Provider Transparency Checklist
Print this and run any online semaglutide provider down it before you pay. A provider that can answer every line clearly is one worth trusting.
Price
- Is the all-in monthly price shown before checkout (medication + visit + shipping + labs)?
- Is the price at your maintenance dose stated, not just the starter dose?
- Is any membership or platform fee disclosed separately?
- Is the first-month price promotional, and what is the refill price?
- What is the billing cycle (monthly vs every 28 days)?
Pharmacy & product
- Is the fulfilling pharmacy named and state-licensed?
- Is it identified as 503A (patient-specific) or 503B (outsourcing facility)?
- Is the active form semaglutide base (not an unapproved salt)?
- Has the provider or its pharmacy had recent FDA or state action?
Care & terms
- Is there a real licensed-prescriber evaluation (not just a quiz)?
- Are visits, labs, and coaching included or extra?
- What are the cancellation and refund terms?
- Does the provider avoid guarantees of results or uninterrupted supply?
Use with the cost calculator and the scoring system. A downloadable PDF version can be generated from this page.
Bottom Line
If a provider dodges any line above — especially the named pharmacy or the maintenance-dose price — treat that as a reason to slow down, not speed up.
Compounded semaglutide is not FDA-approved as a finished drug product. Compounded medications may be prescribed only when clinically appropriate and must be evaluated by a licensed prescriber. Branded medications such as Wegovy and Ozempic are FDA-approved products; compounded semaglutide is different and should not be described as FDA-approved, “generic Wegovy,” or “generic Ozempic.”
