SkinnyRx vs Glam Health
Two cash-pay compounded GLP-1 plans whose headline prices aren't the monthly cost, compared on what you actually pay.
Short answer
Neither headline is the monthly price. SkinnyRx's $99 is a first-month figure, and the month-two price appears after signup. Glam Health's pay-as-you-go price is $250 a month for semaglutide and $310 for tirzepatide; its lower headlines are prepaid microdose averages. SkinnyRx has an FDA warning letter on record (717989); Glam Health has none.

Is SkinnyRx or Glam Health better?
Both sell compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, cash-pay. SkinnyRx adds a tablet option, third-party lot testing and a provider decision usually inside a day; its refunds end once fulfillment starts. Glam Health includes B12 and a home injection kit with no forced subscription, but its homepage names no company, pharmacy, prescriber or state list and links no refund policy. Get the renewal price and cancellation terms in writing from either. SkinnyRx received FDA warning letter 717989 in February 2026, linked below.
