Visit Harper MedsBoth plans say the price does not change with the dose, without hedging, and that holds. What does not hold is the unit — the same sentence sells four weeks of medication, so the charge recurs thirteen times a year rather than twelve and the annual total lands above what the monthly label suggests.

In one paragraph
The verdict
Harper makes the promise this site exists to check, and it makes it cleanly: same price at every dose, no increases, with the consultation, the prescription, the medication and the shipping folded into one figure. For someone intending to hold at a low dose that is the right structure, because the dose becomes a clinical decision rather than a budgeting one. Read the unit before you budget, though. The plan is sold as a month and delivers four weeks, which is a thirteenth charge nobody plans for and roughly an extra eight percent on the year. That is not hidden — it is written on the same card as the price — but it is written in a way most readers will slide past. The other limit is that the flat rate is a floor rather than a ceiling: both plans read "From", and no second rung is published to show what sits above. And no pharmacy is named, so you cannot check who compounds the drug until after you have committed.
Microdosing is off-label and unproven — decide with a clinician. Prices are as published by the provider when we last checked; confirm current terms before you buy.
Who it suits, and who it does not
A good fit if
- You are holding at a low dose and want a price that will not move when your dose does.
- You want the consultation, the prescription and shipping inside one figure rather than itemized later.
- You would rather not be charged at all if a doctor declines to prescribe — payment is held until approval.
Look elsewhere if
- You are budgeting by the calendar. The cycle is four weeks, so the year holds thirteen charges, not twelve.
- You want to know who compounds your medication before you order. No pharmacy is named.
- You need to know the ceiling. Both plans are quoted "From", with no upper rung published.
What it actually costs
Price as published
$149/mo sema · $196/mo tirz, flat at every dose
- Vs median
- $26/mo below the $175 median across the 299 of 548 programs here that publish a plain monthly rate
- Market
- $59–$1,300/mo is the full published spread on this site
- Structure
- Same price at every dose
One stated price across doses. A lower dose does not automatically reduce the bill. Compare the complete medication, membership, laboratory and shipping quotes before assuming another plan costs less.
113 of the 548 programs here price a small dose this way. Both plans state flatly that the price does not change with the dose, so a patient holding at a quarter dose pays what a patient at a full dose pays. That cuts both ways and the site says so honestly: there is no penalty for titrating up, and no saving for staying low. The economics that actually matter here are in the billing unit rather than the dose — the recurring charge covers four weeks, not a calendar month, so the plan bills thirteen times in a year and the true annual cost sits meaningfully above the figure the monthly label suggests.

What it does well
- Flat pricing at every dose, stated without qualification — "Same price for ALL doses — no price increases" — so holding at a quarter dose is not penalized and moving up is not punished
- One figure covers the consultation, the prescription, the medication and shipping, with no membership or separate visit fee layered on top
- Both molecules carry a published rate at the point of selection rather than hiding the price behind an intake quiz
- Payment is authorized but held at checkout until a doctor approves the prescription, so an unapproved patient is not charged and left to chase a refund
Pharmacy, labs and oversight
Harper Meds does not publicly identify the pharmacy that fills its prescriptions. No bloodwork is required before you start. A clinician review is included in the price.

FDA warning letter
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a warning letter to Harper Meds in June 2026. It is addressed to Nexus Health Solutions LLC dba Harper Meds — search that name, not ours, to find it. We are not summarizing what it says — read it at the source. This does not change how Harper Meds is listed here or whether we are paid for a click to it, and we would rather you knew both of those things at once.
How the program works
Harper Meds sells compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide as a single all-inclusive subscription per molecule: the consultation, the prescription, the medication and shipping are bundled into one recurring figure, and that figure does not move as the dose goes up. The flat-price claim is stated plainly and without qualification — "Same price for ALL doses — no price increases" — which makes it the rare pricing promise a low-dose patient can actually rely on. The catch is not in the promise but in the unit: the same sentence that bundles everything also says the plan covers four weeks of medication, so the "month" being priced is a 28-day cycle that recurs thirteen times a year. Prescriptions ship from an unnamed partner pharmacy after a doctor reviews an online intake.
The honest cons
THE MONTH IS FOUR WEEKS. "From $149/month" buys "4 weeks of medication", which recurs 13 times a year rather than 12 — about $1,937 a year on semaglutide against the $1,788 the headline implies, and about $2,548 against $2,352 on tirzepatide
- The flat price is a floor — both plans read "From", and no second rung is published to show what, if anything, sits above it
- No pharmacy is named; the site refers only to "our partner pharmacy", so a patient cannot check who compounds the drug before ordering
- No LegitScript seal is displayed
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved, and intentional microdosing is off-label and unproven
