Budget-friendly GLP-1 platform offering both medication types at one of the lowest price points in the market.

MEDGm

#53 of 53

2.7/10

MEDGm is a telehealth company selling compounded GLP-1 injections from $179/mo and dissolvable tablets from $249/mo, with brand-name Zepbound, Wegovy and Ozempic offered as a membership plus an unpublished medication cost. The compounded prices are readable before intake and the not-FDA-approved disclosure is prominent, which is more than several better-known programs manage. The gap is verification: no clinician, no pharmacy and no accreditation is named anywhere on the site or in its terms.

Pros & Cons Compared

bmiMD

Pros

+80,000+ customer base with a 4.3-star Trustpilot rating (600+ reviews) provides real social proof of reliability
+100% money-back guarantee if your consultation determines you don't qualify for GLP-1 treatment
+HSA/FSA accepted for all programs

Cons

−Standard semaglutide pricing is $289/mo, above competitors at $99-199/mo; the TAKEOFF 3-month entry (about $99/mo first month) and annual plans from $99/mo bring the effective rate down
−$29.99 shipping fee per order where most competitors ship free; factor it into your monthly total

MEDGm

+Claims no accreditation it cannot support, which is rarer than it should be

Cons

−No medical director, prescribing clinician or medical group is named anywhere

−Brand-name Zepbound, Wegovy and Ozempic are priced as a membership plus an unpublished medication cost, so no brand total can be compared
−No lab panel is offered or required at any tier
−The homepage claims 120,000+ patients on a domain registered 2026-04-08; we could not reconcile the two
−A prepaid contracted term is non-refundable, and dispensed medication is never refundable
−No third-party rating exists that we could locate and verify

Cheapest complete recurring price in our index

Eden Health GLP-1

$99/mo month-to-month, from $34 on a plan · 6.9/10 · Both

Both bmiMD and MEDGm start above the cheapest complete recurring program we track. Across all 53 providers in our index, the lowest price with affirmative medication, consultation, and shipping inclusion is Eden Health GLP-1 at $99/mo, price checked August 28, 2026. It scores 6.9/10 and is not the highest-scored provider in our full rankings, so this is a cost floor rather than a recommendation. Worth knowing before you decide.
