Provider review
MadeMed review
It publishes the price at every dose, so month six holds no surprises.
Every dose from the smallest starting one to the top is priced on the page before you sign up.
Price, exactly as they publish it
Compounded semaglutide $239/mo billed quarterly ($717 per three months), or from $199/mo on a six-month plan — the same price at every dose from 0.25mg to 2.4mg
Semaglutide is prescription-only and compounded semaglutide is not the FDA-approved brand product — decide with a clinician. Prices are as the provider published them when we last checked; confirm current terms before you buy.
How Semawise makes money (plainly)
Here's the honest version: some of the links on this site are affiliate links, routed through the Katalys network. Click one and go on to start a treatment or buy something, and we may earn a commission — without costing you a single penny more. That's what keeps the lights on and the answers free. The part that matters: a commission never buys a softer review, a different price, or kinder pros and cons. What it does buy is position — affiliate partners are listed ahead of providers we have no relationship with, and we say so on each board rather than only here. Want the longer version? It's all in our full disclosure.
The verdict
MadeMed's distinguishing habit is publishing the price at every single dose, from the smallest starting dose to the highest, so what your eventual maintenance dose costs is knowable on day one instead of a surprise in month six. It is LegitScript verified, a board-certified physician reviews the intake, oral semaglutide sits beside the injection, and if you are not prescribed you are refunded everything except a stated visit fee. It is also well above the cheapest compounders here, it serves forty states rather than the whole country, and it ships one vial every two months, which is a stiffer cadence than a monthly refill.
The trade-off we'd want you to read first
At $239/mo quarterly it is well above the cheapest compounders here
Who it suits, and who it doesn't
A good fit if
- You want to know today what your maintenance dose will cost, not just what your first dose costs
- You want a needle-free oral option from an independently verified compounder
- You want the refund terms stated before you pay rather than discovered afterwards
Look elsewhere if
- You are shopping on price, because this sits well above the cheapest compounded rows on the board
- You live outside the forty states it serves rather than somewhere covered nationwide
- You would rather receive medication every month than a single vial every other month
How the programme actually works
LegitScript-verified compounded telehealth whose distinguishing feature is that it publishes the price at every dose — 0.25mg through 2.4mg all cost the same — so the cost of the dose you eventually titrate to is knowable on day one. A board-certified physician reviews the intake, medication ships overnight with injection supplies included, and if you are not prescribed you are refunded everything except a $39 physician-visit fee, stated before checkout. Oral semaglutide is offered alongside the injection.

What it does well
- One flat price at every dose, published dose by dose from 0.25mg to 2.4mg
- LegitScript verified, with board-certified physician review and US compounding pharmacies
- Refund of everything but a $39 visit fee if you are not prescribed — stated up front

The other trade-offs
- Compounded, not the brand-name product (Wegovy/Ozempic)
- Available in 40 states rather than nationwide
- Ships one vial every two months, a less flexible cadence than a monthly refill
If this one isn't it
If MadeMed is not it, these are not our favourites and they are not the ones that pay the most — each is the provider closest to this one that does better on the axis this one does worst on. The axis is named on every card, with both providers’ own published wording underneath, so you can check the claim rather than take it.

Before you buy
Semaglutide is a prescription medicine, and the compounded version is not the same regulated product as brand-name Wegovy or Ozempic. Whatever you decide, decide it with a clinician who knows your history — and go into that conversation with real numbers.
Where this sits on the board
MadeMed is one of 27 telehealth semaglutide programmes we track. The board puts every published price on one screen, ordered with the companies that pay us first — a mechanism we state there, on the page it applies to, rather than only in the small print.
