The short answer

Lavender Sky Health advertises compounded GLP-1 medications starting at a per-month equivalent of $95 for semaglutide and $105 for tirzepatide (calculated from $190 and $210 prepaid for 2-month supplies, respectively, captured September 4, 2026). However, Lavender Sky documents that "price varies by pharmacy, dose, and supply length," and new consult fees ($65) plus follow-up fees ($40 every 6 months) are separate. This variable-rate, multi-pharmacy model differs sharply from flat-rate month-to-month alternatives.

PlexusDx charges $189 per month for semaglutide injection and $289 per month for tirzepatide injection on a month-to-month basis, with medication, provider access, and shipping included at every dose—no membership, no separate consult fees, and no price changes as your dose increases. Lavender Sky's advertised starting scenario may offer a lower initial monthly cost if you remain at the lowest dose tier and the same pharmacy, but the lack of transparent refill pricing and dose-dependent variability makes long-term cost projections uncertain. Seven other checkout-verified competitors—Eden, Embody, Found, Henry Meds, Peak Wellness, TrimRx, and Fridays—offer additional structures ranging from prepaid discounts to membership models, and this article compares all nine options with normalized 12-month cost calculations where evidence supports them.

At-a-glance comparison: Lavender Sky Health vs. PlexusDx vs. seven alternatives

Sources: Lavender Sky Health pricing captured September 4, 2026; PlexusDx pricing captured September 12, 2026; Eden, Embody, Found, Henry Meds, Peak Wellness, TrimRx checkout-verified July 17–23, 2026; Fridays advertised rates captured July 20, 2026. All figures are for compounded medications unless otherwise noted.

Normalized 12-month cost comparison: Lavender Sky Health vs. PlexusDx

Lavender Sky Health's advertised starting scenario and PlexusDx's month-to-month and prepaid plans yield different 12-month totals. These calculations assume consistent monthly dosing and no mid-year changes in medication or provider. All derived figures are our calculations based on the pricing structures documented in sources.

Lavender Sky Health compounded semaglutide (advertised starting scenario)

• $190 prepaid every 2 months = 6 payments per year
• 12-month medication cost: 6 × $190 = $1,140
• New consult: $65
• Follow-up fees (every 6 months): $40 × 2 = $80
• Estimated 12-month total: $1,285 ($107.08 per month average, our calculation)

Important caveat: Lavender Sky Health documents that "price varies by pharmacy, dose, and supply length." This calculation assumes the advertised $95 per month equivalent rate ($190 for 2 months) holds across all refills and dose tiers, which is unlikely as your clinician increases your dose. Higher doses will cost more, but no single ongoing or refill rate is documented in sources. The true 12-month cost will depend on which pharmacy you select, your dose progression, and the supply length you choose. Confirm pricing at checkout for your specific dose and pharmacy before committing.

Lavender Sky Health compounded tirzepatide (advertised starting scenario)

• $210 prepaid every 2 months = 6 payments per year
• 12-month medication cost: 6 × $210 = $1,260
• New consult: $65
• Follow-up fees: $40 × 2 = $80
• Estimated 12-month total: $1,405 ($117.08 per month average, our calculation)

The same pricing variability caveat applies: higher doses and different pharmacies will change the per-month cost, and no refill rate is documented.

PlexusDx compounded semaglutide injection

Month-to-month:

• $189 per month × 12 = $2,268 per year ($189 per month)
• Medication, provider access, and shipping included; same price at every dose

6-month commitment (prepaid $149/month):

• $149 per month × 12 = $1,788 per year ($149 per month, our calculation)
• Same inclusions; same price at every dose

PlexusDx compounded tirzepatide injection

Month-to-month:

• $289 per month × 12 = $3,468 per year ($289 per month)

6-month commitment (prepaid $249/month):

• $249 per month × 12 = $2,988 per year ($249 per month, our calculation)

Side-by-side summary: estimated 12-month cost

All figures are our calculations based on documented monthly rates and fee structures. Lavender Sky 12-month totals assume the advertised starting rate holds for all refills and doses, which Lavender Sky explicitly states is not guaranteed. PlexusDx, Eden, Embody, Found, Peak Wellness, and TrimRx rates are fixed and documented as of their respective capture dates.

