Pros

  • The largest verifiable review base of any provider in this batch: the Trustpilot profile for refills.com showed a 4-star TrustScore from roughly 1,244 reviews when we checked
  • No membership or app fees, stated as a headline promise: "Never Pay for Monthly Memberships or App Fees"
  • All dosages cost the same - "We don't charge you based on dosage changes" - which removes the titration price trap that catches most compounded GLP-1 patients
  • Both a GLP-1 (semaglutide-class) and a GIP + GLP-1 (tirzepatide-class) injectable are offered
  • A published phone number, 888-458-5061, and support@refills.com, with 24/7 health-concierge support advertised
  • Free and discreet shipping on every order
  • Unusually candid disclaimers: it states plainly that compounded drug products are not approved or evaluated by the FDA, and that Refills Health is not a medical services provider but a technology platform
  • It names its clinical partners - Beluga Health, Bask Health and Wasef Health - rather than referring vaguely to "our providers"
  • Certificates of Analysis are available on request for any batch
  • LegitScript certification is displayed

Cons

  • Pricing is quoted per day, not per month. "GLP-1s from $5/day" reads as cheap but is $150 a month, and the site never states a monthly figure
  • Refills is a technology platform, not a medical provider. It does not manufacture or dispense medication and does not employ the clinicians who prescribe
  • All prescription sales are final. State and federal rules do not allow returns of dispensed prescription medication, and once your card is charged and the package is handed to the carrier there is no refund
  • Returns are only accepted on unopened, non-prescription items within 30 days, and you pay the return shipping
  • It does not ship refrigerated products, which the returns page presents as a benefit ("your product will not be affected by increased transit time") but which is worth understanding before you order
  • The medication is compounded, so it has not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, quality or efficacy
  • Available across the US but explicitly not in the District of Columbia
  • Before/after testimonials headline losses of 40 to 120 pounds. The disclaimer that results are not typical is present but far less prominent than the numbers

Pros

  • A published, all-in price for the compounded semaglutide programme: $250.00 with home delivery included
  • Brand-name options are listed alongside compounded ones - Ozempic, Mounjaro, Saxenda, Wegovy, Zepbound and Contrave all appear in the medication catalogue
  • A published phone number, (214) 466-6618, plus email and text support - more contactable than most telehealth weight-loss services
  • Coverage across all 50 states plus the District of Columbia
  • Long service hours: Monday to Friday 5am to midnight CT, weekends 6am to 1am CT
  • No appointment needed - visits happen online when you start them
  • A "Subscribe & Save" programme brings general visits down to $12, useful if you use the service for more than weight loss
  • An RX Savings Card is offered to reduce prescription costs
  • Every programme includes a licensed provider visit that reviews your history and confirms the medication and dose

Cons

  • The $250 compounded semaglutide price is presented on the medication page, but the weight-loss programme pages do not carry a comparable published price for every option
  • Compounded medication is not FDA-approved and has not been reviewed by the FDA for safety, quality or efficacy
  • No refund or cancellation policy is published on the weight-loss pages
  • Insurance is not addressed on the weight-loss pages - this reads as a cash-pay service
  • Patient testimonials are duplicated verbatim across the page, which undermines their value as evidence
  • It is a broad urgent-care telehealth service first and a weight-loss provider second, so there is no dedicated coaching or nutrition programme
  • HSA/FSA acceptance is not stated
