Compounded semaglutide
Vital Edge review
Vital Edge charges $350 a month for compounded semaglutide, and that one figure covers the physician consult, the medication and shipping. Its program card says the fee doesn't rise with your dose. You aren't charged until a clinician approves your prescription.
Is it right for you?
Worth a look if
- You want one monthly figure that already includes the consult and shipping.
- You'd like to keep your card on file without being charged until you're approved.
- You live near Chattanooga and like the idea of a provider based in Tennessee.
Skip it if
- You want the compounding pharmacy named before you pay.
- You don't want to pay anything if the clinician turns you down.
- You want insurance to pay directly rather than filing for reimbursement yourself.
What's included
The Compounded Semaglutide program is four weekly injections a month for $350, billed again each month. Vital Edge describes it as a flat monthly fee with no upcharge based on dosage. A 3-month bundle costs less per month, billed every 3 months.
Medication ships to your door each month in temperature-controlled packaging from licensed partner pharmacies. Vital Edge serves Chattanooga, Tennessee, and offers virtual care nationwide. The same menu includes oral semaglutide capsules and brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy and Rybelsus, each priced separately.
From sign-up to refills
- Fill in the 5-step intake: basic info, medical history, program, checkout and review.
- Pick a consultation by email or text, video or phone. Vital Edge says email and text is usually fastest.
- Save a card at checkout. Vital Edge says it isn't charged when you submit the form.
- After the consult, your payment is processed only if a clinician approves the prescription, and the medication is prepared for shipment.
