Compounded semaglutide
Ivy Rx review
Ivy Rx advertises compounded semaglutide "From $77", but that is the per-month rate on a 12-month supply. Buy one month at a time and it's $177, the same at every dose. The medication, the clinician and delivery are all in that figure.
Is it right for you?
Worth a look if
- You want the price fixed while your semaglutide dose is raised.
- You'd rather skip lab tests and get a same-day answer from a clinician.
- You're happy to prepay a year, which brings the month down to $77.
Skip it if
- You plan to pay month by month and want a low monthly bill, because this plan costs $177.
- You want to choose the pharmacy yourself.
- You need a clear refund route after the first two weeks.
What's included
Each month brings four weekly semaglutide doses, formulated with vitamin B6 or B12. The price doesn't change when your prescriber moves you to a higher strength. Ivy Rx's program page says medication costs are included, with no hidden fees.
The semaglutide is made by compounding pharmacies that Ivy Rx says follow 503B and USP <797> standards. Ivy Rx posts potency, sterility, endotoxin and pH results from outside labs. Delivery is free and arrives chilled and discreet.
Four plan lengths are offered: monthly, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months. The monthly plan costs $177; the rest lower the per-month price in exchange for paying ahead.
From sign-up to refills
- Pick semaglutide on Ivy Rx's site and fill in the health questionnaire.
- Set up an account and a delivery address, then choose a plan length and pay.
- A doctor reviews your history within 24 hours, often sooner.
- Once approved, the pharmacy prepares your order in about 3 to 5 business days, or 7 to 10 when demand is high.
- Before every refill, complete a short provider check-in. Billing and shipping wait until you do.
What's good, what isn't
What's good
- The Ivy Rx plan screen says "Same price, every dose," so a higher semaglutide strength costs nothing extra.
- Refills need a monthly Ivy Rx check-in, and skipping it cancels the renewal instead of charging you.
- Ivy Rx lists potency, sterility, endotoxin and pH results for its compounded medication.
What isn't
- The "From $77" headline needs a 12-month commitment; one month at a time is $177.
- Ivy Rx's general FAQ calls all transactions final, and its terms limit refund requests to 15 days.
- Prescriptions stay with Ivy Rx partner pharmacies; the FAQ says you can't use your own.
