Henry Meds review
Flat-fee, cash-pay
Compounded GLP-1s from $179 a month all-in, covering visits, medication, supplies and shipping. Weekly semaglutide shots cost $297, and each plan caps how much drug you get.
Our verdict
Henry Meds is a plain, cash-pay route to compounded GLP-1s, with one monthly price that covers the provider, the medication, supplies, shipping and ongoing support. Its full price sheet is public, which makes the headline easy to check, and the check matters. The $179 entry price is for daily liraglutide injections or under-the-tongue semaglutide. Weekly semaglutide injections, the format most people mean by a GLP-1 shot, cost $297 a month. Each plan also covers "up to" a set amount of medication per shipment, and the semaglutide injection allowance averages about 1 mg a week, below the 2.4 mg weekly maintenance dose of branded Wegovy, so ask what happens to the price if your dose goes higher. Henry is unhurried, too: medication usually arrives 8 to 10 business days after your provider visit. Multi-month plans save money but can leave you owing the balance if you stop early.

Henry Meds is the trading name of Adonis Health, Inc., a cash-pay telehealth service that provides administrative support to independent licensed clinicians. Its weight-management menu is compounded only: weekly or every-other-week semaglutide injections, daily liraglutide injections, under-the-tongue semaglutide as tablets or drops, and orally dissolving tirzepatide and semaglutide tablets sold as three-month supplies. It also prescribes phentermine for weight loss, and beyond weight it treats low testosterone, perimenopause and menopause symptoms with hormone therapy, and erectile dysfunction.
How it works
You fill in medical forms, which Henry says take under five minutes. Then you either book a video visit with a provider or, depending on your state, choose a provider review of your answers without a call. If you're prescribed, medication usually arrives within 8 to 10 business days of the provider visit, and California patients may wait longer because of extra testing on compounded drugs. After that, Henry's FAQ says refills ship every 45 days for injectables and every 90 days for oral tablets, though its program sheet describes shipments every 60 days, so ask which applies to your plan. You message your provider through the patient portal for dose changes and side effects. GLP-1 treatment is limited to adults aged 18 to 70, and you need an address in a state Henry serves; it doesn't publish the list. Henry says its medication is compounded at licensed 503A pharmacies or 503B outsourcing facilities in the U.S., but it doesn't name them.
Pricing transparency
Henry's program sheet, updated December 3, 2025, lists every plan. Daily liraglutide injections are $179 a month for up to 90 mg every 60 days. Weekly or every-other-week semaglutide injections are $297 a month for up to 10 mg every 70 days, or up to 12.5 mg every 90 days. Under-the-tongue semaglutide tablets are $249 a month for up to 180 mg every 60 days, and a premium non-injectable plan of sublingual semaglutide tablets or drops is $179 a month for up to 60 mg every 60 days. Oral tirzepatide tablets are sold as a three-month supply at $1,047 ($891 if paid in full), and oral semaglutide tablets as a three-month supply at $747 ($537 paid in full). Six- and 12-month plans cost less: semaglutide injections are $1,482 for six months or $2,364 for 12 if paid in full, against $297 a month otherwise. Every price includes provider visits, medication, supplies and shipping, with no insurance involved. The detail to check is the "up to" amount. The semaglutide injection plan averages about 1 mg a week, so if your provider takes you to a higher maintenance dose, ask whether the monthly price changes. On cancellation, you can cancel anytime in the patient portal, by email or by phone, but on a multi-month plan you may have to pay out the rest of the balance unless a provider says you must stop for medical reasons. Prescription medication is a final sale once it ships. Any refund Henry does grant is net of a processing fee and, if a prescription was written, a $30 consultation fee.
Branded vs compounded
Compounded medication only, with no FDA-approved branded option. Henry's own page says it plainly: compounded drugs don't go through FDA review, "may differ from commercially available or FDA-approved drugs," and trial data on approved drugs "should not be used to make assessments related to compounded medications." That's an honest framing, and it applies to everything here. Liraglutide is an older daily GLP-1, the drug in Saxenda, and produces less weight loss in trials than weekly semaglutide or tirzepatide. Under-the-tongue semaglutide and orally dissolving tirzepatide have no FDA-approved counterpart, and their absorption is far less studied than the injections. Weekly semaglutide injections are the closest match to the trial evidence, which is why the $297 price is the one most buyers should budget for.

Frequently asked
- How much does Henry Meds cost per month?
- From $179 a month for daily liraglutide injections or the premium under-the-tongue semaglutide plan, $249 for sublingual semaglutide tablets and $297 for weekly semaglutide injections. Each price includes provider visits, medication, supplies and shipping. Six- and 12-month plans cost less if paid in full.
- Why does Henry Meds say "up to" a certain amount of medication?
- Each plan covers a capped quantity per shipment. The weekly semaglutide plan, for example, covers up to 10 mg every 70 days, which averages about 1 mg a week. If your provider moves you to a higher maintenance dose, ask whether your monthly price changes.
- Can I cancel Henry Meds anytime?
- Monthly plans, yes, through the patient portal, by email or by phone. On a multi-month plan you may have to pay the rest of the balance unless a provider determines you must stop for medical reasons, in which case Henry may prorate a refund. Shipped medication is a final sale.
- Does Henry Meds take insurance?
- No. Henry Meds is cash-pay with all-in monthly pricing and no insurance involved. If putting insurance benefits toward a branded GLP-1 matters to you, an insurance-based service is a better starting point.
- Does Henry Meds require a video visit?
- Not always. After the online forms you can book a video visit, or, depending on your state, choose a provider review of your answers without a call. Either way, you can message your provider through the patient portal afterward.
- Is Henry Meds legit?
- Henry Meds is a GLP-1 telehealth service you reach through a video visit with a clinician and an online intake a clinician reviews. The medications it names are Semaglutide, Tirzepatide and an oral form. What it publishes up front: From $179/mo, all-in — visits, medication, supplies and shipping included; weekly compounded semaglutide injections $297/mo. It is cash-pay and states it does not bill insurance. Before you pay, ask in writing about which states it serves.
- Is Henry Meds expensive compared with other GLP-1 telehealth providers?
- Henry Meds publishes a starting figure of $179/mo. Across the 112 GLP-1 telehealth providers we review that publish a single monthly figure, those run $49 to $399 with a median of $179, which puts Henry Meds right at the median. The other 173 GLP-1 telehealth providers we review quote only after an intake or price by dose, so they are not in that comparison. A starting figure is not a bill — labs, consultations and shipping are often charged separately, so confirm what your own quote includes.
