Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓The full dose-by-dose price ladder is published before purchase: semaglutide 0.25 mg (4 injections) $125, 0.5 mg $245, 1.0 mg $295, 1.7 mg + 2.4 mg $345, 2.5 mg $395
✓No subscription is necessary - you can buy a single month without enrolling in anything recurring
✓HSA and FSA cards are accepted
✓Physician access is included in the product price
✓Ships 2-day or overnight, and the product does not require refrigeration in transit
✓A clear, published eligibility floor: a minimum BMI of 27 is required to order
✓If a physician does not approve your order, it is refunded instantly
✓A physician may contact you within 24 hours of purchase if more information is needed

Cons

✗A blanket no-refund policy on everything else: "Our medications are ordered specifically per patient and therefore cannot be refunded. We have a 'no refund policy'"
✗Subscription patients are automatically escalated to a higher dose every month unless they email support to opt out - and the price rises with the dose. The burden is on you to stop it
✗The escalating price ladder means the $125 headline is a first-month figure only. By month five you are at $395
✗You have 48 hours from delivery to inspect the package and report any problem, which is a short window if you are travelling
✗Insurance is not accepted at all
✗HSA/FSA support is minimal - only a plain purchase receipt is provided, with no codes, forms or physician notes if your administrator asks for them
✗The medication is compounded and therefore not FDA-approved
✗No phone number is published - contact is info@citizenmeds.com only
✗The website itself is thin: the product catalogue carries far more detail than the company does

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