Decision factors: Lavender Sky Health's variable-rate, multi-pharmacy model

Lavender Sky Health's structure differs from most telehealth GLP-1 programs in three ways:

1. Pharmacy choice and pricing variability: Lavender Sky documents that "price varies by pharmacy, dose, and supply length." Patients select among multiple pharmacy partners, and the per-month cost changes based on that choice, the dose prescribed, and whether you order a 2-month, 3-month, or longer supply. This offers flexibility for patients who prioritize pharmacy preference or want to optimize for the lowest rate available at their current dose, but it makes long-term budgeting harder because you cannot predict your cost as your dose increases.
2. Separate consult and follow-up fees: The advertised medication prices do not include provider visits. A new consult costs $65, and follow-up visits are $40 every 6 months (or every 12 months for maintenance). These fees are modest compared to some competitors' membership structures, but they are line-item charges that must be tracked separately from medication cost.
3. Prepaid 2-month supply standard: The advertised starting rates ($190 for semaglutide, $210 for tirzepatide) represent 2-month prepaid supplies, paid upfront every 2 months. This is a smaller prepayment window than Found's 12-month plan or PlexusDx's 6-month option, but it still requires paying $190–$210 at once rather than monthly billing.

For patients who value pharmacy choice, prefer a lower advertised starting rate, and are comfortable with pricing that changes as treatment progresses, Lavender Sky's model may fit. For patients who prioritize predictable monthly costs and want the same price at every dose, flat-rate alternatives (PlexusDx, Embody, Peak Wellness) offer simpler budgeting.

Decision factors: PlexusDx's flat-rate, same-price-at-every-dose model

PlexusDx charges $189 per month for semaglutide injection and $289 per month for tirzepatide injection on a month-to-month basis, with medication, provider access, and shipping included. The price does not change as your dose increases, so the cost you see at enrollment is the cost you pay at maintenance dose. There is no membership fee, no separate consult charge, and no pricing variability by pharmacy or supply length on the month-to-month plan.

Patients who commit to a 3-month or 6-month prepaid plan pay less per month ($169 and $149 for semaglutide, $269 and $249 for tirzepatide, respectively), but the same-price-at-every-dose rule holds across all commitment tiers. This structure simplifies cost comparison and long-term planning, and it eliminates the risk of a surprise rate increase when your clinician raises your dose.

PlexusDx works with licensed 503A compounding pharmacies and a licensed provider reviews your intake before anything ships. The program does not offer pharmacy choice or branded medications, so patients who want Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, or Mounjaro, or who have a strong preference for a specific compounding pharmacy, should consider Lavender Sky or another provider with branded/multi-pharmacy options.

Decision factors: Other verified alternatives

Eden: Lowest ongoing all-in rate for semaglutide among checkout-verified month-to-month programs

Eden's checkout-verified rate is $198 per month all-in for semaglutide ($99 medication + $99 required membership) and $298 per month for tirzepatide. This is lower than PlexusDx's month-to-month semaglutide rate ($189) on an apples-to-apples basis, and it is the lowest ongoing all-in month-to-month rate for semaglutide among the nine programs in this comparison. Eden's model requires the membership fee every month, so the $99 medication-only figure advertised by some platforms is not directly comparable without adding the membership cost.

Embody: Transparent flat rate, no membership, same price at every dose

Embody charges $299 per month for semaglutide and $349 per month for tirzepatide, with no membership fee and the same price at every dose. This is higher than PlexusDx's month-to-month rates but offers the same budgeting simplicity. Embody is checkout-verified and has a straightforward one-price model with no prepaid discount tiers documented in sources.

Found: Insurance track and 12-month prepaid cash option

Found's month-to-month cash rate is $289 for semaglutide and $359 for tirzepatide. Found also advertises a 12-month prepaid cash plan starting at $169 per month (paid upfront), which is lower than PlexusDx's 6-month prepaid rate ($149) but requires a full-year commitment and upfront payment. Found's insurance track is separate and not directly comparable to cash-pay programs. Found is checkout-verified as of July 2026.

