GLP-1 Price Index: Compounded & Branded, Updated Weekly

Fact-checked by Adam Kennah, M.D. on . See our fact-checking policy.

The GLPOneReview price index tracks per-month cash-pay pricing across the U.S. compounded GLP-1 telehealth market. Updated weekly through direct provider checkout observation. This is the canonical pricing dataset that drives every pricing claim across this site.

Methodology: Each provider is observed at three price tiers — starting plan (lowest commitment), mid-term plan (typically quarterly), and longest commitment. Pricing reflects month-equivalent cost for the most common cash-pay weight-management protocol offered by each provider. Shipping fees and required consultation costs are included where they bundle into the monthly price; where separate, they are listed in the notes column. Verified by Maria Torres via checkout observation, week of May 12–19, 2026.

How to use this data

  • Headline numbers can mislead. Providers advertising the lowest starting price frequently raise prices at mid- or maintenance-dose tiers. The flat-rate-through-titration column matters more than the starting-tier column for most patients who will reach maintenance dose.
  • Shipping and consultations. Where not included in the monthly price (most cash-pay providers include them), they can add $15–$50/month.
  • "Insurance-leveraged" programs. Sequence, Calibrate, and Form Health rely on insurance coverage of the underlying medication. The program fee is what you pay; the medication cost depends on your plan. Out-of-pocket can be lower than cash-pay compounded if you have coverage, or higher if you don't.
  • The lowest stable rate is what matters at year one. For most patients, the right question is "what will I pay at month 12, on maintenance dose?" not "what's the introductory price?"

Methodology details

Provider pricing is gathered by direct checkout observation — adding the standard cash-pay weight-management plan to cart on each provider's site and recording the monthly price displayed before submission. Where multiple plan durations are offered, all are recorded. Bundled inclusions (shipping, consultations, coaching) are recorded in the notes column. The full methodology is documented at our methodology page.
