EllieMD, answered

Is EllieMD legit?

EllieMD is a real, operating GLP-1 telehealth program. LegitScript certification is the third-party check worth asking for — look for the seal on their site and confirm your prescriber is US-licensed at intake. Like most programs here it dispenses compounded GLP-1s, which are made by a licensed pharmacy but aren't FDA-approved.

How much does EllieMD cost?

EllieMD lists compounded semaglutide from $325/mo and tirzepatide from $325/mo — above our category median of $199/mo. These are the provider's public figures at our last review (August 2026); confirm on their site, since some teaser tiers step up after month one.

Does EllieMD ship to my state?

EllieMD doesn't publish a full state list, so confirm your state is covered during intake before you pay.

EllieMD vs Kova — which should I pick?

They score within a few points of each other: EllieMD at 46/100 and Kova at 46/100, so neither wins on the headline number. EllieMD is the better fit for people who want mainstream telehealth GLP-1 access. Kova suits people who want a GLP-1 plan bundled with a tracking app and will pay a premium for it. Run the quiz and the weighting shifts to whichever of those matters more to you.

Pricing & state data last verified August 2026 from EllieMD'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 EllieMD's site. Not medical advice; see our disclosure.

Verdict · Grade C · 46/100

Semaglutide here is $325/mo — $126 above our category median of $199. Tirzepatide is $325/mo. It scores highest on the care that comes after the first vial. It does sit near the bottom of our 537, though. Best suited to people who want mainstream telehealth GLP-1 access. If that is not you, Kova is the closest thing to it here.
