Provider review

TMates review

Publishes the dose range its flat price covers — so the claim can be checked.

The selector lists 0.25 through 2.4 mg beside a "Same Price All Doses" badge. Hold the lowest dose and you pay what the highest costs.

In one paragraph

The verdict

Almost every provider here claiming one price at every dose declines to say which doses. TMates says. Its plan selector carries a "Same Price All Doses" badge and, directly beneath the four plan lengths, a dosage row naming every strength the price covers, from a quarter of a milligram up to the top of the range. That candour is worth crediting, and it is also what makes the structure legible: a patient deliberately holding the lowest dose is buying roughly a tenth of the drug for the identical monthly figure. The badge reads as reassurance and functions, for this site's reader, as a cost. Two other things to hold. The cheapest figure it advertises is a twelve-month commitment charged in one payment, and the month-to-month rate is more than half again as much — so the number that catches the eye is not the number most people pay. And injectable and oral are priced identically, which is admirably route-neutral but comes with no milligram figure on the oral side, so the equivalence between the two is asserted rather than shown.

Who it suits, and who it does not

A good fit if

  • You expect to titrate up to the top of the range and would rather the bill did not climb with the dose
  • You want the dose range a flat price covers published, so the claim can be checked instead of trusted
  • You want the choice between an injection and an oral form to be clinical rather than financial
  • You will genuinely hold a twelve-month plan and can pay it in one charge

Look elsewhere if

  • You are microdosing to spend less — this is the clearest documented case here of a low dose costing exactly what a full dose costs
  • You are comparing headline figures: the cheapest one here is an annual prepay, and the month-to-month rate is substantially higher
  • You want the dispensing pharmacy named before you order
  • You are choosing the oral form on dose grounds, since no milligram figure is published for it

What it actually costs

Price as published

Compounded semaglutide, one price whatever the dose, with the dose selector printing 0.25 mg · 0.5 mg · 1 mg · 1.7 mg · 2.4 mg: 1 Month $249 · 3 Months $217/mo ($650) · 6 Months $175/mo ($1,050) · 12 Months $158/mo ($1,900) · injectable and oral are the same price · stated on the page as "Free Shipping | Cancel Anytime"

Vs median
$80/mo above the $169 median across the 242 of 373 programs we track that publish a plain monthly rate
Market
$59–$1300/mo is the full published spread in our ranking
Structure
Same price at every dose

One figure regardless of how much drug you take. Reassuring if you expect to titrate upward, and the least economical structure on this page if you do not: a quarter dose costs what a full one does.

88 of the 373 programs we track price a small dose this way. The row records one price across a PUBLISHED dose range — 0.25 through 2.4 mg on the product's own selector — so this is the flat structure in its most verifiable form. A patient holding the lowest dose pays the identical figure as one at the top, and unusually we can prove it from the provider's own page rather than inferring it.

What it does well

  • Publishes the actual dose range the flat price covers — 0.25 mg to 2.4 mg — so the "same price at every dose" claim can be checked rather than taken on trust
  • The month-to-month rate is shown first and plainly, not hidden behind the prepay rungs
  • Injectable and oral are priced identically, so the route is a clinical choice rather than a budget one
  • Every prepay rung prints its total alongside the monthly figure, so the commitment is visible
  • Says "Cancel Anytime" and includes shipping in the price

Pharmacy, labs and oversight

TMates 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.

How the program works

TMates sells compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as a doctor-supervised weight-loss program, in either injectable or oral form at the same price, with medication and ongoing support included. Its plan selector is unusually explicit: it carries a "Same Price All Doses" badge and, directly beneath the four plan lengths, a dosage row listing every strength the price covers — 0.25 mg through 2.4 mg. Most providers making the same claim never publish the range it applies to.

The honest cons

THIS IS THE STRUCTURE THIS SITE EXISTS TO FLAG, and TMates publishes enough to prove it: a patient deliberately holding 0.25 mg/week pays exactly what a patient at 2.4 mg pays — nine to ten times the drug for the same money. The badge reads as a feature and is a cost to anyone intending to stay low
  • The cheapest advertised figure is a twelve-month commitment charged as $1,900 upfront; the real month-to-month rate is $249, which is 58% higher
  • No compounding pharmacy is named on the product page
  • No milligram figure is attached to the oral form, so the equivalence between routes is asserted rather than shown
  • Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved, and intentional microdosing is off-label and unproven

How it compares

TMates is one of 373 low-dose GLP-1 programs we track, and 242 of them publish a monthly rate you can read before signing up. The ranking lists every published price on one screen, ordered with the companies that pay us first — a mechanism we state there, on the page it applies to.

Intentional GLP-1 microdosing is off-label and unproven — no randomized trial has established that a sub-label dose does anything, and any dose belongs with a clinician who knows your history. If you are going to have that conversation, have it with real numbers.
