Provider review
PlushCare cost: From $299/mo brand-name GLP-1
PlushCare lists Brand-name GLP-1 at From $299/mo. Prices checked October 2026.
Still prices compounded semaglutide, but its own pages say it can't prescribe it now.
PlushCare's semaglutide page still quotes compounded semaglutide at $149 a month (0.25 mg) and $299 for higher doses. The same page says compounded semaglutide "cannot be prescribed when the brand name versions of Ozempic® and Wegovy® are not on the FDA Shortage List," and FDA resolved both GLP-1 shortages in 2024 and 2025. Its compounded-tirzepatide page now redirects to its Mounjaro page.

The catch — Compounded semaglutide is still priced on its page ($149 and $299 a month), but the same page says it cannot be prescribed while the brands are off FDA's shortage list.

What they advertise
Visits $129 without insurance (often $30 or less with in-network insurance), plus an optional $19.99/mo membership, first month free. Brand-name Zepbound vials $299 (2.5 mg), $399 (5 mg) or $449 (7.5–15 mg) a month, paid to LillyDirect; Zepbound pens a flat $650.
What you actually pay
At least $299/mo for Zepbound at the starting dose, paid to LillyDirect, plus $129 for each self-pay visit. Its Zepbound page tells you to join the $19.99/mo membership for new prescriptions and refills; its Terms say the membership is not required for medical care.
Money you will meet later
- Wegovy pens through NovoCare: $199 a month for the first two months of the two lowest doses, then $399, per its Wegovy page, which says the starting price ran through March 2026.
- Drug and lab costs are not part of the visit refund.
The bottom line
PlushCare (PlushCare, Inc., part of Fabric Labs, Inc.) is a large general telehealth service. For weight loss its doctors now prescribe brand-name GLP-1s, filled through insurance or the makers' self-pay pharmacies — Zepbound vials from $299 a month through LillyDirect. Visits are $129 without insurance.
PlushCare appears on our brand-name GLP-1 provider ranking.
Who is PlushCare for, and who is it not for?
A good fit if
- You want brand-name Zepbound or Wegovy and a doctor who handles prior authorization with your insurer.
- You have in-network insurance: most patients pay $30 or less per visit, per PlushCare.
- You want a doctor who can also treat other conditions, not only weight.
Look elsewhere if
- You want compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide: its own pages say it can only prescribe them while the brands are on FDA's shortage list.
- You want one all-in price: the visit, the optional membership and the drug are billed separately.
- You want a refund after a visit: once a doctor assesses you, the appointment is not refunded.
Who fills your prescription
No category stated
PlushCare states no 503A/503B category for the pharmacy that fills your prescription.
What its own site says
Brand-name prescriptions go to your pharmacy of choice or the makers' self-pay pharmacies (LillyDirect, NovoCare). For compounded semaglutide, when it was available, PlushCare names only a "preferred compounding pharmacy" and no federal compounding category.
What's the difference between 503A and 503B?
A 503A pharmacy compounds for one named patient; a 503B outsourcing facility manufactures in batches under CGMP. Neither is a quality guarantee on its own — a named facility is simply a fact you can check, and an unnamed “partner pharmacy network” is not. Compounded peptides are not FDA-approved.
Where you can get it
Published state list
Visits in all 50 states and DC. Its pages limit compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, when available, to 40 states and DC.
The honest cons
The part they would rather you skipped
PlushCare still prints compounded semaglutide prices that its own page says it cannot prescribe while the brands are off FDA's shortage list, and its Zepbound page tells you to join a membership its Terms say is optional. No FDA warning letter names PlushCare, Inc. or Fabric Labs, Inc. at fda.gov.
- Compounded GLP-1s are not available now, though compounded semaglutide is still priced on its page.
- The visit, the membership and the drug are billed separately, with no total.
- No appointment refund once a doctor has assessed you; prescriptions are final sale.
