SkinnyRx review
Tirzepatide priced, semaglutide not
Injectable tirzepatide carries a published standing rate of $299 a month, while injectable semaglutide is advertised only as $99 for the first month.
Our verdict
SkinnyRx has stopped quoting discounted-looking figures and started publishing plan ladders, and the two halves of its catalog are now disclosed very differently. Tirzepatide is priced in full before any intake: $99 for the first month, then $299 on a one-month plan, falling to $225 if twelve months are committed. Injectable semaglutide gets the same $99 opening figure and no published rate after it, so the product with the lower entry price is the one whose real cost is unknown. Ask for the semaglutide standing rate before paying the $99.

What it is
A telehealth weight-loss service selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide by weekly injection, sublingual drops and daily tablets, with free overnight shipping, a microdose option and branded Ozempic alongside.
How it works
Prescription-gated telehealth sold on plan terms. Committing to a longer term lowers the monthly figure, and the refund policy states that discounts may be reversed or proportionally adjusted if a promotional or committed term is canceled early.
Pricing transparency
Injectable tirzepatide is $99 for the first month, then $299 a month on a one-month plan, $289 on four months, $250 on six and $225 on twelve. Tirzepatide tablets run the same $225 to $299 ladder from a $199 first month, with a three-month tier in place of the four. Sublingual semaglutide is quoted as low as $199 a month. The semaglutide injection and the semaglutide tablets are advertised only as first-month figures, $99 and $149, with nothing published for the months after. Branded Ozempic is listed at $1,400 a month.
Branded vs compounded
Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, injectable, sublingual and in tablet form, with a microdose option, plus branded Ozempic. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and are not reviewed by the FDA for safety, efficacy or quality before dispensing, and a microdose protocol is not the schedule any published trial used. The dispensing pharmacies are described only as 503A, never named.
FDA warning letter on record
The FDA issued a warning letter naming Lean Rx, Inc. dba SkinnyRx.
- Letter 717989, issued February 20, 2026 — read it on fda.gov
We publish this because it is a matter of public record and a reader weighing this provider should have it. A warning letter is the FDA setting out alleged violations; it is not a court finding, and a company may have responded or corrected since. It does not remove SkinnyRx from our rankings, and it does not change our verdict — read the letter and decide for yourself.

SkinnyRx, head to head
Each of these sets SkinnyRx against one seller a reader is realistically choosing between, on what a month actually costs.
- SkinnyRx vs Bodybuilding Health+Bodybuilding Health+ is $90 a month under SkinnyRx on injectable tirzepatide, and stays under it at every plan length either one publishes.
- SkinnyRx vs Synergy RxSkinnyRx's $199 sublingual semaglutide quote is not its tablet price. Comparing oral options requires checking the preparation as well as the recurring charge.

Frequently asked
- What does SkinnyRx cost after the first month?
- For injectable tirzepatide it is stated: $299 a month on a one-month plan, $289 on four, $250 on six and $225 on twelve. For injectable semaglutide it is not stated anywhere on the product page. The only semaglutide injection figure published is the $99 first month.
- Is $99 a standing price at SkinnyRx?
- No. It is labeled a first-month figure on both injections, and on tirzepatide the page shows the rate that follows it. On semaglutide nothing follows it, which makes $99 an opening number rather than a rate to plan a year around. Twelve months of tirzepatide at the one-month rate would be $3,388.
- What is the microdose option?
- A protocol using doses below the standard escalation schedule, offered on both injections and on the tirzepatide tablet. No published trial covers it — STEP 1 and SURMOUNT-1 reported their results at full titrated doses — so ask what strength you would actually receive.
- Is the oral cheaper than the injection at SkinnyRx?
- Sublingual semaglutide is quoted as low as $199 a month, which is an ongoing rate rather than an opening one. The semaglutide injection is quoted only at $99 for a first month, so the two cannot be compared directly. Tirzepatide tablets and the tirzepatide injection run the same $225 to $299 ladder, so route makes no difference there.
- Is SkinnyRx legit?
- FDA issued warning letter 717989 to Lean Rx, Inc. dba SkinnyRx on February 20, 2026. The letter is linked on this page. A warning letter sets out alleged violations; it is not a court finding. Read the linked record before deciding. SkinnyRx is a GLP-1 telehealth service. It displays a LegitScript certification claim, which we record as a claim and not as a verified fact: LegitScript's public checker is gated and returns the same page for any domain put into it, so no one can reproduce a check from it. Before you pay, confirm which states it serves, whether it bills insurance and how its intake works in writing for your selected treatment.
- Is SkinnyRx expensive compared with other GLP-1 providers?
- SkinnyRx is listed from $199/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 SkinnyRx 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.
