The best GLP-1 programmes

One table, every provider, the same rubric applied to all of them — compounded and branded, cheap and expensive.

Because the rubric weights true monthly cost most heavily, the cheap end does well here. But price honesty, clinical support, pharmacy sourcing and cancellation terms all count, which is why the very cheapest option is not automatically top.

How we decided what belongs here

• Every provider offering tirzepatide, compounded or branded.
• Scored on the published weighted rubric.
• No minimum price or feature requirement — this is the full field.

23 of the 23 providers we track qualify. Prices checked 2026-09-18 and re-checked periodically.

Questions people ask us

Is the top-ranked programme the cheapest?

Not necessarily. Our featured partner is pinned to first place as a paid placement, and the methodology page names every provider that scores higher or charges less.

How often is this updated?

Pricing is re-verified periodically and every review carries the date it was last checked. This market re-prices without notice.

Before you choose on price

Worth knowing before you start: the approved oral options avoid injections entirely and start around $149, and if you are on Medicare the $50 programme begins in July 2026.

In SURMOUNT-1, adults with obesity lost an average of 19.5% of body weight on 10 mg and 20.9% on 15 mg over 72 weeks. That figure comes from a controlled trial of the active ingredient, not from any particular seller's product.
