Compounded semaglutide
Alloy review
Alloy's compounded semaglutide starts at $70 for a month's supply, but that isn't the whole bill. Every patient also pays the monthly Alloy Weight Care fee, which brings a starting month to $169. What the fee buys is a menopause-trained doctor you can message as often as you like.
Is it right for you?
Worth a look if
- You're a woman in perimenopause or menopause and want a doctor who treats weight and hormones together.
- You'd like to begin on a low dose and step up slowly.
- You may want to switch to a branded medication later without changing providers.
Skip it if
- You live in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Nevada or Washington, DC, where Alloy offers only FDA-approved medications.
- You're in Louisiana or Mississippi, where Alloy doesn't offer weight care at all.
- You want the lowest total price, since the membership alone costs more than the starting medication.
What's included
The semaglutide page lists a 1-month supply of a weekly injection, starting at $70. That's the starting dose. Alloy doesn't publish what later doses cost, so expect the medication line to change as your prescription does.
The Weight Care fee, charged monthly, covers unlimited messaging with your doctor, refills and renewals, dose adjustments, side-effect management and monthly nutrition and exercise support. If you already take menopausal hormone therapy, the doctor can coordinate the two. Delivery is free.
Alloy's terms name the three pharmacies it uses: Curexa in New Jersey, BLEND in Ohio and Gogo Pharmacy in Kentucky. The semaglutide page doesn't say which one fills compounded orders.
From sign-up to refills
- Complete Alloy's online intake about your symptoms, health history and goals. It takes 5 to 10 minutes.
- A menopause-specialized doctor reviews it and builds a weight care plan, usually in under 12 hours.
- If you're prescribed semaglutide, the pharmacy ships it to your door at no charge.
- Refills and dose changes run through your doctor in the Alloy dashboard, and the membership renews each month.
What's good, what isn't
What's good
- Doses at Alloy start low and rise gradually, adjusted to how well you tolerate semaglutide.
- Doctors at Alloy are board-certified menopause specialists, and messaging them is unlimited.
- Alloy names its three pharmacies in its terms, Curexa and BLEND among them.
What isn't
- The mandatory Weight Care membership makes a starting month $169, not $70.
- Compounded semaglutide isn't offered in California, Nevada, Alabama, Arkansas or DC.
- Membership and consultation fees are non-refundable under Alloy's terms, and only a first shipment can be refunded.
Read these terms first
- When to cancel
- Cancel the membership at least 7 days before the period ends, by email or in your dashboard. Shipments need a separate cancel or pause 5 business days before they process.
- What you pay on day one
- The medication is billed after a doctor prescribes it. Look at the checkout screen for an initial consult charge listed on its own line, and for any first-month offer on the membership.
- Higher doses
- The starting price covers the starting dose only. Ask your Alloy doctor what your maintenance dose will cost before you commit.

Common questions about Alloy
- Is Alloy legit for semaglutide?
- Alloy is a women's health telehealth company. Independent licensed physicians do the prescribing, and licensed compounding pharmacies prepare the drug. Compounded semaglutide isn't Wegovy or Ozempic, and Alloy's own page says the FDA doesn't review compounded medications.
- How much does Alloy semaglutide cost per month?
- The medication starts at $70 a month at the starting dose. The required Weight Care membership is added each month, for a starting total of $169. Higher doses may cost more.
- Does Alloy take insurance?
- No. Neither the medication nor the monthly fee goes through insurance. Alloy will provide receipts and prescriptions if you want to claim from an HSA or FSA, but coverage isn't guaranteed.
- Can you cancel Alloy?
- Yes. Email support or cancel in your account dashboard at least 7 days before your billing period ends. Your account then closes when that period runs out.
