Compounded semaglutide
Avono Health review
Semaglutide at Avono Health is $219 a month, month to month, with no membership or clinician fee added. The same figure applies at every Standard Dose level. Avono also names its medical group and its partner pharmacies on its own site, so you know who stands behind the vial.
Is it right for you?
Worth a look if
- You want to know which pharmacies might compound your semaglutide before you sign up.
- You like being able to reach a U.S.-based support team about orders and charges.
- You'd rather pay one flat monthly price than a lower first month that jumps later.
Skip it if
- You only need a very low dose, since Avono sells that as a separate Microdose Program at its own price.
- You're hoping to lock in a cheaper rate by paying for several months at once.
What's included
The semaglutide is a compounded once-weekly injection. Avono's pricing card shows $219 per month at every Standard Dose level, covering the medication, clinician care, follow-up messaging and shipping. It advertises no membership fee, no clinician fee and the same rate in month one and month two.
Prescribing is handled by Lion MD, a nationwide medical team led by Dr. Ana Lisa Carr and Dr. Kelly Tenbrink. Avono lists four partner pharmacies: Belmar Pharmacy, Strive Pharmacy, Epiq Scripts and Casa Pharma Rx. Your medication ships from within the U.S., free and discreetly packed.
Doses up to 2.5 mg belong to Avono's Microdose Program, which has a separate flat price and isn't a required first step. There are oral options for people who'd rather avoid needles, at a higher monthly figure.
From sign-up to refills
- Take the short online assessment about your health and goals, pick semaglutide and add a card for authorization.
- A clinician licensed in your state reviews your answers and may schedule a brief telehealth visit if something needs clarifying.
- Once treatment is prescribed, Avono charges the card and a partner pharmacy ships the semaglutide.
- Order, billing and shipping questions go to Avono's support team. Clinical questions go to your care team through the portal.
What's good, what isn't
What's good
- Avono names four partner pharmacies, including Belmar Pharmacy and Strive Pharmacy, on its own FAQ.
- The $219 monthly price stays put at every Standard Dose level, with no membership fee.
- Charges appear on your statement as “CARE VALIDATE,” so an Avono payment is easy to spot.
What isn't
- Low doses up to 2.5 mg are priced under a separate Microdose Program, not the Standard Dose figure.
- Avono doesn't say which of its 4 pharmacies will fill your particular prescription.
- Fees stop being refundable once a provider reviews your intake, according to Avono's terms.
Read these terms first
- Your statement
- Look for CARE VALIDATE on your card statement. That name covers both the authorization and any later charge from Avono.
- Renewal cutoff
- Cancel before the renewal or processing cutoff Avono shows you. An order already sent to the pharmacy may still go ahead.
- Program and form
- Confirm your order says Standard Dose and injection. Microdose and oral semaglutide carry different monthly prices.

Common questions about Avono Health
- Is Avono Health legit?
- Avono Health is a telehealth platform owned by Avono LLC. It publishes the names of its medical group, Lion MD, and of four partner compounding pharmacies. Avono states that compounded semaglutide is not FDA-approved, so it isn't Wegovy or Ozempic.
- How much is Avono Health semaglutide a month?
- $219 a month on the Standard Dose Program, whatever dose your clinician prescribes within it. That price includes medication, clinician care, messaging and shipping. Tirzepatide from Avono costs $299 a month on the same terms.
- Does Avono Health have a membership fee?
- No. Avono says there's no membership fee and no clinician fee. The single monthly price covers everything listed on the plan.
- What pharmacy does Avono Health use?
- Avono lists Belmar Pharmacy, Strive Pharmacy, Epiq Scripts and Casa Pharma Rx as its partners. All are state-licensed U.S. pharmacies. Ask support which one will fill your order.
- Can I stop Avono Health whenever I want?
- Yes. There's no long-term commitment and every plan runs month to month. Cancel before the next renewal cutoff so you aren't charged again.
