Compounded semaglutide

Synergy Rx review

By ·Editor·Reviewed

Compounded semaglutide at Synergy Rx costs $249 a month once your $199 first month is over. Expect a separate first-visit telehealth charge at checkout, and it isn't returned if you're declined. The 3-month plan saves nothing over paying monthly.

Is it right for you?

Worth a look if

  • You'll prepay 6 or 12 months, the only plans that cut the monthly cost.
  • You might later move to tirzepatide, sold here at $399 a month.
  • You value round-the-clock support messaging.

Skip it if

  • You'd pick the 3-month plan expecting a discount. It costs the same per month as paying monthly.
  • You only want to pay once a prescription is approved.

What's included

The monthly plan bills $249, with $199 for the first month. The 3-month plan works out to that same $249 a month, while the 6-month and 12-month plans are cheaper per month. Consult, medication, supplies, shipping and support are included in each.

Semaglutide comes as a weekly injection you give yourself. Synergy's FAQ says a provider reviews your progress before each refill and may adjust the dose.

Lion MD doctors, led by Dr. Ana Lisa Carr and Dr. Kelly Tenbrink, handle the medical side. Four pharmacies are named as partners, among them Strive and Epiq Scripts. Charges show up under CareValidate, the billing platform.

From sign-up to refills

  1. Complete the health questionnaire, starting with height, weight and your goal weight.
  2. Pick semaglutide and a billing cycle on the plan screen.
  3. Enter your address and card. You're charged a fee for the first telehealth visit.
  4. A provider in your state reviews the intake and decides on a prescription.
  5. The pharmacy ships to your door. Before each refill, the provider checks in on your progress.

What's good, what isn't

What's good

  • Semaglutide on Synergy's 12-month plan costs much less per month than the $249 monthly rate.
  • The partner pharmacies are named in the FAQ: Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts and Casa Pharma Rx.
  • Synergy advertises unlimited 24/7 support, including messaging.

What isn't

  • A first telehealth visit fee is charged at checkout, and Synergy keeps it if no semaglutide is prescribed.
  • The 3-month plan is priced at the same $249 a month as the monthly plan.
  • The visit fee on Synergy's plan screen differs from the one on its payment screen.

A real month$249.00

A real month costs $50.00 more than the figure advertised.

There is also $59 once — Initial TeleHealth visit, charged whether or not medication is prescribed (quoted as $80 one screen earlier). You pay it a single time, so it is not part of the monthly figure above and does not change where this seller ranks.

Common questions about Synergy Rx

Is Synergy Rx legit for semaglutide?
Synergy Rx works with Lion MD physicians and four named compounding pharmacies, and its payments run through CareValidate. The semaglutide is compounded, so it isn't Wegovy or Ozempic and isn't FDA-approved.
How much does Synergy Rx semaglutide cost per month?
$199 for the first month, then $249 a month on the monthly plan. A first-visit telehealth fee is added at checkout. The 6-month and 12-month plans cost less per month.
Does Synergy Rx accept insurance?
Synergy says most insurance plans don't currently cover weight-management GLP-1 prescriptions through telemedicine. Plan to pay yourself; FSA and HSA cards work.
Can I cancel Synergy Rx?
Yes. The plan screen says plans can be canceled or changed anytime. Consult fees and shipped medication aren't refunded.
