The factor breakdown
HeliMeds on the six Match Score factors — the same sub-scores the quiz reweights to your priorities. See the methodology.
Semaglutide refills are $225 a month, in the $201–225 band, so Budget Fit is 50; the first order is $50 less.
A five-minute survey and every state except California and Alaska, but orders take two to three business days to process and 4 to 12 days to arrive.
Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide plus brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound, and sermorelin; no tablet option.
A named physician through Beluga Health and one-on-one support, but only by text.
No subscription and no automatic billing: you order one or three months at a time, though fees are non-refundable.
First-order and refill prices, the pharmacy, the medical provider and the excluded states are all published.

What we found on their site
Read on HeliMeds's own website in October 2026. Quoted text is theirs.
- The semaglutide page says "The 1-month plan costs $175 for your first order and $225 per refill order."
- The tirzepatide page says "The 1-month plan costs $235 for your first order and $285 per refill order."
- Both pages add: "This is not a subscription service. You will only be charged once for the selected treatment plan."
- The terms state "We are currently servicing every state except California and Alaska" and name the pharmacy "GoGoMeds" and the provider "Beluga Health".
What we like
- Clear refill prices: $225 a month for compounded semaglutide and $285 for tirzepatide, with lower prices on a three-month order
- Not a subscription: each order is a one-time charge, with no automatic billing and no long-term contract
- Brand-name Wegovy ($1,599) and Zepbound ($1,396) are available for a four-week supply paid up front
- Names its pharmacy, GoGoMeds in Southgate, Kentucky, and its medical provider, Beluga Health with Dr. Jonah Mink
- Serves every state except California and Alaska, with free shipping
The caveats
- The first order is $50 less than every refill, so the lower semaglutide price of $175 and the $199 tirzepatide headline do not last
- Support is text-only, with no video or phone visit described
- Shipping can take a while: orders are processed in two to three business days, then take 4 to 12 business days on average
- Fees are non-refundable under its terms, and a three-month order arrives as a single vial
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved, and there is no tablet option
