Frequently asked questions

No. This is an informational directory of drugs and licensed telehealth providers. It does not sell medication, dispense prescriptions, or provide medical care. Any therapy requires evaluation by a licensed provider.

Every sticker price is taken from a provider's own public pages and shown with the date it was last checked and a link to the source. Prices change without notice, so treat older dates as a starting point.

The figure we compare is the total cost of a standard 3-month protocol, not just the medication. We average each provider's own cost to three months, then add any one-time consult or provider-review fee and three months of any membership. Providers who sell only by the vial are estimated at about one vial per month and marked 'est.', and where a provider does not publish a fee we fold in what is known and flag that other fees may apply.

When a provider sells a drug but does not post a price publicly, the table says 'pricing not published' rather than guessing. We never invent a number.

No. Only providers that dispense through a licensed pharmacy with a prescription are listed. Products sold as 'research use only' without a prescription involve no pharmacy or clinician and are not verified for identity or purity, so they are excluded.

A 503A compounding pharmacy prepares medication for an individual patient under a prescription. A 503B outsourcing facility is FDA-registered and compounds larger batches under federal oversight. Both dispense with a prescription. The sourcing model is shown next to each provider.

People search for these compounds, so the directory documents them with a neutral, cited overview and an accurate regulatory status. Listing a drug is not an endorsement. Where a compound cannot be legally compounded, such as retatrutide, the monograph states that plainly.
