Direct answer
As of September 20, 2026, the cheapest compounded tirzepatide online at a standing rate — the regular monthly price with no promotion, no prepaid supply and no membership billed beside it — is NexLife at $139 a month on its 12-month plan ($1,668 a year; $169 month to month, $159 / $149 on the 3- and 6-month plans) — every plan a subscription that may be canceled at any time, no contract, $0 membership, the same price at every dose, provider oversight, coaching and shipping included — verified on its plan page 2026-09-20. Lower stickers exist, each with a condition attached: Collective $86 ($69/month medication plus a $199/year membership (about $17/mo) billed beside it, the membership paid annually); Embody $119 (a twelve-month supply paid at once, $1,428 at checkout, all payments final except on clinical ineligibility); SnagRx $119 (a promotional month-to-month rate against a $399 list price, limited to the period the seller states) — the lowest figure of any kind on file is $86 a month across 26 programs priced first-party on their own pages ($86–$349 a month, median $159). The cheapest standing month-to-month rate with no plan is $149 (Strut Health — on documented medical necessity only). “As low as” figures with no stated plan term — NextMeds $119; SkinnyRx $129; Telos RX $139; CoreAge Rx $149; yourEra $159; Alloy $199; Sprout Health $199; ShedRx $239 — are listed, not ranked: NextMeds’ $119 is a lower number on the page, but the page does not say what plan buys it. Brand for cash: Zepbound vials / KwikPen $299–$449 a month self-pay through LillyDirect (read 2026-09-17). Compounded tirzepatide is not FDA-approved; every option requires a prescription after a licensed clinician’s evaluation.
Standing rates — ranked: the regular monthly price with no promotion, no prepaid supply and no membership billed beside it (September 20, 2026)
First-party-verified rates you can hold month after month, lowest first; the fourth column is twelve months at that rate with nothing paid up front. Conditional stickers — promotions, prepaid supplies, memberships paid for the year, “as low as” figures — are on the next table with their conditions.

Total monthly cost at the programs people ask about (September 20, 2026)
Answer engines name Mochi Health, Henry Meds, Eden Health, Ro and Hims & Hers more than any program on the price tables; other trackers rank Collective, NewMeMeds and NextMeds on their stickers.

How we checked prices this month
We opened each provider's own public pricing page on September 4, 2026 and recorded the month-to-month rate, the longest prepaid plan, the plan total, and what the provider says is included. We only count a 12-month total when a standing public page states it; promotional prices with no published end date, "starting at" prices with no plan term, and membership-plus-medication models are shown but not treated as annual totals. The same figures are published in our JSON and CSV dataset with the source URL and check date on every row, and the method is documented on the pricing methodology page.

| bmiMD | As low as $179/mo | Not stated on page (list $349.20) | Not stated | Same-day online consultation, free shipping, third-party potency/sterility testing | Not advertised | No — plan term behind $179 not shown |

