- Oral (no-needle) compounded option
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.
Cost
Advertises FIRST-MONTH prices only: compounded injectable semaglutide or tirzepatide from $99 first month, semaglutide tablets $149 first month, tirzepatide tablets $199 first month. The ongoing renewal rate is not published on the homepage — ask before enrolling.
Official price source · Checked 2026-09-22. Official homepage. CHANGED since 2026-08-06: the range was previously a $299/month tablet price; SkinnyRx now leads with first-month pricing across four formats and does not publish the renewal rate. A first-month price is not a monthly price.
What you actually pay
The advertised price is usually month one, often on annual prepay. These figures are taken from this provider’s own public pricing page on the date above. “Not published” means their page does not say — not that it is free.

Price history
We re-verify this provider’s published pricing against their own site and record what we find, so a change is visible rather than silently overwritten. Every entry is a check we actually did on that date.

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
- Oral compounded tirzepatide is less established than injectable brand-name medication
- 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.
