Best for: Shoppers who want compounded semaglutide with coaching at a flat monthly price, and who may later want a route to brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound.

MatchScript's take: ElixaMD now shows what compounded semaglutide really costs — $199 a month after a $99 first month — but its brand-name options still hide the drug price behind a $99 membership.

The factor breakdown

ElixaMD on the six Match Score factors — the same sub-scores the quiz reweights to your priorities. See the methodology.

Budget Fit55/100

Semaglutide from $199/mo puts Budget Fit at a below-par 55 — above the budget tiers.

Speed to Start62/100

Limited or undisclosed state coverage can slow your start, for a below-par 62 on Speed to Start.

Formulary Match90/100

ElixaMD lists an oral/sublingual route and brand-name access, for a strong 90 on Formulary Match.

Support Level80/100

Support Level scores 80/100 in our comparison. Confirm who answers clinical questions, how to reach them and whether follow-up visits cost extra.

Flexibility70/100

Flexibility scores 70/100 in our comparison. Check the renewal, cancellation and refund terms before paying; dose changes require a prescriber's approval.

Transparency66/100

Thinner public disclosure than the highest-scoring programs keeps Transparency at a below-par 66.

What we found on their site

Read on ElixaMD's own website in October 2026. Quoted text is theirs.

  • The pricing FAQ reads: "The ElixaMD Semaglutide program starts at $99 for your first month with no contract," and then: "Refills are locked in at $199 and include all the same program benefits."
  • Each brand-name option — the Wegovy pill, the Wegovy injection and the Zepbound injection — is labeled "$99 Membership + Medication Cost", with no medication price beside it.
  • The banner at the top of the same page says "No membership or hidden fees! Everything you need is included", which holds for the compounded program but not for the brand-name options.
  • The disclaimer names who prescribes: medical treatment is provided by "CareGLP Affiliated P.C.s," and OpenLoop Health, and partner pharmacies are listed with street addresses on the main site.

What we like

  • Compounded semaglutide refills are $199 a month with no contract, and that price covers the physician review, 1:1 guidance and the medication
  • Also offers brand-name Wegovy (pill and injection) and Zepbound for people who want an FDA-approved drug
  • Names its partner pharmacies with addresses and phone numbers: Triad Rx in Alabama, RedRock Pharmacy in Utah and Beaker Pharmacy & Compounding in Texas
  • Names its clinician network, OpenLoop Health, and offers 1:1 physician guidance, a coaching team, 24/7 support and a patient portal

The caveats

  • The $99 headline is a first-month sale; from the second month compounded semaglutide is $199
  • Brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound cost a $99 membership plus a medication price the page does not show, even though the same page says "No membership or hidden fees"
  • No compounded tirzepatide; tirzepatide is available only as brand-name Zepbound
  • No list of states, and cancellation needs 72 hours' notice before the next billing date, with no refund once a month starts

ElixaMD, answered

Is ElixaMD legit?

ElixaMD names who is behind the care: prescriptions come from the OpenLoop Health clinician network, and medication is dispensed by three named pharmacies (Triad Rx, RedRock Pharmacy and Beaker Pharmacy & Compounding) whose addresses and phone numbers are printed on its site. It publishes terms, a refund policy and privacy notices. Its main gaps are that it lists no states and does not show the medication price for its brand-name options.

How much does ElixaMD cost?

Compounded semaglutide is $99 for the first month and then $199 a month for refills, with no contract; the price includes the physician review, coaching and the medication. Brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound are a $99 membership plus a medication cost the page does not show.

What medication does ElixaMD prescribe?

Compounded semaglutide, plus brand-name Wegovy (pill or injection) and Zepbound. It does not offer compounded tirzepatide. The site says compounded medications are not FDA-approved.

Can I cancel ElixaMD?

Yes, any time, by emailing customer support or through the portal chat. The request must arrive at least 72 hours before your next billing date, a month already billed is not refunded, and a full refund applies only within the first 72 hours if no services were delivered or if a clinician disqualifies you.

Pricing & state data come from ElixaMD's public site and our master provider matrix. The Match Score and its sub-scores are our editorial judgment per the methodology. Commercial facts only — prices change, so confirm on ElixaMD's site. Not medical advice; see our disclosure.

Verdict · Grade C · 70/100

Is ElixaMD legit? On the evidence of its own site, yes: prescribing runs through the OpenLoop Health clinician network, named on the site, and medication ships from three named pharmacies with addresses and phone numbers printed. On price it has improved. The compounded semaglutide program is $99 for the first month and then $199 a month, with no contract, and that covers the physician review, coaching and the medication. It now also offers brand-name Wegovy, as a pill or an injection, and Zepbound, but those are sold as a $99 membership plus a medication cost it does not print, which sits awkwardly next to its own "no membership" banner. There is no compounded tirzepatide, no state list, and canceling needs 72 hours' notice before the next bill. If you want compounded semaglutide with coaching at a flat monthly price, ElixaMD is a reasonable choice; for the brand-name drugs, get the full monthly cost in writing first.
