Is MEDVi worth it? The short answer
Our verdict
If you want to try compounded semaglutide without a big first bill, MEDVi starts low, then settles at one refill price it says is locked in. Review, medication and shipping are included. Budget from the refill price, not the first month, and cancel 72 hours before renewal, since the month you cancel in is not refunded.
- Good for: You want a cheaper first month to see how you handle the medication before paying the full rate
- Look elsewhere if: You need to know your state is covered before you sign up, since the list is only available from support

FDA warning letter
The FDA issued a warning letter to MEDVi, LLC dba MEDVi in February 2026. It is on the public record in the FDA's warning-letter database, which we link rather than summarize. FDA warning-letter database ↗
What it does well, and what to watch
What we like
- After the first month, the compounded injection has one published refill figure, and MEDVi says it is locked in
- Names three partner pharmacies, each with a street address and phone number, on the program page
- Brand-name Wegovy, the Wegovy pill and Zepbound are available on a membership if you would rather have the FDA-approved product
- The compounded program price covers the provider review, the medication and shipping, with no separate membership fee
What to watch
- The first month is discounted: refills cost about twice as much, so budget from the second month's figure
- It names three partner pharmacies but not which one fills a given order, and no 503A or 503B class is stated for any of them. Ask support before your first order if that matters to you
- No refund for the month you cancel in: money comes back only within the first 72 hours if no service was given, or if a provider disqualifies you
- Cancellation needs 72 hours' notice before the next billing date, or the next cycle is charged
Who MEDVi suits, and who should look elsewhere
A good fit if
- You want a cheaper first month to see how you handle the medication before paying the full rate
- You like knowing the refill price will not move once you are settled on a plan
- You might want brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound later and would rather stay with one company
Look elsewhere if
- You need to know your state is covered before you sign up, since the list is only available from support
- You want money back if you change your mind partway through a month
- You were counting on insurance, because every plan here is cash-pay
How MEDVi works, start to finish
MEDVi, LLC, based in Newark, Delaware, runs a telehealth platform; it says it is not a pharmacy and does not make medication.
More about how it works
Clinicians from OpenLoop Health and the CareGLP Affiliated P.C.s decide whether to prescribe. It sells a compounded semaglutide program as a weekly injection or a daily dissolvable tablet, plus brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound on a separate membership. Everything is cash-pay: its providers are out of network, though insurance may reimburse the branded options. The program page names three partner compounding pharmacies with addresses. Dietitian visits and care coaching are described as free, subject to insurance eligibility checked at the visit.
- Answer the online intake; your answers screen out anyone who cannot take a GLP-1.
- Pay for the first month at checkout.
- Meet a clinician after checkout; if you do not qualify, you get a full refund.
- If prescribed, a partner pharmacy ships the medication to your door.
- Refills bill at the locked-in refill price each month until you cancel.
What MEDVi includes in the price
- Provider review and a prescription if appropriate
- The medication, with no membership fee
- One-on-one guidance from your provider
- A patient portal for check-ins and progress
- A support line open around the clock
- Free shipping
If you want to cancel or get a refund
The plan renews monthly; cancel by email or the portal chat at least 72 hours before your billing date, or the next month is charged. Service runs to the end of that cycle. A full refund applies only within 72 hours of starting if you received nothing, or if a provider disqualifies you.

Questions people ask about MEDVi
How much is MEDVi after the first month?
More. The first month is discounted, and after that refills bill at one monthly figure MEDVi says is locked in, shown in the price box above. Budget from that figure, not the first charge.
Will MEDVi bill my insurance?
No. Every plan is cash-pay, and its providers are out of network. If you choose brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound, your insurer may reimburse you, so ask your plan before you order.
Which pharmacy fills a MEDVi prescription?
One of three partner pharmacies named on its program page, in Alabama, Utah and Texas. MEDVi does not say which one fills a given order, so ask support if it matters to you.
Can I get a refund if I cancel MEDVi?
Only in narrow cases: within the first 72 hours if you have received no service, or if a provider disqualifies you. Otherwise, the month you cancel in is kept.
Does MEDVi serve every state?
It does not publish a list. Its terms say to ask customer service for the current states, so check before you pay for the first month.
If MEDVi isn't the right fit
Close to MEDVi, but each does better on the thing MEDVi does least well.
