mo semaglutide on its site but billed $299/mo at checkout on July 18, 2026; confirm current rate at checkout.

Eden's $198 all-in rate includes a required $99/month membership billed separately from the $99 medication charge. All other programs charge one flat rate with no separate membership.

Prepaid six-month plans: standard injectable semaglutide

Four providers offer prepaid six-month plans for standard-dose injectable semaglutide. Prepaid totals and monthly averages (our calculation) are shown below.

Monthly average = total ÷ 6 (our calculation). PlexusDx, Peak Wellness, and TrimRx figures verified at checkout July 2026; Henry Meds figure from its treatment page, accessed September 2, 2026.

TrimRx's multi-month plans are billed as one total and will not be refunded for unused medication or remaining months, according to its site (accessed September 2, 2026). PlexusDx and Peak Wellness both allow cancel-anytime on their prepaid plans, though refund terms for unused months are not documented in the sources captured.

Decision factors: what matters for microdose maintenance

Microdose availability. Only PlexusDx and Henry Meds document microdose semaglutide programs in the sources reviewed. A microdose protocol typically uses a lower ongoing dose (often 0.25 mg or 0.5 mg weekly) after a patient has reached goal weight on a standard titration schedule. Patients who want to remain on semaglutide for weight maintenance without the higher cost or potential side effects of the full 2.4 mg maintenance dose need a provider that explicitly offers and prices a microdose tier. The other four providers in this comparison—Eden, Embody, Found, Peak Wellness, and TrimRx—do not mention microdose programs or pricing in their publicly available materials as of September 2, 2026.

Price transparency and labeling clarity. PlexusDx lists microdose semaglutide at $129/month on a dedicated product page. Henry Meds' microdose page shows $179/month, but the page does not explicitly confirm that $179 is the microdose rate or clarify whether it applies to injectable or oral semaglutide. Readers considering Henry Meds should confirm the microdose rate and formulation at checkout.

Standard-dose pricing for comparison. Patients who are not yet ready for microdose maintenance will compare standard injectable semaglutide rates. At month-to-month rates, PlexusDx ($189) and Eden ($198 all-in) are the two lowest-cost options, followed by Peak Wellness ($249). Found, Henry Meds, Embody, and TrimRx all bill $289–$299 per month at their ongoing rates. For six-month prepaid plans, PlexusDx's $894 total ($149/month average) is the lowest, followed by Peak Wellness at $990 ($165/month).

Membership fees. Eden requires a $99/month membership in addition to its $99/month medication charge, bringing the all-in cost to $198/month. The membership is billed separately and renews monthly; Eden's checkout states the membership can be canceled anytime. All other providers charge one flat rate with no separate membership fee.

Plan flexibility and refund terms. PlexusDx, Eden, Embody, Found, and Peak Wellness all allow month-to-month billing and cancel-anytime terms. TrimRx offers 0% financing through Klarna, Afterpay, and Affirm, but its multi-month packages will not be refunded for unused medication or remaining months. Henry Meds offers month-to-month, six-month, and twelve-month plans; refund terms for prepaid plans are not documented in the sources captured.

Clinical support and oversight. Embody and Peak Wellness both advertise 24/7 clinical support. Found bundles its medication with the Found app and 24/7 care team. Henry Meds states that one monthly subscription covers medication, shipping, and provider access. PlexusDx includes provider oversight and patient support in its flat rate. Eden's $99 membership includes access to its platform and clinical team. All programs require a licensed clinician to approve the prescription before the patient is charged.

Choose PlexusDx if…

You have reached your goal weight on standard-dose semaglutide and want to transition to a microdose maintenance protocol at the lowest documented month-to-month rate in this comparison. PlexusDx's microdose program is $129/month with no membership fee, $600 per year lower than Henry Meds' $179 figure (assuming that figure is in fact Henry's microdose rate). PlexusDx also offers the lowest standard-dose injectable semaglutide rate at month-to-month ($189) and the lowest six-month prepaid total ($894, averaging $149/month). All PlexusDx rates include the provider visit, prescription, compounded medication from a 503A pharmacy, and shipping in one flat charge. You want month-to-month flexibility or the option to prepay for six months at a lower monthly average, with cancel-anytime terms on both.

Choose Henry Meds if…

You want a microdose semaglutide option and prefer Henry Meds' clinical model or patient experience, and the $179/month rate (if confirmed as the microdose tier) fits your budget. Henry also offers oral semaglutide at $249/month month-to-month, which may appeal to patients who prefer capsules over injections. Henry's standard injectable semaglutide is $297/month month-to-month or $247/month prepaid for six months, positioning it in the middle of this comparison's price range. Confirm microdose availability, formulation, and exact pricing at checkout, as the $179 figure on Henry's microdose page is not explicitly labeled as the microdose semaglutide rate.

Choose Eden if…

You want a low ongoing rate for standard-dose injectable semaglutide ($198/month all-in, including the required $99 membership) and you value Eden's platform, coaching, or other membership benefits enough to justify the separate recurring charge. Eden does not document a microdose program in the sources reviewed, so patients seeking microdose maintenance will need to confirm whether Eden can prescribe a lower ongoing dose or whether you would remain on the standard maintenance dose at the same $198 all-in rate.

