DrBrainRx review
Care fee charged separately
$199 buys a month of semaglutide, and a required $25 Care Access plan is charged on top of it every month.
Our verdict
DrBrainRx prices its medication flat: $199 for semaglutide and $299 for tirzepatide, unchanged at every dose on the ladder. Sitting outside both figures is Care Access, a $25 monthly plan the product pages state is required. That makes the real monthly floor $224 and $324, and no headline on either page shows those numbers. The weekly dose ranges are published, which much of this category will not do, and the compounding pharmacy is not named.

What it is
A neurologist-led telehealth seller offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide vials, priced flat across every dose, with prescribing limited to 21 states.
How it works
An online intake and physician review, after which medication ships from a licensed compounding pharmacy. Care Access, billed at $25 a month, covers dosing changes, side-effect management and refill access, and is the only automatic recurring charge. On the Monthly Flex plan the medication itself is billed only when a refill is requested.
Pricing transparency
Semaglutide is $199 a month, $495 for three months ($165 a month) and $774 for six ($129 a month). Tirzepatide is $299, $807 for three months ($269) and $1,494 for six ($249). Every one of those figures excludes the $25 monthly Care Access plan, which the product pages state is required. Adding it makes a month of semaglutide $224 and a month of tirzepatide $324.
Branded vs compounded
Compounded semaglutide at 0.25 to 2.5 mg a week and compounded tirzepatide at 2.5 to 15 mg a week. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and are not reviewed by the FDA for safety, efficacy or quality before dispensing. The pharmacy is described only as one following USP standards, with COA-backed sterility and potency testing, and is never named.

Frequently asked
- What does DrBrainRx actually cost each month?
- $199 for semaglutide or $299 for tirzepatide, plus the $25 Care Access plan the product pages state is required. That puts a real month at $224 and $324. Prepaying three or six months lowers the medication portion but not the care fee.
- Does the price rise as the dose goes up?
- No. Both product pages state the monthly price is the same for all doses and does not increase as the dose goes up. Semaglutide runs 0.25 to 2.5 mg a week and tirzepatide 2.5 to 15 mg, all at the one rate.
- Is the Care Access plan optional?
- The product pages state that an active Care Access plan is required and costs $25 a month. It can be canceled at any time with no cancellation fee, and it is the only charge that recurs automatically. Canceling it ends access to dose adjustments and refills.
- Which states can DrBrainRx prescribe in?
- Twenty-one: CA, FL, KY, ME, MA, MI, MN, MT, NV, NH, NY, OH, RI, SC, TX, UT, WY, CO, NC, IN and NE. A patient must be physically located in one of them at the time of prescribing. Once prescribed, medication can ship to all 50 states.
- Is DrBrainRx legit?
- DrBrainRx is a GLP-1 telehealth service. Its stated availability: 21 prescribing states. Before you pay, confirm whether it bills insurance and how its intake works in writing for your selected treatment.

- DrBrainRx is listed from $224/mo in this comparison. The 387 reviewed GLP-1 providers with a listed monthly starting amount range from $76 to $1299, with a median of $179. That puts DrBrainRx above the median. The comparison excludes 192 other reviewed GLP-1 providers. Medicines, doses and payment commitments differ. Confirm the medication, renewal charge and included visits, supplies and delivery before deciding.
