Medications
semaglutide

Pros

  • Pricing is published without an intake: compounded semaglutide at $299/month, discounted from a stated $344, and Bella Capsules at $149/month (checked July 28, 2026)
  • Health coaching is bundled with the medication rather than sold as an upsell
  • The site states plainly that the medications are compounded, in the first line of the product description
  • An eligibility check is available before you commit to a plan

Cons

  • A Trustpilot average of 3.0 across roughly 1,000 largely unsolicited reviews is a real warning sign, and among the lowest of any provider on this site
  • The claim of 'up to 20% weight loss within 6 months' for compounded semaglutide does not match the evidence. The STEP-1 trial of branded semaglutide found about 15% over 68 weeks; 20% is closer to the tirzepatide figure, and neither trial studied a compounded product over six months
  • Describing its medication as containing ingredients 'clinically proven to be safe and effective' borrows the approved drug's evidence for a compounded preparation that has not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, efficacy or quality
  • At $299/month for compounded semaglutide, it is among the more expensive compounded options we cover - several providers charge under $200
  • Trustpilot lists the company's location as the United Kingdom, so check service coverage before assuming US availability
  • No published phone number
  • GLP-1 medications are not suitable for anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2, or during pregnancy

Medications
semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

  • Tiered pricing is published on the product pages: the GLP-1 + B12 program is $149/month at Level 1 ($447 for a 10-12 week supply) and $139/month at Level 2 ($834), with tirzepatide at $149 to start then $249/month billed quarterly (checked July 27, 2026)
  • Free physician consultation and free shipping are included rather than charged separately
  • A price-match guarantee is offered against competitors
  • Compounded semaglutide is paired with B12 in a single injection, which some patients prefer to two separate shots
  • Comprehensive bloodwork is available, which is more than most GLP-1 sellers offer
  • Unlimited provider access is advertised with the plan
  • One of the broader catalogues in the category if you want hormone, sexual health or longevity care from the same clinic

Cons

  • All sales are final once medication is received - PeterMD will not refund or accept returns 'regardless of whether the product remains unused'
  • Damaged or defective items must be reported with a photo within 24 hours of delivery, and the policy states that later requests 'will not be honored'
  • An exit popup pressures an HCG add-on with manufactured scarcity: 'This is the last time you'll see $301... $301 today. $412 if you add it later'
  • The discount maths on the GLP-1 page does not hold up. A '3-Month Plan' shown as 'Regular price: $358.00, Today: $315.00' is labelled '-40%'. That is a 12% reduction, not 40%
  • The same $315 figure appears as PeterMD's own discounted price and, elsewhere on the page, as what 'Others' charge in a '3.8x More Affordable' comparison
  • Tirzepatide is described as 'Clinically proven' although the product sold is a compounded preparation, which has not been through the trials that phrase refers to
  • 'The Largest Online Healthcare Clinic in North America' appears in the page title with nothing to support it
  • This offer is not available in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, North Carolina, South Carolina or Texas - twelve states including the two largest
