The short answer

AltRx is an established telehealth provider offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injections at promotional rates valid through September 5, 2026, with no separate membership fees and a stated cancel-anytime policy. During the promotional period, AltRx's month-to-month billing rate is $89 for semaglutide and $149 for tirzepatide—substantially lower than most competitors. However, AltRx has not published post-promotion standard rates, and individual reports on Trustpilot and Reddit allege unexpected annual prebilling despite selecting month-to-month options. If you're considering AltRx, confirm your selected billing interval at checkout, verify cancellation terms in writing, and check whether post-promotion pricing has been published if you plan to continue beyond September 5, 2026.

Cancellation terms and billing-practice reports

AltRx states a "cancel anytime" policy with no separate contract term disclosed in our captured sources. However, individual reports on Trustpilot and Reddit, captured September 4, 2026, allege that some customers were billed for a full annual subscription despite selecting a month-to-month option at signup. These are unverified individual reports; AltRx's stated terms permit cancellation anytime. If you choose AltRx, confirm your selected billing interval at checkout, save a screenshot or confirmation email, and verify the cancellation process in writing before your first charge.

Post-promotion pricing uncertainty

AltRx's promotional rates end September 5, 2026, but the company has not published standard ongoing rates as of our September 4, 2026 capture. If you enroll during the promotional period and plan to continue after September 5, 2026, ask AltRx for written confirmation of post-promotion pricing before you commit. Without that clarity, you cannot calculate your long-term cost or compare standard rates against other providers.

Service reliability and review record

AltRx maintains a Trustpilot profile, but overall star rating and review volume were not captured in our September 4, 2026 research pass. The individual reports alleging unexpected annual prebilling appeared on both Trustpilot and Reddit, captured September 4, 2026. These are anecdotes, not representative data, but they highlight the importance of reviewing your billing selection and saving confirmation documents at signup.

PlexusDx holds a 4.2-star rating on Trustpilot, with 76% of reviews at five stars and 81% at four stars or higher (captured September 4, 2026).
