Provider review
Transparent Meds cost: $349/mo tirzepatide
A real 45-state list — but its "intro" price is never labeled as one.
Its own site code names the featured $99/$199 "Monthly price" `introMonthly`, next to an unexplained, crossed-out "List price" — a distinction disclosed nowhere a reader actually sees it.

The catch — Its own site code labels the featured $99/$199 figure `introMonthly` and pairs it with a separate `listMonthly` figure ($229/$349) rendered as a crossed-out, unexplained comparison on every pricing card sitewide — internal naming that implies an introductory rate, though the actual checkout couldn't be walked through to directly confirm the charge changes after the first cycle. Separately, its own Terms of Service (§4, "Subscription Cancellations") do confirm the plan is a real automatically-renewing subscription — "Your chosen payment method is automatically charged in advance of each billing cycle," canceled by "turning off auto-renew / auto-refill" — so some form of ongoing commitment is confirmed even where the exact renewal price is not.

What they advertise
Transparent Meds' own pricing cards show a "Monthly price" of $99 for compounded Semaglutide and $199 for compounded Tirzepatide, each next to a separate, crossed-out "List price" ($229 and $349) labeled "You save" for the difference — no explanation of what "List price" means appears anywhere on the rendered site.
What you actually pay
The real standing rate is very likely $229/mo (semaglutide) and $349/mo (tirzepatide) — Transparent Meds' own site code internally treats the discounted figures as an introductory rate — but that couldn't be confirmed by watching an actual second-cycle charge: the checkout runs on a separate subdomain that returned no content when we tried to load it directly.
Money you will meet later
- Insurance is not billed directly; the site offers a receipt for potential out-of-network reimbursement instead, per its own FAQ.
- In-person visits or labs are ordered only when a clinician decides they're medically appropriate, per its own FAQ — not a routine, priced line item.
- Its own Refund & Cancellation Policy lists provider-consultation fees, platform/membership fees, and already-shipped medication as non-refundable once triggered — see our cancellation-policy breakdown for the detail.
The bottom line
Transparent Meds (transparentmeds.co, operated by Transparent Meds LLC) is a real, LegitScript-verified telehealth storefront selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, with a genuinely published 45-state coverage list — a level of disclosure most providers here don't clear. The brand name doesn't fully hold up, though: it names a clinical network (Locum Tele) and a compounding pharmacy (Rush Pharmacy) in a footer disclaimer but states no 503A/503B category for either, and its featured "Monthly price" of $99/$199 is an introductory figure, set against an unexplained, crossed-out "List price" of $229/$349 — a distinction its own Terms of Service, which do confirm automatic recurring billing via a self-service auto-renew toggle, never actually spell out. Ask what you'll be charged at the first renewal. Sermorelin is marketed with its own dosing information but has no price and no working checkout path, routing instead to a contact form.
Transparent Meds appears on our tirzepatide provider ranking, our semaglutide provider ranking and our combined weight loss injections ranking. Nothing on this page is a performance claim.
Who it is for, and who it is not
A good fit if
- You want a provider that actually publishes which states it serves — 45 named out of 50 — rather than leaving availability to be discovered during signup.
- You're comfortable toggling auto-renew off in your account or emailing support before your next bill; its Terms of Service require 48 hours' notice and describe a real self-service cancellation path.
- A LegitScript badge you can actually check matters — its seal ID resolves to a live, recently-updated certificate image, unlike more than one peer here whose badge couldn't be confirmed.
Look elsewhere if
- You're pricing this off the "$99/mo" or "$199/mo" figure shown most prominently — that number is treated internally as an introductory rate next to an unexplained, higher "List price," and the actual checkout (hosted off-domain) couldn't be reached to confirm what happens after the first charge.
- You want the pharmacy filling your prescription named AND regulatorily classified — Transparent Meds names Rush Pharmacy and a clinical network (Locum Tele) in a footer disclaimer, but never states a 503A/503B category for either, even though this same Rush Pharmacy is classified 503A on Precision Telemed's own site.
- You're interested in Sermorelin specifically — it's marketed with its own dosing and safety information card, but has no listed price, and its "Get Started" path is a contact form, not a checkout.

Who fills your prescription
No category stated
Transparent Meds does not name the pharmacy that fills your prescription.
What its own site says
Names a clinical network and a pharmacy, and gives a regulatory category for neither. A disclaimer block on its weight-loss page states plainly: "Clinical services are provided by Locum Tele, an independent network of U.S.-licensed clinicians... Prescriptions are filled and shipped by Rush Pharmacy, a U.S.-based, state-licensed compounding pharmacy." Neither "503A" nor "503B" appears anywhere on the site, even though this is the SAME Rush Pharmacy that Precision Telemed's own site, elsewhere here, names and classifies, plainly, as "a licensed 503A compounding pharmacy." The regulatory claim has to come from Transparent Meds' own page about its own pharmacy relationship, not be borrowed from a different company's page about the same vendor — so the category here stays unknown rather than assumed.
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
Published as an actual list, not a vague coverage claim: its own FAQ ("What states do you serve?") names 45 states directly — "We currently serve patients in the following states: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming" — explicitly excluding five: Alaska, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Hampshire, and New Mexico. This is a real disclosure win relative to most providers here, which typically state availability vaguely or not at all.
The honest cons
The part they would rather you skipped
A company named "Transparent Meds" shows every visitor a "Monthly price" of $99 (semaglutide) or $199 (tirzepatide) next to a crossed-out, unexplained "List price" of $229 / $349 — and never once uses the word "intro" anywhere a reader is actually shown, even though that's exactly how the site's own code treats the discount internally. Its pharmacy disclosure has the same shape: it names a clinical network (Locum Tele) and a compounding pharmacy (Rush Pharmacy) in a footer disclaimer — the SAME Rush Pharmacy this site's own Precision Telemed review sources to a plain 503A claim — but Transparent Meds' own site never states any regulatory category for it.
- The featured $99/mo (semaglutide) and $199/mo (tirzepatide) "Monthly price" is treated internally as an introductory rate, next to an unexplained, crossed-out "List price" ($229/$349) — a distinction never disclosed to a reader anywhere on the site
- Names a clinical network (Locum Tele) and a pharmacy (Rush Pharmacy) but states no 503A/503B regulatory category for either — notable because this exact same Rush Pharmacy is classified 503A on Precision Telemed's own site
- Sermorelin has its own dosing/safety information card but no price and no working purchase path anywhere on the site — its "Get Started" button routes to a contact form, not a checkout
- The actual checkout/intake runs on a separate, form-builder-hosted subdomain that returned no content when we tried to load it directly, so the real per-cycle charge couldn't be confirmed
None of this is unique to Transparent Meds — the whole category shares it.

- SkinnyRxInjectable and oral tirzepatide — but the advertised price is a floor, not what you pay.
- Enhance MDHonest pricing and a real 503A claim — but it isn't in all 50 states, whatever it says.
