MEDGm review

The only program we review that offers compounded semaglutide as a daily tablet, with an all-inclusive monthly price and more support built in than most. The open questions are about price at higher doses and cancellation.

Who it is for, and who it is not

A good fit if you would rather not inject, if you want support included in the price rather than added on, or if nausea is your main worry: anti-nausea medication is included when a clinician thinks it is appropriate.

Not a fit if you live in Louisiana (not served), if you want the lowest possible monthly price (see our price comparison), if you are 75 or older (the program serves adults 18 to 74), or if any of the conditions in guide F apply.

How it works

MEDGm starts with a short online quiz to check whether you are likely to qualify. You choose a plan and check out, a US-licensed provider reviews your information in a one-to-one consultation, and approved prescriptions ship to your door. Follow-ups happen every 12 weeks, with dose adjustments based on how you are doing, and you can message clinicians through a members portal that also tracks your medication, doses, and refills.

Support is broader than most: 24/7 patient support, with clinical coverage seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Central. A 12-week follow-up interval is longer than some programs; if you want more frequent contact during dose increases, use the portal and do not wait for the scheduled visit.

The medications

MEDGm offers compounded semaglutide as a weekly injection or as daily tablets, and compounded tirzepatide as a weekly injection. It also offers what it calls personalized co-formulations aimed at goals such as muscle preservation, energy, or sleep. Treat those additions with care: combining a GLP-1 with other ingredients creates a product that has not been studied as a combination. Ask your clinician what is being added and why, as guide B recommends for any compounded product.

On tablets: oral semaglutide is absorbed poorly unless taken exactly as directed, usually on an empty stomach with a small amount of water and a wait before eating. Ask how the compounded tablet should be taken, and expect stricter daily rules than a weekly shot. Guide D covers oral options.

Brand-name plans are also available. Those carry a separate membership fee, with medication billed separately at cash prices.

What it costs

MEDGm's compounded plans start at about $169 a month for injections and about $239 a month for tablets, described as all-inclusive: consultation, follow-ups, refills, free shipping, and anti-nausea medication when appropriate, with no membership fee. New patients on the monthly plan get $120 off the first month; standard pricing applies from month two. Six- and 12-month plans can be paid in installments through Klarna, and the program is HSA and FSA eligible.

The question to ask: what is the price at the dose you are likely to reach? "Starting at" usually means the starting dose. MEDGm does not publish prices for higher doses, and most people's maintenance dose is well above where they start. Get that number in writing before you pay. Also remember that a $120 first-month discount makes month one look cheaper than every month after it; compare programs on month-four cost, not month one. Prices were checked in October 2026; confirm on MEDGm's site. The cost guide shows the method.

States

MEDGm serves every state except Louisiana, where compounded GLP-1 medication for weight loss is prohibited. Patients under 19 are not eligible in Nebraska. Naming its exclusions is a point in its favor.

What we could not confirm

• The medical group employing the providers.
• The pharmacy's name and type (503A or 503B).
• Cancellation and refund terms, especially for 6- and 12-month plans if a clinician stops your treatment.
• Prices above the starting dose.

The checklist result

Against our published checklist, MEDGm passes on disclosing brand vs. compounded, an itemized all-in price, named state exclusions, a structured follow-up schedule, and strong support hours. It has the most unanswered questions of the programs we review: medical group, pharmacy, cancellation terms, and higher-dose pricing. Ask all four before you pay.

Your first month with MEDGm

The quiz is a pre-check, not the medical review; the one-to-one consultation with a provider comes after you choose a plan. Use that consultation well. Bring a list of your current medications and doses, and ask directly about anything you are unsure of, including whether the tablet or the injection suits you better. If anti-nausea medication is offered, ask when to take it and for how long.

When your medication arrives, check the label for your name, the prescriber, the drug and strength, and a beyond-use date. Tablets come with timing rules that matter for absorption; follow them exactly. Keep a weekly note of your weight, appetite, and side effects.

Because the scheduled follow-up is every 12 weeks, you will likely pass at least one dose change before your first formal check-in. Do not wait for it. Message through the portal before each increase with your notes, and ask the clinician to confirm the new dose and what it will cost.

Questions to ask MEDGm before you pay

• What will I pay per month at my likely maintenance dose, not the starting dose?
• What is the cancellation and refund policy, especially on 6- and 12-month plans?
• Which pharmacy prepares my medication, and is it 503A or 503B?
• If I am offered a co-formulation, what is added, and why?

How it compares

MEDGm is the pick if you specifically want a compounded tablet. On price, SnagRx and HealthRX publish lower rates that stay flat at every dose. For brand-name medication, see Found. Everything is side by side on the compare page. If you want plan lengths from one to 12 months with written cancellation terms, see Oak.

Compounded medications, including MEDGm's, are not FDA-approved, and trial results for brand-name products have not been established for compounded versions.
