Direct Meds review
Priced by the pack
$297 for semaglutide and $399 for tirzepatide, quoted on multi-month packs and framed as a cost per day.
Our verdict
These sit well above where this market typically prices compounded semaglutide, and the presentation makes that harder to see than it should be. Both are pack prices rather than single months, and the per-day framing alongside them is the same number divided, not a smaller one. If you convert everything to a standing monthly rate before comparing — which is the only way to compare — Direct Meds sits at the expensive end.

What it is
A telehealth pharmacy storefront selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, by injection and as oral preparations, in multi-month supply packs.
How it works
Prescription-gated, with the offer built around buying a block of treatment at once — 84- and 90-day supplies rather than a rolling month.
Pricing transparency
Injectable semaglutide $297 and tirzepatide $399; the orals are $249 and $299. Each is quoted “as low as”, on a multi-month pack, with a per-day figure shown next to it.
Branded vs compounded
Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and are not reviewed by the FDA for safety, efficacy or quality before dispensing.
Pros and watch-outs
What we like
- Figures published rather than gated behind an intake
- Both molecules in both routes
- Oral semaglutide at $249 undercuts its own injection
- Buying a block removes the monthly re-order decision
Watch-outs
- Priced well above the typical figure in this category
- Prices are pack rates, not monthly rates
- Per-day framing makes a large number look small
- The state list is not published
Best for
Buyers who prefer to pay for a quarter at once and are not shopping on price.
Who should look elsewhere
Anyone comparing standing monthly rates, where this sits at the expensive end.

Frequently asked
- How much does Direct Meds cost per month?
- The published figures — $297 for injectable semaglutide and $399 for tirzepatide — are quoted against multi-month packs rather than a single month, so read the pack length on the page before treating either as a monthly rate.
- Is the per-day price at Direct Meds a better deal?
- No. A per-day figure is the same pack price divided by the number of days in it. It is a presentation choice, not a discount, and it is the reason a high price can read as a low one.
- Is Direct Meds expensive?
- Yes. Compounded semaglutide across this market commonly runs well below $297, and plenty of published figures sit under $150.
- Which states does Direct Meds serve?
- Direct Meds does not publish a state list, which is worth confirming before starting an intake.
- Is Direct Meds expensive compared with other GLP-1 sellers by price providers?
- Direct Meds publishes a starting figure of $249/mo. Across the 59 GLP-1 sellers by price providers we review that publish a single monthly figure, those run $79 to $369 with a median of $150, which puts Direct Meds above the median. The other 1 GLP-1 sellers by price providers we review quote only after an intake or price by dose, so they are not in that comparison. A starting figure is not a bill — labs, consultations and shipping are often charged separately, so confirm what your own quote includes.
