A disclosed affiliate partner of ours. SkinnyRx offers a once-daily compounded tirzepatide oral tablet from $299/month — a no-needle option that stands out on convenience. We keep it in the compounded tier (below brand-name providers) because compounded medication is not FDA-approved and oral compounded tirzepatide is less established — not because of our partnership.

Official price source · Checked 2026-08-06. Official homepage advertises "from $299/month"; the starting price is not a guaranteed all-in patient cost.
The all-in cost rule: your real cost is membership + medication + any required labs — not just the headline membership price. Confirm the full number for your situation before enrolling. For every path compared, see our real cost of GLP-1s guide.
What we like
- Once-daily oral tablet — no injections
- Uses tirzepatide (dual-action) rather than semaglutide
- Verified advertised starting price (from $299/mo)
What to watch
- Compounded medication is NOT FDA-approved (see disclosure) and its availability is now restricted

- Confirm what is included (visits, labs, shipping) — the $299 is a starting figure, not a guaranteed all-in
Compounded-medication note: Compounded semaglutide/tirzepatide is not FDA-approved and is not reviewed by the FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality. It is not a generic or the same as Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound. Availability is now restricted since the FDA declared the shortages resolved — see our compounded semaglutide guide.
