Best for: People who value a named medical director and round-the-clock messaging, and who are comfortable committing to a fixed plan term.

MatchScript's take: Strong support and a named medical director, but you can't see the real monthly price up front and the plan terms are hard to exit.

The factor breakdown

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

Budget Fit44/100

No standing monthly price is published, only $39 and $75 first months, so Budget Fit sits below the unpriced level of 48, at 44.

Speed to Start64/100

A two-minute online assessment and shipping within days of approval, but the states served are not published.

Formulary Match66/100

Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injections plus NAD+; no tablet and no brand-name medication.

Support Level80/100

A named, board-certified medical director, 24/7 portal messaging, a seven-day phone line and included check-ins.

Flexibility35/100

Its terms make every plan a fixed-term, non-cancelable commitment, and canceling otherwise costs $100.

Transparency40/100

Only first-month prices are shown, and the states served and the pharmacy are not named.

What we found on their site

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

  • The semaglutide page reads "MONTHLY, 3, 6, AND 12 MONTH OPTIONS AVAILABLE" above "as low as $39 first month", with no later monthly figure shown.
  • The membership terms state "Each Membership plan requires a fixed-term financial commitment" and "Membership plans are non-cancelable and non-refundable."
  • The homepage introduces "Dr. Teresa Walsh, M.D." as "LumiMeds' Medical Director, overseeing all clinical protocols".

What we like

  • A named medical director, Dr. Teresa Walsh, who is board certified in obesity medicine, oversees clinical protocols
  • You can message your care team any time through the patient portal, and a phone line runs seven days a week
  • Medication, provider check-ins and temperature-controlled shipping are included, with no membership fee and no upcharge as your dose rises
  • A full refund if a provider decides treatment is not right for you
  • FSA and HSA payments and Klarna installments are accepted

The caveats

  • Only first-month prices are published, $39 for semaglutide and $75 for tirzepatide; what you pay from month two is shown only after the intake
  • Its membership terms say every plan is a fixed-term commitment that is non-cancelable and non-refundable, despite a "Cancel Anytime" badge on the site
  • Canceling for any reason other than a provider declining you costs a $100 cancellation fee
  • The states served and the dispensing pharmacy are not named
  • FDA issued Lumimeds a warning letter in September 2025; the letter is public in FDA's warning-letter database

LumiMeds, answered

What does LumiMeds prescribe?

Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide, both as weekly injections, plus NAD+ injections. Compounded medications are made by a state-licensed pharmacy and are not FDA-approved.

How much does LumiMeds cost?

The site publishes only first-month prices: $39 for semaglutide and $75 for tirzepatide. Monthly, 3-, 6- and 12-month plans exist, but the ongoing price is shown only after the intake, so get the full plan cost before you pay.

Can I cancel LumiMeds any time?

Not freely. Its membership terms describe every plan as a fixed-term commitment that is non-cancelable and non-refundable, and canceling for any reason other than a provider declining you costs a $100 fee, despite a "Cancel Anytime" badge on the site.

Has LumiMeds received an FDA warning letter?

Yes. FDA issued Lumimeds a warning letter in September 2025; the letter is public in FDA's warning-letter database.

Verdict · Grade C · 54/100

LumiMeds prescribes compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injections through independent providers, overseen by a named medical director, Dr. Teresa Walsh. Support is a real strength: portal messaging at any hour, a phone line seven days a week, check-ins and dose changes included, and no upcharge as your dose rises. The pricing is the problem. The site shows only first-month rates, $39 for semaglutide and $75 for tirzepatide, and the ongoing monthly charge appears only after you complete the intake. Its membership terms describe every plan as a fixed-term commitment that cannot be canceled or refunded, despite a "Cancel Anytime" badge, and canceling otherwise costs $100. The states served and the pharmacy are not named, and FDA issued Lumimeds a warning letter in September 2025. Bottom line: well supported, but find out the full plan cost and term before you pay.