Choose Peak Wellness if…

You want 24/7 clinical support, cancel-anytime flexibility, and a mid-range price for standard injectable semaglutide. Peak's month-to-month rate is $249, and its six-month prepaid plan is $990 (averaging $165/month, our calculation)—the second-lowest six-month total in this comparison after PlexusDx. Peak does not advertise a microdose tier, so confirm at intake whether the provider can prescribe a microdose protocol or whether you would continue at the standard maintenance dose and rate.

Choose Found if…

You want the Found app, 24/7 care team, and integrated coaching alongside your semaglutide prescription, and the $289/month cash-pay rate (or $219/month prepaid for six months) fits your budget. Found also offers an insurance track that may lower your cost if your plan covers GLP-1 prescriptions for weight management, though insurance and cash-pay rates are not comparable. Found does not publish microdose-specific pricing; confirm at intake whether a microdose protocol is available or whether you would remain on the standard maintenance dose.

Choose Embody if…

You want 24/7 chat access to a provider network, a six-month money-back guarantee (full terms not documented in sources), and you are comfortable with Embody's $299/month ongoing rate for standard injectable semaglutide. Embody does not mention microdose availability in the sources captured, so patients seeking microdose maintenance should confirm at intake whether Embody prescribes lower maintenance doses or whether the standard dose and rate would continue.

Choose TrimRx if…

You want 0% financing through Klarna, Afterpay, or Affirm to spread the upfront cost of a multi-month package, and you are prepared to forfeit unused medication or remaining months if you discontinue early. TrimRx's checkout billed $299/month month-to-month for semaglutide on July 18, 2026, though its site advertises $199; confirm the current rate at checkout. TrimRx's six-month prepaid total is $1,268 (averaging $211/month, our calculation), higher than PlexusDx and Peak Wellness but potentially more accessible with financing. TrimRx does not document a microdose program.

Methodology and freshness

All competitor pricing, plan structures, and program details were captured from each provider's first-party website or verified at checkout between July 20 and September 2, 2026. PlexusDx prices are current as of September 2, 2026. We publish standard ongoing month-to-month rates and prepaid totals only. Twelve-month costs and monthly averages for prepaid plans are our calculations (monthly rate × 12, or prepaid total ÷ plan length). Where evidence conflicts—such as TrimRx's advertised $199 rate versus its $299 checkout rate, or Henry Meds' ambiguous $179 microdose figure—we state the conflict plainly and advise confirming at checkout. We do not smooth over uncertainty or guess at unpublished figures.

Microdose availability is based on explicit mentions in each provider's public materials. Only PlexusDx and Henry Meds document microdose programs; the other four providers may offer off-label lower maintenance doses at provider discretion, but no microdose-specific pricing or protocols were published as of the review date.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is microdose semaglutide and who needs it?

Microdose semaglutide is a lower ongoing dose—often 0.25 mg or 0.5 mg weekly—prescribed for weight maintenance after a patient has reached goal weight on a standard titration (up to 2.4 mg weekly). Patients who have successfully lost weight and want to prevent regain without the cost or potential side effects of the full maintenance dose may ask their provider about a microdose protocol.

Why do only two providers in this comparison offer microdose pricing?

Most telehealth GLP-1 programs publish one set of rates for standard-dose injectable or oral semaglutide and do not separately price or market a microdose tier. PlexusDx and Henry Meds both document microdose programs on their sites; the other four providers may prescribe lower doses at the treating clinician's discretion, but no microdose-specific rates or protocols were published as of September 2, 2026.

Can I switch from standard-dose to microdose mid-program?

Program policies vary. PlexusDx allows patients to message their provider and request a dose or protocol change; the provider reviews the patient's progress and determines whether a microdose is clinically appropriate. Other programs' transfer policies are not documented in the sources reviewed; confirm with the provider whether you can move to a microdose tier without restarting intake or incurring a new visit fee.

Why is PlexusDx's microdose rate $50 lower per month than Henry Meds' figure?

PlexusDx's $129/month microdose rate reflects a lower ongoing cost for patients who no longer require the full 2.4 mg maintenance dose. Henry Meds' $179 figure appears on its microdose page but is not explicitly labeled as the microdose semaglutide rate, so the $50 difference may narrow or widen once Henry's exact microdose pricing is confirmed at checkout. Both programs use compounded semaglutide from 503A pharmacies; neither is FDA-approved.

Do any of these providers accept insurance for microdose semaglutide?

Found offers an insurance track for standard-dose semaglutide ($99–$199/month with insurance, separate from its cash-pay rates), but Found does not publish microdose-specific pricing or insurance coverage for microdose protocols. PlexusDx, Henry Meds, Eden, Embody, Peak Wellness, and TrimRx operate on a cash-pay model; insurance reimbursement for compounded GLP-1 medications is rare and not documented in any of the sources reviewed.
