What we like

  • Public pricing across 3 SKUs (semaglutide $299, tirzepatide $359, oral GLP-1 $349) — uncommon in compounded telehealth
  • First-month promo pricing shown upfront ($139 sema / $199 tirz / $189 oral)
  • Single monthly price includes consult, prescription, 4 weeks of medication, and free 1–2 day shipping
  • FSA/HSA eligible
  • Three options under one roof: injectable sema, injectable tirz, and an oral GLP-1

The caveats

  • Oral GLP-1 SKU doesn't name the specific drug — a real gap given Rybelsus, Foundayo, and compounded oral semaglutide differ clinically
  • No LegitScript or NABP.pharmacy seal displayed
  • No legal entity name disclosed
  • No physical address disclosed
  • Compounding pharmacy partner not named

Who it's for — and who should skip it

Velvet Rx, answered

Is Velvet Rx legit?

Velvet Rx 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 Velvet Rx cost?

Velvet Rx lists compounded semaglutide from $325/mo and tirzepatide from $283/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 Velvet Rx ship to my state?

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

Velvet Rx vs SkinnyRx — which should I pick?

They score within a few points of each other: Velvet Rx at 62/100 and SkinnyRx at 64/100, so neither wins on the headline number. Velvet Rx is the better fit for people who want cash-pay compounded GLP-1 with bundled shipping across three SKUs. SkinnyRx suits shoppers who want a tablet as well as an injection on either molecule, and who read the term attached to an advertised rate before they read the number. Run the quiz and the weighting shifts to whichever of those matters more to you.

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

Verdict · Grade C · 62/100

Semaglutide here is $325/mo — $126 above our category median of $199. Tirzepatide is $283/mo. It scores highest on the care that comes after the first vial. Best suited to people who want cash-pay compounded GLP-1 with bundled shipping across three SKUs. If that is not you, SkinnyRx is the closest thing to it here.
