All three programs sell compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injections, so this is a like-for-like comparison on price and terms. MEDVi's compounded semaglutide injection is $179 for a new patient's first month, then $299 per billing cycle at refill as displayed September 22, 2026; MEDVi's ongoing month-to-month rate for compounded tirzepatide injection is $399, verified September 22, 2026, with its tirzepatide first-month offer shown after the questionnaire. Remedy Meds' campaign pages show semaglutide injection at $299/mo recurring and tirzepatide injection at $399/mo recurring, with lower first-month rates on those pages. PlexusDx charges a flat $189/mo for Semaglutide Injection and $289/mo for Tirzepatide Injection month-to-month, with no first-month step-up and no membership. Terms differ as much as prices, so read both before choosing.

Three-provider shortlist

MEDVi is a telehealth platform; prescriptions are issued by licensed providers in its network and filled by compounding pharmacies it names (Triad Rx, RedRock Pharmacy, Beaker Pharmacy & Compounding). Remedy Meds is a telehealth program that includes the prescription, physician care, cold-chain shipping and clinician access in its monthly price, serving all 50 states plus DC. PlexusDx connects you to an independent network of U.S.-licensed clinicians through a state-licensed telehealth platform, with medication prepared by state-licensed 503A compounding pharmacies, for eligible adults in all 50 states; five states require a scheduled video consultation.

Medication and route match

Each offers compounded semaglutide injection and compounded tirzepatide injection. MEDVi adds a daily compounded semaglutide tablet and a branded Wegovy® and Zepbound® pathway priced as a monthly membership plus medication. Remedy Meds' public pages list injections; its microdose and branded pricing are not published. PlexusDx adds Semaglutide Oral, Tirzepatide Oral and a Microdose GLP-1 Protocol. Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved drug products and are not the same as Wegovy®, Ozempic®, Zepbound® or Mounjaro®. Brand-drug trial results do not establish identical outcomes for a compounded injection. The FDA's position is summarized in its statement on unapproved GLP-1 drugs.

Worked totals for semaglutide, same route. MEDVi new patient, intro plus (n − 1) refills: $777 for three cycles, $1,674 for six, $3,468 for twelve, assuming the $299 refill holds and each cycle bills once. Remedy Meds' default and multi-month totals are unknown, so no total is computed. PlexusDx Semaglutide Injection month-to-month: $567, $1,134 and $2,268. For tirzepatide, PlexusDx month-to-month is $867, $1,734 and $3,468; MEDVi refill-only at its ongoing $399 rate (verified September 22, 2026) is $1,197, $2,394 and $4,788, and no new-patient MEDVi tirzepatide total is computed because its first-month offer is not published. Like for like, that is $289/mo at PlexusDx versus MEDVi's ongoing $399/mo, $110 a month less at PlexusDx; $3,468 versus $4,788 over twelve billing cycles at the ongoing rates. MEDVi offers 3-, 6- and 12-month bundles; their rates appear in its signup flow and are not published here.

A note on genetics (optional)

PlexusDx offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide through its Weight Management Protocols. Separately, and only if it interests you, the GLP-1 & Peptide Pathways Genetic Test ($298) analyzes 14 pathways, 49 peptides, 150+ genetic insights, including variants in FTO, MC4R and TCF7L2 that relate to appetite and glucose-handling pathways. It does not predict how you will respond to any medication and does not tell you which drug, dose or provider is right for you; it is context for a conversation with your clinician. Test before you invest, and treat genetics as a guide, not a guarantee.

This article is educational. PlexusDx is not affiliated with MEDVi and has no commercial relationship with the companies discussed. PlexusDx offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide through its own Weight Management Protocols; this article compares approaches in the GLP-1 telehealth space. The GLP-1 & Peptide Pathways Genetic Test analyzes how your genes influence peptide-related biological pathways. It does not predict response to any specific medication and does not recommend, prescribe, or determine which peptides you should use. Consult a qualified healthcare provider before beginning any peptide protocol. Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved drug products; they are prepared by state-licensed compounding pharmacies under federal compounding rules and are not the same as Wegovy®, Ozempic®, Zepbound® or Mounjaro®.

On the figures published September 22, 2026, they match: Remedy Meds shows $299 per month recurring with a $179 first month on its campaign pages, and MEDVi shows $179 for the first month then $299 per cycle at refill.

Remedy Meds publishes tirzepatide injection at $399 per month recurring, with $279 for the first month on campaign pages. PlexusDx publishes Tirzepatide Injection at $289 per month month-to-month, flat across doses. MEDVi's ongoing month-to-month rate for compounded tirzepatide injection is $399, verified September 22, 2026; MEDVi shows its tirzepatide first-month offer after the questionnaire, so confirm that figure in its official offer.
