Is it right for you?

Worth a look if

  • You'd rather not commit to a longer term before you know how semaglutide suits you.
  • You care about which pharmacy compounds your medication, since Obu names both of them.
  • You live in California, Massachusetts, Rhode Island or Vermont and want to know your doctor ahead of time.

Skip it if

  • You want the dose range and vial strength spelled out before you sign up.
  • You'd want your money back on a shipped order you changed your mind about.

What's included

Semaglutide is sold on 1-, 3-, 6- and 12-month subscriptions. The monthly one is $190, and the longer terms are shown as a single price for the full stretch. Obu lists doctor consultation, ongoing care, dose adjustments and free expedited shipping as part of the plan. Its page also promises no membership fees.

Your prescriber comes from MD Integrations, the doctor network Obu uses. In four states the FAQ names the physician in advance: Dr. Jeffrey Shellenberger for California, Massachusetts and Vermont, and Dr. Marc Serota for Rhode Island. Manifest Pharmacy and RX Compounding Store are the two pharmacies that may fill the order.

From sign-up to refills

  1. Choose semaglutide on Obu's site and start the online visit. It's a short set of medical questions.
  2. Add a photo of yourself and your ID when asked.
  3. Expect to hear from a doctor within roughly 24 hours. Certain states need a video visit or live chat.
  4. The pharmacy ships your prescription by Rush No-Contact delivery, so nobody has to sign.
  5. Your subscription renews on the plan you picked. Change the card or address any time in your account.

What's good, what isn't

What's good

  • The semaglutide page says the $190 monthly price holds at every dose, with no surprise hikes.
  • Rush No-Contact delivery means no one has to be home to sign for the box.
  • For California, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Vermont, the FAQ names the prescribing doctor in advance.

What isn't

  • The returns policy makes a prescription sale final once USPS, FedEx or UPS has the package.
  • The page never lists which mg doses or vial strengths Obu offers for semaglutide.
  • The FAQ says Obu doesn't take insurance of any kind, so every month is out of pocket.

Read these terms first

Which subscription is selected
The page offers four plan lengths. Monthly is $190, and the others are charged as one total for the whole term.
Stopping the next refill
Cancel or pause in the patient portal before the next shipment goes out. An order already with the carrier can't be pulled back.
Cold shipping
Semaglutide belongs in the fridge between doses, which Obu's FAQ also says. Ask support how the package is kept cool in transit.
