The label on a sponsored row marks a commercial relationship, not a position: the row keeps the place its score gives it, and its two advertised amounts are advertiser-supplied rather than recorded prices. Surfbound Health is operated by Open Water Rx LLC, which also operates this guide: it is scored the same way and holds the place its score gives it, and its row states the ownership. How that is handled.
1–12 of 22 programs · page 1 of 2
Both price columns follow the price rule set out in How to read a row: the out-the-door month-to-month price in US dollars, with no conversion and no tax added. Where a program sells no product for a molecule at all, its cell reads “Not offered”, because a molecule the program never sells is a different fact from a price we have not recorded. Check dates on this page are written month-day-year. The labeled sponsored row is outside that rule: its two figures are the advertiser’s advertised monthly prices for compounded injectables, supplied by the advertiser and not independently checked, and they are not recorded price rows.
Compounded and brand-name products appear together because buyers compare them. They can share an active ingredient; they are not the same product. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved and are not generic versions of the brand-name medications.
Short answer
How is this index ranked?
By score. The publisher sets each program’s score out of 100 and publishes it as set, and the list runs highest score first — 22 programs are listed, with the top 20 forming the recommendation set. Two programs on the same rating are ordered alphabetically. Nothing else decides a place: not a lower price, not the absence of a membership fee, not a month-to-month term, not a paid placement. A labeled sponsored entry is listed by the same score as every other program, with its advertised amounts flagged as advertiser-supplied, and oral plans are recorded separately so they never affect a position.
The monthly price, membership structure and commitment term beside each program are recorded facts with their own source and check date. What a rating here does and does not mean is in the method below.

One-month, standard-ongoing prices only. Prepaid terms, first-order or introductory amounts, package totals and separately priced lower-dose tiers are not used in any column, and a program whose standard monthly rate is not recorded says so rather than being shown a substitute figure.
Not recorded in this guide is a gap in our research, not a finding about the program: an unread fact is never shown as a missing benefit. Full terms, sources and check dates sit on each program’s record.
The featured program is not the cheapest here. OrderlyMeds records $149 a month for semaglutide against Surfbound Health's $169 on the same one-month basis. The lower price is printed in its own column rather than left out of the comparison.
Surfbound Health is operated by the company that publishes this guide. Its column is read from the same recorded fields as every other column, and its score and place in the index are set on the same way as every other program. Disclosure How we compare
Featured program · value note
How Surfbound compares with lower-priced programs
A low monthly figure is one fact about a program, not the whole bill. This program is worth comparing on what its price already covers, what it does not change when a prescription changes, and how far the commitment runs. Those are the things a cheaper headline can leave out, and they are the things you can check in both directions.
Recorded in our comparison
Checked October 22, 2026
Read from Surfbound’s published pricing and the plan records behind the index, then filed with its source and check date.
- Injectable semaglutide at $169 every 28 days The out-the-door charge for one 28-day period, with no conversion and no tax added.
- Injectable tirzepatide at $219 every 28 days The same out-the-door basis, on the same plan as published.
- No separate membership fee The recorded membership line is $0, and it sits inside the price rather than beside it.
- One period at a time A recurring plan billed every 28 days, so the commitment column stays short.
- Cancellation in the patient portal Future renewals can be cancelled with no required advance notice and no cancellation fee.
- Provider review, medication and shipping in the charge The recorded cost scope of the plan covers all three, so none of them is billed after the fact.
Stated by Surfbound, not independently tested by us
The provider’s own description. We have not verified it at checkout or over a support channel.
- Same published price at each prescribed dose Surfbound states the monthly price does not rise with the prescribed dose. The numeric dose range is not publicly verified, so this describes the price, not which doses are available.
- Human help by phone, text and email Described by Surfbound. We have not tested response times or the hours those channels are staffed.
What to compare beyond price
Six questions that change the monthly figure or what you get for it. Ask them of any program, including this one.
