Confirm cancellation, renewal and unused-prepayment terms for the exact weight-loss plan before paying.

Maximus Pros and Cons

What sets it apart: Compounded and brand-name options alongside men's health protocols, with dose-independent compounded plan pricing and separate lab costs.

What we like

Compounded tirzepatide has two-, four-, six- and twelve-month prepaid choices, with shipping and clinical oversight included
Compounded plans are flat rate across every dose, so titrating up does not reprice your plan
Maximus adds glycine and B12 to its compounded semaglutide, described on the site as a way to further customize and tailor the medication; it cites no clinical evidence for the combination
Free expedited shipping on all medication orders

What could be better

The current tirzepatide product page and help center have different price schedules. Confirm the selected upfront bill and renewal; required labs cost extra
The fulfilling pharmacies are named only as initials in the help center, EVR, FCC or VIOS by state for compounded medication and The Pharmacy Hub for brand-name, and not on the product pages a shopper actually reads
Brand-name plans are priced by dose tier, so titrating up can move you to a higher monthly rate; compounded plans stay flat across all doses
FDA warning letter #730095, issued June 8, 2026, cites false or misleading compounded-GLP-1 marketing claims. It is a marketing/misbranding record, not an unsafe-medication finding

Questions about Maximus

What does Maximus's $149.99 price buy?

The tirzepatide product page, checked October 10, 2026, lists $149.99 per month equivalent for a twelve-month prepaid plan, not a $149.99 month-to-month purchase.

Shorter prepaid terms have higher monthly equivalents. It describes full-term upfront billing, two-month shipments and renewal at the same rate. Required labs are extra; confirm the full bill and cancellation terms.

Why do Maximus pages show different prices?

Its current tirzepatide product page lists $249.99/month equivalent for two months, $219.99 for four, $199.99 for six and $149.99 for twelve.

The help center still lists $259.99 for the first monthly tirzepatide cycle then $359.99, with different prepaid rates. We cannot establish that both schedules remain available. The help center separately lists monthly semaglutide at $149.99 first cycle then $249.99. Confirm the product and plan on your written quote rather than combining these offers.

What costs sit on top of the plan?

Required lab work is billed separately.

Clinical oversight, medication, shipping and questionnaire check-ins are included in the published compounded plan prices. The help center says California compounded semaglutide adds $50 per shipment. Multi-month plans are paid in full upfront; every-two-month shipping is not an installment plan.

Did Maximus receive an FDA warning letter?

Yes. FDA warning letter #730095 was issued June 8, 2026 to Maximus Health, Inc. dba Maximus.

FDA cited false or misleading website claims for compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide that rendered the products misbranded. The letter concerns marketing; it does not allege that medication was unsafe.

What do verified reviews say about Maximus?

Maximus has 4.4 out of 5 from 1,083 reviews on Trustpilot, and the BBB rates it B- (not accredited).

We read each rating on the platform itself, not in Maximus's own marketing, and we show every platform even when they disagree.

Which GLP-1 medications does Maximus prescribe?

Maximus lists 8 options: Semaglutide (compounded; ask whether a 0.1mg microdose plan is current); Tirzepatide (compounded); Semaglutide + glycine + B12 (Maximus describes the additive as a way to further customize and tailor the medication; no nausea benefit is claimed on the site and no Maximus-specific trial evidence was found); Foundayo (brand-name orforglipron tablets, from $199.99/mo, verified 2026-08-28); Wegovy (brand-name tablets from $249.99/mo and pens from $349.99/mo, verified 2026-08-28); Ozempic (brand-name injection, from $349.99/mo, verified 2026-08-28); Zepbound (brand-name injection, from $449.99/mo, verified 2026-08-28); Mounjaro (brand-name injection, from $1,249.99/mo, verified 2026-08-28).

Compounded medicines are not FDA-approved. A pharmacy prepares them for each patient.

Can I cancel Maximus, and what are the terms?

The published terms make prescription sales final.

Their no-early-termination language for committed plans is explicitly under the Testosterone Protocol section; the October 8, 2026 review did not confirm it applies to GLP-1 plans. Confirm cancellation, renewal and unused-prepayment terms for the exact weight-loss plan before paying. Cancel a few days before your next billing date, not on it, and keep the written confirmation.

Does Maximus take insurance?

No. Maximus is cash pay only, so nothing is billed to a plan.