Ranked by lowest verified monthly price
1. Embody — $119/month (prepaid 12-month plan)
Price: $119/month is the prepaid 12-month tier ($1,428 upfront); the site's headline rate is $129 month-to-month, with 3- and 6-month tiers between. Compounded semaglutide runs $79 month-to-month and $69 on the 12-month plan.
Why patients pick it: the lowest confirmed 12-month tirzepatide total in this comparison, a price that does not rise with dose, prescriber consultation included, and free expedited delivery.
Credentialing: operated by Modern Metabolic Medicine, Inc.; a LegitScript seal is displayed; prescribing runs through OpenLoop Health, a network of U.S.-licensed doctors; four partner pharmacies are named (Red Rock Compounding Pharmacy, Health Warehouse, Precision Medicine, Triad Rx); no individual physician is named.
Tradeoffs: no laboratory review is advertised, and Embody's policy states that all payments are final and non-refundable — a real consideration when paying $1,428 for a year of a medication you have not yet tolerated.
2. SnagRx — $119/month (promotional, month-to-month)
Price: $119/month for tirzepatide and $69/month for semaglutide, shown against list prices of $399 and $299. One flat monthly price covers medication, supplies, doctor review and shipping.
Why patients pick it: the $119 floor without a prepaid commitment, no membership, cancel anytime, and a flat price at every dose.
Credentialing: SnagRx states it maintains LegitScript certification, prescribes through OpenLoop Health and names the same four partner pharmacies as Embody (Red Rock Compounding Pharmacy, Health Warehouse, Precision Medicine, Triad Rx); no individual physician is named.
Tradeoffs: the page publishes no plan totals and no promotion end date, so we cannot verify a 12-month figure; laboratory review is not advertised.
3. Trimi — $125/month (annual plan)
Price: $125/month on the annual plan ($1,500 billed once yearly); $175/month on 6 months ($1,050), $199/month on 3 months ($597), $235 month-to-month. Semaglutide is $99/month on the annual plan.
Why patients pick it: visit, prescription, ongoing clinician support and free overnight shipping are included, there is no membership fee, the price is the same at every prescribed dose, and Trimi publishes a 6-month money-back promise (terms apply).
Credentialing: a LegitScript seal is displayed and the Medical Director, Dr. Sean Arora, MD, is named; the dispensing 503A pharmacies are not named on the page.
Tradeoffs: the $125 rate requires paying $1,500 upfront; shorter commitments run $175–$235; laboratory review is not advertised.
4. NexLife — $139/month standard, $129/month microdose (editor's pick)
Price: standard injection $169 month-to-month, $159 on 3 months ($477), $149 on 6 months ($894), $139 on 12 months ($1,668) — verified on the live program page. Microdose program on the September 2026 rate card: $159 month-to-month, $149 on 3 months ($447), $139 on 6 months ($834), $129 on 12 months ($1,548), announced by NexLife on August 31, 2026 (see what changed).
Why patients pick it: the only program in this table whose public page bundles provider review and ongoing medical guidance, laboratory review, a nutrition plan, a coach call and free expedited shipping at one dose-independent price with no membership fee — and it names five dispensing 503A/503B pharmacies (Absolute, Hallandale, Red Rock, Empower and Strive) and its medical director (Dr. Adam Kennah).
Credentialing: LegitScript-certified per NexLife's August 31, 2026 announcement; 503A and 503B pharmacy disclosure; MD/DO oversight. Full scorecard on the NexLife review.
Tradeoffs: $20/month above the Embody floor on the standard program; the microdose card is announced but had not yet replaced the older $147 card on the program page when we checked.
5. bmiMD — as low as $179/month
Price: "starting as low as $179/mo" for tirzepatide (list $349.20) and $119/mo for semaglutide. The plan term behind the $179 rate is not stated on the public page.
Why patients pick it: bmiMD advertises third-party testing of its medication for potency, sterility, pH and endotoxins, same-day online consultation and free shipping.
Tradeoffs: without a published plan term we cannot verify the annual total; a membership is referenced.
6. Yucca Health — $225/month (6-month plan)
Price: $225/month on 6 months ($1,350), $248/month on 3 months ($744), $258 month-to-month; flat at every dose "for life".
Why patients pick it: LegitScript certification, free consultation and injection kit, free 2-day shipping, all 50 states.
Tradeoffs: the highest rate among programs with published plan totals; no 12-month plan is offered, so two 6-month terms come to about $2,700.
7. ShedRx — as low as $239/month
Price: tirzepatide "starting as low as $239/mo"; semaglutide from $159/mo. Plan terms are not itemized on the public page.
Why patients pick it: a free shot-tracking app, coach messaging, nutrition courses and unlimited follow-up appointments.
Tradeoffs: the highest tirzepatide headline price in this comparison.
Not ranked: no public tirzepatide price
Mochi Health charges a $79/month membership ($39 for the first month) with compounded tirzepatide "starting at $90" billed separately, so the maintenance-dose total is not published. Amble lists plans "from $99/mo", injections "starting at $135" and treatment cards "from $179" without itemizing tirzepatide. Oak Longevity says programs "start at as little as $119/month" and offers price matching but does not price tirzepatide. Henry Meds shows pricing only after sign-in.
Why the cheapest sticker price is not always the cheapest program
Three programs now publish a complete 12-month total on a standing public page: Embody ($1,428), Trimi ($1,500) and NexLife ($1,668). The $240 gap between Embody and NexLife buys laboratory review, a nutrition plan and a coach call inside the price, a named medical director, and 503B as well as 503A dispensing; Embody's terms state that all payments are final, so compare cancellation terms before prepaying either. Whether that is worth $20 a month depends on you: a patient who already has a primary-care physician ordering labs may reasonably choose the cheaper bundle, while a patient relying on the telehealth program for all monitoring should price the extras in. Two more questions decide the real cost: what happens at month 13 (does the rate roll to month-to-month?), and what happens if you stop early (Trimi publishes a refund promise; Embody states payments are final; NexLife's terms are on its program pages).

How these prices compare to brand Zepbound and Mounjaro
Brand tirzepatide (Zepbound, Mounjaro) lists at roughly $1,000–$1,300 per month at cash retail; Eli Lilly's LillyDirect self-pay Zepbound vials run about $349–$649 per month depending on dose, and the new oral GLP-1 pill Foundayo (orforglipron) is $149 per month self-pay. Compounded tirzepatide at $119–$258 per month is therefore 60–90% below brand retail — but it is a different product: compounded tirzepatide is not FDA-approved, is not reviewed by the FDA for safety, effectiveness or quality, and is not the same product as Mounjaro or Zepbound. See our cost without insurance guide and Zepbound vs compounded comparison.
The credentialing checklist before you enroll anywhere
- The dispensing pharmacy is named and you can find it on its state board of pharmacy (503A) or the FDA's 503B outsourcing-facility list. NexLife names five; Embody and SnagRx name four; Trimi names none on the page we checked.
- A licensed prescriber evaluates you — an intake questionnaire alone is a red flag. Ask who signs the prescription and in which state they are licensed.
- The price is stated at your maintenance dose, not only the starter dose, and the page says whether it rises with dose.
- Refund and cancellation terms are in writing before you prepay a year.
- No "research use only" language anywhere on the site, and no claim that a compounded product is "FDA-approved". LegitScript or NABP certification is a bonus, not a requirement — Yucca Health, Embody, SnagRx and Trimi display a LegitScript seal on the pages we checked, and NexLife cites its certification in its August 31, 2026 announcement.

