You’ve done the research. You know GLP-1s exist, you’ve heard of peptides like BPC-157, maybe you’ve read about NAD+ or semax. Now you’re staring at 15 browser tabs trying to figure out which telehealth company is actually worth trusting with your money and your body. The recommendations pile up fast in forums, subreddits, and group chats, and a handful of names appear over and over. These are those names, and why people keep picking them.
1. FormBlends
The reason FormBlends comes up first in longevity weight loss discussions is structural, not cosmetic. It’s one of very few platforms where someone can get a physician-supervised prescription for compounded semaglutide at $299 per vial AND order BPC-157 at $54 per vial through the same account, both going through an FDA-registered compounding pharmacy. That combination doesn’t exist almost anywhere else. Most GLP-1 telehealth brands stop at GLP-1s. Most peptide sellers are research-only operations with zero clinical oversight.
The purity question matters here. FormBlends publishes HPLC purity results per product, per batch. Semaglutide clocks at 99.1%, tirzepatide at 99.3%, BPC-157 at 99.2%. These aren’t a generic “third-party tested” badge on the website. They’re product-specific numbers you can actually read before you order.
The model: you fill out an online intake, a licensed physician reviews it, the prescription routes through the pharmacy, and it ships with cold-chain handling to 47 states at no added freight charge. Cash pricing is posted flat before signup. No membership fee layered on top of the medication cost. Compare that to Ro Body, where the base membership runs separately from whatever the medication costs on top.
The catalog is genuinely wide: retatrutide at $389, cagrilintide at $279, NAD+ at $89, epitalon at $59, thymosin alpha-1 at $59. For anyone thinking about longevity beyond just weight, that range under physician supervision is hard to find in one place.
One honest caveat: compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. That’s true of every compounding pharmacy, FormBlends included.
2. Mochi Health
Mochi consistently gets called out in obesity-medicine communities for one specific reason: their clinicians are board-certified in obesity medicine, not just general practitioners ticking a box. That’s a real difference in how monitoring gets handled. Compounded semaglutide runs about $99 per month, compounded tirzepatide about $199. Three and 12-month pricing drops those numbers further. They also accept insurance for branded GLP-1s when that route makes more sense for the patient.
3. Hims & Hers
After a March 2026 settlement with Novo Nordisk, Hims stopped prescribing compounded semaglutide to new patients and pivoted hard to branded medications. Injectable Wegovy now runs about $299 per month through the platform, oral Wegovy around $249, and Zepbound approximately $399. The interface is clean and well-built, and new users move through signup quickly. For patients with commercial insurance and access to the manufacturer savings card, out-of-pocket costs can fall to nearly nothing. The brand recognition brings a lot of first-time GLP-1 users to their door.
4. Ro Body
Ro’s structure separates the program cost from the medication cost, which feels annoying until you realize it lets them submit prior-authorization paperwork on your behalf for branded drugs. The membership starts at $39 for the first month, then roughly $74 per month on an annual prepay. They have an established track record, and the prior-auth support is something lighter platforms skip entirely. Good fit for patients who are insurance-eligible and want someone handling the paperwork.
5. Henry Meds
People recommend Henry Meds most for one thing: speed. Shipments frequently leave within 24 to 72 hours of approval. Their cash-pay compounded programs typically start between $179 and $249 for the first month. The tradeoff is that ongoing clinical monitoring is lighter than what you’d get from a more intensive program. For someone who knows what they’re doing and wants medication delivered fast without a lot of friction, that’s exactly the point.
6. PlushCare
PlushCare operates differently from most names on this list. The app membership is about $19.99 per month, but it’s really a primary care platform that prescribes branded FDA-approved drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro. Same-day appointments are actually available. Labs, visits, and prescriptions bill separately. It accepts insurance. The appeal is that it functions more like a real medical practice than a weight-loss-specific subscription, which some patients prefer.
7. Calibrate
Calibrate is the one people bring up when behavior change is the actual goal. The program runs on a 12-month commitment model with a coaching layer built around food, sleep, exercise, and stress alongside medication. Program fees are separate from medication costs. It’s best suited for insured patients who want structured accountability, not just a prescription. The coaching is substantive, not just a chatbot.
8. MEDVi
MEDVi doesn’t get as much press as the bigger names, but it keeps appearing in cash-pay comparison threads. First-month pricing on compounded GLP-1 programs runs around $179. No contracts, no membership fees stacked on top. A physician reviews your case and 24/7 support is included in that base price. For patients who want a no-commitment structure without sacrificing physician access, it punches above its visibility.
A Note on the 2026 Market Shift
The regulatory environment tightened noticeably in early 2026. The FDA sent warning letters to more than 30 compounding and telehealth companies over GLP-1 marketing claims, and the Novo Nordisk settlement pushed several well-known platforms away from compounded semaglutide entirely. That’s why some brands on this list now primarily offer branded drugs. It also means the platforms that kept compounding legally in place through an FDA-registered pharmacy became more valuable to patients who want that option.
What to Look For in Any Platform
- Published purity data, not just “third-party tested” language
- A prescribing physician, not just an algorithm
- Transparent per-unit pricing before you enter a credit card
- A clear answer on whether the pharmacy is 503A or 503B and why it matters
Before changing anything about your health protocols based on this or any other article, get your own bloodwork reviewed by a clinician who knows your history. That step is not optional, and no listicle replaces it.
