Telehealth Programs & Reviews

Online weight-loss programs that include a prescription: what they cost, what you get, how they compare.

Telehealth weight loss programs are online services where a licensed clinician reviews your health history and, if appropriate, prescribes a weight-loss medication that is shipped to you or sent to a pharmacy. They differ most on three points: the medication (brand-name or compounded), what the monthly fee includes, and how much medical follow-up you get.

What you'll find here

  • Program reviews based on public pricing pages, terms and published evidence (we do not create accounts or take medications).
  • Head-to-head comparisons and decision guides for choosing a program.
  • Our monthly weight-loss program price tracker, covering 15 programs and manufacturer pharmacies.

Key facts before you compare (as of November 2026)

  • Two price models. Many programs charge a membership ($49 to $99 a month, depending on plan length) on top of the medication. Others bundle both into one price.
  • Brand-name prices are public. LillyDirect lists Zepbound® from $299 a month and NovoCare Pharmacy lists Wegovy® pens at $349 a month after an introductory offer. Some programs resell these at the same price plus their membership.
  • Compounded is cheaper but not FDA-approved. Published compounded prices ranged from about $60 to $399 a month. The FDA does not review compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide for safety, effectiveness or quality.
  • Some prices are hidden. Ro, Hims & Hers and Eden did not show checkable prices on their public pages on November 13, 2026.

Every program is assessed with the same methodology: cost transparency, medication type, clinician access, follow-up and cancellation terms. Being listed never depends on a commission. This information is general and is not medical advice; see our medical disclaimer and talk to your healthcare provider about which option, if any, fits you.
