First month: $147 for compounded semaglutide injection, then $247 every 28 days. Compounded tirzepatide injection costs $249 for the first month, then $349 every 28 days. Medication, the initial consultation and shipping are included, and the price is the same at every dose (wellorithm.com/pricing, checked 2026-10-16). Four weeks is not a calendar month, so you pay 13 times a year.

We checked Wellorithm's prices on October 16, 2026.

Willow

A compounded program with separate semaglutide and tirzepatide dissolving tablets, plus a combination tablet. The format choice may suit a reader who wants to discuss needle-free treatment with a clinician; it does not establish equivalence to an approved pill or injection.

  • Compounded Semaglutide (injectable)$299Covers medication, consultations, shipping and dose adjustments. $299/mo holds to 3.5 mg, then $399/mo at 7 mg on the help center pricing article, verified 2026-09-03
  • Compounded Semaglutide (oral tablet, daily)$299Compounded daily dissolving tablet, $299/mo for all listed dosages in Willow's current help center price schedule. This is distinct from the injection's dose ladder and is not FDA-approved Wegovy. Price checked September 26, 2026.

All 5 Willow plans
How Willow bills

What to watch for with Wellorithm and Willow

Wellorithm

  • Founding year, corporate ownership and the legal entity behind the program are not published on wellorithm.com; the Terms describe it only as 'a Miami-based company' that connects patients with unnamed 'Professional Entities' (verified 2026-09-03). The site names clinicians and a Miami contact address, but the October 8, 2026 review did not verify which named clinician oversees this GLP-1 program or their program-specific role
  • After the first month you pay $247 every 28 days for semaglutide or $349 for tirzepatide, 13 charges a year, so the $147 and $249 first payments are not the ongoing price
Wellorithm's strengths, cautions and terms

Strengths

  • One price at every dose: the pricing page states the medication price is the same across the semaglutide range of 0.25 to 2.4 mg and the tirzepatide range of 2.5 to 15 mg (checked October 16, 2026)
  • 10% weight-loss money-back guarantee: patients who don't lose at least 10% of baseline weight after 16 weeks of medication adherence may be eligible for refund of up to four months of program fees (verified weight documentation required)
  • The pricing page shows your first payment and your renewal side by side: $147 then $247 every 28 days for semaglutide, $249 then $349 for tirzepatide, with the consultation and shipping included
  • Short online eligibility quiz, virtual consultation, 24/7 support availability claimed
  • 23,000+ reviews and 4.9-star rating reported (volume is unusually high for this market segment, verify on independent third-party sources before relying on it)
  • Free, discreet shipping is included in every 28-day payment

More to watch for

  • Billing runs on a 28-day recurring cycle and payments are non-refundable once processed, with no proration for partial months; cancel before your next cycle processes to avoid paying for an unused month
  • The weight-loss guarantee has strict eligibility terms: verified weight documentation (doctor attestation or video evidence), prior medication history disclosure, consistent dosing adherence, and refund processed within 30 days of approval, with only fees actually paid refundable and baseline payments non-refundable; document your starting weight from day one if you plan to rely on it
  • The historical Ozempic and Zepbound pages showed $1,119 in the hero and $1,199 in a pricing card, alongside an internally inconsistent plan footnote. Neither that footnote nor the conflicting prices establishes a valid dose or total bill. Obtain the exact medication, dose, term and upfront charge before paying

Willow

  • The reviewed catalogue lists compounded products; a current brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound offer did not appear there
  • Both headline prices are starting prices. Tirzepatide starts at $399/mo against $299 for semaglutide, and on the help center pricing article maintenance tirzepatide injections run $499/mo from 8.5 mg, $524/mo at 13.5 mg and $549/mo at 17 mg (checked 2026-09-03)
Willow's strengths, cautions and terms

Strengths

  • Includes monthly provider check-ins and dose adjustments at no extra cost
  • Compounded daily dissolving tablets for semaglutide and tirzepatide, offering a needle-free format to discuss with the prescriber
  • $299/mo covers compounded semaglutide at the starting doses, injectable or tablet, with monthly provider support and no separate consultation fee
  • A US licensed doctor reviews and confirms the prescription the same day, and two-day shipping is free, both stated on the product pages (verified 2026-09-03)

More to watch for

  • Willow does not bill insurance and says HSA/FSA cards are accepted. Its help center discusses submitting receipts for reimbursement, but its terms and consent say users will not submit insurance claims. Those statements conflict; get written clarification before relying on reimbursement (sources accessed October 8, 2026)
  • The program auto-renews. Its FAQ and policies differ between two business days before processing and two calendar days before processing or shipping. Refunds also depend on whether the prescription has reached the pharmacy. Confirm the applicable deadline and current-order limits in writing (sources accessed October 8, 2026)

Cancellation
Request cancellation through the care team. The FAQ and policies differ between two business days before processing and two calendar days before processing or shipping. The FAQ offers a refund before the prescription reaches the pharmacy; later orders have narrower limits. Confirm the applicable cutoff, any charges and refund eligibility in writing before paying (sources accessed October 8, 2026).