Peak Wellness: Mid-tier month-to-month, lower rates on prepaid plans

Peak Wellness charges $249 per month for semaglutide and $349 per month for tirzepatide on a month-to-month basis. Lower per-month rates are available on 6-month prepaid plans, but the specific prepaid figures are not documented in the research packet. Peak Wellness is checkout-verified and offers a middle ground between the lowest-cost and premium-tier programs.

TrimRx: Advertised vs. checkout-verified rate divergence

TrimRx advertises semaglutide at $199 per month and tirzepatide at $349 per month, but checkout verification in July 2026 documented ongoing rates of $299 per month for semaglutide and $399 per month for tirzepatide. TrimRx offers lower per-month rates on 3-, 6-, and 12-month prepaid plans, but the advertised introductory figures do not represent the ongoing month-to-month cost. Patients evaluating TrimRx should confirm the checkout rate for their preferred plan length.

Henry Meds: Semaglutide injection only; tirzepatide oral dissolving tablet

Henry Meds charges $297 per month for semaglutide injection. Tirzepatide is available as an oral dissolving tablet, but no monthly injectable tirzepatide rate is documented in sources. Henry Meds is checkout-verified for semaglutide.

Fridays: Advertised rates not yet checkout-verified

Fridays advertises semaglutide at $249 per month and tirzepatide at $359 per month as of July 20, 2026. These rates are not yet checkout-verified, so confirm at enrollment that the advertised figure is the ongoing rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Lavender Sky Health's advertised starting price stay the same as my dose increases?

No. Lavender Sky Health documents that "price varies by pharmacy, dose, and supply length." The advertised starting rates ($95 per month equivalent for semaglutide, $105 for tirzepatide, both calculated from prepaid 2-month supplies) represent the lowest tier and may increase when your clinician raises your dose or if you select a different pharmacy or supply length. Confirm your ongoing cost at each refill or dose change.

What is included in PlexusDx's monthly rate, and does it change when my dose goes up?

PlexusDx's monthly rate ($189 semaglutide, $289 tirzepatide on month-to-month; $149 semaglutide, $249 tirzepatide on 6-month prepaid) includes medication, provider access, and shipping. The price is the same at every dose, from the lowest initiation dose through the highest maintenance dose. There is no membership fee and no separate consult charge.

Which program offers the lowest 12-month cost for compounded semaglutide?

Lavender Sky Health's advertised starting scenario yields an estimated 12-month cost of approximately $1,285 if the starting rate holds for all refills and doses, but Lavender Sky states that pricing varies, so this is not guaranteed. PlexusDx's 6-month prepaid plan costs $1,788 per year ($149 per month) with a fixed rate at every dose. Eden's month-to-month all-in rate is $2,376 per year ($198 per month). Found's 12-month prepaid cash plan is advertised from $169 per month paid upfront, which would be approximately $2,028 per year, but the full prepaid total and any additional fees should be confirmed at enrollment.

Can I switch from Lavender Sky Health to PlexusDx or another provider mid-treatment?

Switching telehealth providers mid-treatment is possible, but no provider guarantees an uninterrupted transfer or that your new provider will prescribe the same medication or dose. You will complete a new intake, and a licensed clinician at the new provider will review your medical history and current treatment to determine whether a prescription is appropriate. Some patients experience a gap in medication supply during the transition; plan ahead and coordinate with both providers to minimize interruption.

Does PlexusDx offer branded GLP-1 medications like Wegovy or Zepbound?

No. PlexusDx offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injections, compounded oral semaglutide and tirzepatide capsules, and a microdose GLP-1 protocol. Lavender Sky Health offers both compounded and branded medications (Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro), with documented brand plan fees of $25 per month plus medication cost. If you require or prefer branded FDA-approved medications, Lavender Sky or another provider with brand offerings is the appropriate choice.