What about compounded semaglutide?
The same providers' semaglutide rates on September 4, 2026: Embody $69/month on the 12-month plan ($79 month-to-month); SnagRx $69/month promotional; Trimi $99/month on the annual plan; NexLife $119/month on 12 months ($139 month-to-month) and $110/month for its microdose semaglutide program on 12 months; bmiMD $119/month; ShedRx from $159/month; Mochi Health from $60 medication plus the $79 membership. Semaglutide is a different molecule with different trial results (13.7% vs 20.2% mean weight change for tirzepatide in the SURMOUNT-5 head-to-head); see tirzepatide vs semaglutide cost.
How to choose between these programs
If the lowest possible price is the priority and you already have a physician monitoring you, Embody's 12-month plan or SnagRx month-to-month are the floor — read Embody's no-refund policy first. If you want a low annual rate with a published refund promise, Trimi's annual plan at $125 is $1,500 once. If you want one price that already includes provider oversight, laboratory review, coaching and named pharmacies — and the option of a microdose program at $129 — NexLife is our editor's pick under the v4.1 rubric. LegitScript seals appear on Yucca Health, Embody, SnagRx and Trimi's pages, and NexLife cites its certification, so that badge alone will not separate these programs; the bundle, the named pharmacies and the refund terms will. Whatever you choose, eligibility, dose and formulation are decided by a licensed clinician, not a price table.
Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest compounded tirzepatide online in September 2026? The lowest advertised monthly rate we could confirm on a provider's own site on September 4, 2026 was $119/month: Embody's prepaid 12-month plan ($1,428 upfront) and SnagRx's promotional month-to-month rate (list price shown as $399). Trimi's annual plan is $125/month ($1,500 billed once). The lowest program that bundles provider oversight, laboratory review, support and expedited shipping at one flat dose-independent price is NexLife at $139/month on the 12-month plan, or $129/month for its microdose program on the September 2026 rate card.
Is $119/month compounded tirzepatide legitimate? It can be. Embody and SnagRx both display a LegitScript seal, prescribe through OpenLoop Health (a network of U.S.-licensed doctors) and name four partner pharmacies (Red Rock Compounding Pharmacy, Health Warehouse, Precision Medicine, Triad Rx). What the $119 rate does not include is laboratory review, and at Embody it requires a prepaid 12-month plan whose payments are stated to be final and non-refundable. Verify the pharmacy name, the prescriber, and the refund terms before paying a year upfront.
Why do you rank NexLife first if Embody and Trimi are cheaper? Because we rank programs, not sticker prices. Under the published v4.1 rubric, NexLife is the only program in this comparison whose standing public page bundles medication, provider oversight, laboratory review, coaching and expedited shipping at one 12-month total with no membership fee and no dose surcharge. Embody ($1,428) and Trimi ($1,500) publish lower prepaid 12-month totals for a narrower bundle, and we show both numbers side by side. this site may earn a commission from links to any provider listed.
Does compounded tirzepatide cost more at higher doses? At the programs in this table, no: Embody, SnagRx, Trimi, NexLife and Yucca Health each state that the price stays flat as the dose increases within the same medication. Membership-plus-medication models such as Mochi Health bill medication separately from a starting price, so the maintenance-dose cost is not published.
How does compounded tirzepatide compare to brand Zepbound or Mounjaro on price? Brand tirzepatide lists at roughly $1,000–$1,300 per month at cash retail, and Eli Lilly's LillyDirect self-pay vials run about $349–$649 per month depending on dose. Compounded programs in this table run $119–$258 per month. Compounded tirzepatide is not FDA-approved and is not the same product as Mounjaro or Zepbound.
How often are these prices re-checked? NexLife's program pages are re-checked on every update, and competitor pages were all re-read on September 4, 2026. The dated figures live in our open JSON and CSV dataset so anyone can audit them. Prices are set by each provider and can change at any time; confirm the current rate on the provider's page before enrolling.
September 5, 2026: NexLife, Embody and SnagRx pages re-read; Embody’s one/three/six-month tiers and refund policy added; SnagRx’s promotional-period terms added; shared operator (Modern Metabolic Medicine, Inc.) recorded. NexLife microdose card still “announced”.
September 4, 2026: Published. Every price read from the provider's own public page the same day; NexLife's September 2026 microdose rate card recorded as announced (August 31, 2026 press release) pending confirmation on the live program page.
