Medications
semaglutidetirzepatide
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

Medications
semaglutidetirzepatide
Pros
- ✓Offers brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound as well as compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, so you are not locked into compounded product
- ✓Trustpilot rating of 4.3 across 4,535 reviews, one of the largest and healthiest review samples of any provider on this site
- ✓Membership, virtual visits, support groups, lifestyle coaching and prescription ordering are bundled at no extra cost
- ✓Cancel or pause the plan at any time to stop future billing
- ✓Full refund if you pay and a provider then determines you are not eligible for treatment
- ✓The compounded, not-FDA-approved disclosure is specific and easy to find
- ✓Testimonials are labelled honestly - the page states 'These Fridays members were paid for their testimonials', which most competitors do not admit
- ✓Oral and injectable formats, plus microdosing, longevity and testosterone lines for people wanting more than weight care
Cons
- ✗The pricing page contradicts itself in the same viewport, advertising 'Now as Low as $117/mo' and 'Now as Low as $150/mo' side by side, and listing 'Semaglutide: $117/mo (Lowest Price)' directly above 'Semaglutide: $150/mo (Lowest Price)'
- ✗Four separate plan cards display an unrendered template placeholder reading 'Save up to $xxx' instead of an actual figure
- ✗The headline '96.8% success rate' is stated three times with no definition of success, no sample size and no source
- ✗Prices are gated behind a maze of codes - NEWYOU12, NEWYOU3, NEWYOU1, NYNY12, NYNY3, NYNY1, FORBES, EXPERTISE, SHOP100 - and the terms confirm 'the discount will be applied to your first payment only'
- ✗The relationship between the advertised rate and the annual rate is presented confusingly, with semaglutide shown as 'Starting at $117 $150/mo' and '$279/mo with an annual plan' on the same card
- ✗No refunds or credits are given for partial plan periods unless required by law, so pausing mid-cycle does not get money back
- ✗The '$49 first month' offer converts to a prepaid annual plan, which means committing a year in advance to keep the low rate
- ✗Charges appear under a third party's name on your statement, which has caused confusion for customers of similar services