- Required fees Does the headline price already include a membership, consultation or shipping charge, and is any mandatory one-time fee printed beside it rather than folded in?
- Dose increases Does the price move when the prescribed dose changes? A flat price and a stepped price both exist, and only one of them keeps the figure you were quoted.
- Cancellation Where do you cancel, how much notice is required, and does the period you already paid for run out or end immediately?
- Pharmacy disclosure Is the dispensing pharmacy named, and is it a licensed US pharmacy? Compounded medication is dispensed by a pharmacy, not by the program brand.
- Support access Can you reach a person by phone, text or email, and are those hours published? A portal form is not the same as a number to call.
- Included services Are the provider review, the medication and the shipping inside the charge, or does one of them appear later as its own line?
A cheaper program can be the better buy. Some recorded programs charge less per month than Surfbound Health and publish a similar bundle, and a lower figure is not evidence of a hidden fee. Compare at the same formulation, the same billing interval and the same included services before treating any price as the answer. Nothing on this page is a claim that another provider’s price is misleading.
GLP1 Buyer Guide and Surfbound Health are both owned by Open Water Rx LLC. That company benefits economically when a reader chooses Surfbound Health, which is why the feature is labeled. Surfbound also holds the place its score gives it in the index, like every other entry. The Surfbound record and its sources Disclosure
Two pages hold the rest of the record: the ten legitimacy checks, with what could not be established and the full twelve-review record.
Compounded products are not FDA-approved and are not generic versions of a brand-name medication.
How to read a row
The columns are deliberately narrow. Each one answers a question a bill will ask you later.
The price is out the door
The figure in a price cell is the out-the-door monthly price: the recorded medication charge plus every mandatory recurring fee the program charges, so a membership, consultation or shipping charge sits inside the number rather than underneath it. A mandatory fee charged once is not a monthly charge, so it is printed next to the price as its own labeled line instead of being folded in. Nothing optional is added, and no converted or annualized figure appears beside it.
Membership is its own line
A membership billed separately sits in its own column as well as inside the price, so you can see how much of the number is fee rather than medication. “Included” means the amount is inside the recorded charge, not that it is absent. A membership we cannot read is “not stated”, never $0.
Term is not cadence
Paying every month says nothing about how long you are held. The term column carries the commitment on record, so a monthly bill attached to a longer contract is not mistaken for month-to-month.
A blank is a finding
Where a provider does not publish a figure, the cell stays unresolved and says so. Nothing on this page is filled in from a similar program or from last year’s price, and no rating is moved to cover a blank.

Where the money behind a row is explained
- Choosing an online GLP-1 provider for 2027 — the index written out with the price and the one limitation on each program.
- What GLP-1 costs without insurance — the cash-pay budget version, sorted by charge rather than by rating.
- Seasonal GLP-1 offers and the standard price they revert to — why a promotional row is never compared with a standard one.
- Using HSA or FSA money for treatment — who funds the bill, and which deadline applies to an account.
- The pharmacy behind a program — the dispensing category recorded for each program group.
- How to verify a sterile compounding pharmacy — licence, disciplinary record and the batch evidence a register never shows.
The score is a summary. The row behind it is the evidence.
Every program has a profile with the same fields, the source for each figure and the date we checked it. Start there before you start a checkout.
FAQ
Questions about the ranking
How the order is decided, what the price beside a program means and why a row sits where it does.
-
Does the top-ranked program mean the best compounded tirzepatide program?
No. Surfbound Health currently holds the first ranked position: rank 1 of 22, with a score of 94.3 out of 100, with its tirzepatide recorded at $219 per month. The order is a recommendation and the figure is a score, and neither is a drug-specific price ranking. The monthly price shown on the row is the program’s lowest eligible out-the-door injectable price across molecules; here that is $169 a month on its semaglutide Compounded injectable. A program can therefore sit high on the list while a particular molecule costs more elsewhere. Nothing here is an endorsement of a medication, a claim about care or a finding of clinical superiority. -
