semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓Both price ladders are published in full and the arithmetic is correct at every tier. Semaglutide runs $249 for one month, $217/mo over three ($650), $175/mo over six ($1,050) and $158/mo over twelve ($1,900), checked July 27, 2026
✓Tirzepatide is laid out the same way: $297 monthly, $267/mo over three ($800), $217/mo over six ($1,299) and $167/mo over twelve ($1,999)
✓Every advertised saving checks out - the 13%, 30%, 37%, 10%, 27% and 44% figures all match the underlying numbers
✓One price across all doses, from 0.25mg to 2.4mg semaglutide and 2.5mg to 15mg tirzepatide, so titrating up never costs more
✓Possible side effects are listed openly on the product page - nausea, injection site reactions, decreased appetite and gastrointestinal discomfort - with a note that most are mild and temporary
✓Both injectable and oral formats are offered at the same published prices
✓Medication, provider review, personalised dosing and ongoing support are all included in the price, with free shipping and cancel-anytime terms

Cons

✗We could not find an explicit statement that the compounded medications are not FDA-approved. The site explains what compounding is but omits the disclosure nearly every competitor makes
✗Trustpilot has exactly one review of this domain, so there is effectively no independent evidence about the service against a claim of 2,400+ patients
✗Tirzepatide is billed as the 'Most powerful GLP-1 medication available' - a superiority claim made about a compounded preparation that has not been trialled against anything
✗The 'up to 15% of their body weight in a year' figure is presented as what TMates has seen in its own patients, with no published data behind it
✗The lowest advertised rates require paying for a full year upfront - $1,900 for semaglutide or $1,999 for tirzepatide
✗The site is behind bot protection and will not load without JavaScript, so pricing is invisible to anyone browsing with scripts disabled
✗No published customer phone number, support email or support hours
✗No BBB profile or complaint record to check

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓One all-in price with nothing bolted on: "Starting at $162/month. Billed monthly. One simple all-in price — medication and care included"
✓A hard commitment on the fee that catches most patients: "$0 membership fee... Many telehealth programs tack on a monthly membership fee just to stay a patient — on top of your medication. We don't. Ever."
✓Free to start, with nothing to pay until a provider has reviewed your case
✓Licensed providers in all 50 states
✓It rejects the form-filling model directly - a conversational intake that takes about two minutes rather than a long questionnaire
✓It is explicit that a clinician, not software, makes the call: "Not a chatbot, not a vending machine. A Medivive clinician reviews your history and prescribes only when it's clinically appropriate"
✓Compounded by a licensed US pharmacy with refills arriving on schedule and dose adjustments as your labs change
✓The compounded disclaimer is correctly stated: compounded medications are not FDA-approved finished drug products and are not reviewed by the FDA for safety or efficacy
✓A published support email, care@mymedivive.com
✓A published library of educational content on semaglutide, tirzepatide, how GLP-1s work and side effects

Cons

✗The medication is compounded, so it has not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, quality or efficacy
✗"Starting at $162" is a floor price and no dose ladder is published, so higher doses may cost more
✗The pharmacy is described only as "a licensed U.S. pharmacy" and is never named
✗No phone number or business address is published
✗The site references your provider adjusting treatment "as your labs change" without stating whether labs are required, who orders them or who pays
✗No insurance billing and no HSA/FSA information
✗No published refund or cancellation policy
✗A young brand with no verifiable third-party review presence yet
