$299/mo semaglutide, $399 tirzepatide
Visit tru Weight LossNothing on the page attaches a dose to a price, so the low-dose question cannot be answered before you pay. The advertised rate is not month-to-month for the first quarter. And the headline weight-loss claim compresses a seventy-two-week trial result into four months.

In one paragraph
The verdict
You cannot find out what a quarter dose costs here, because not one milligram figure appears anywhere on the page. What you get instead is two plain package prices with no hedge and no ladder to decode, which is worth something — and tru states its three-month minimum openly in its own FAQ rather than springing it at checkout. It includes lab work and a first consultation in the price, and it names a real physician at a real clinic address instead of gesturing at a network of providers. Two things will cost you. The advertised rate is not month-to-month: you are committed for a quarter before you can cancel, and nothing says whether the rate holds afterwards. And the headline claim — up to twenty percent of body weight in four months — is a seventy-two-week trial result, which is about seventeen months, not four.
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 want one plain price per molecule with no starting-at hedge and no ladder to decode.
- You want lab work and a first consultation inside the price.
- You want a named physician at a named clinic rather than an anonymous provider network.
Look elsewhere if
- You are taking less to spend less. No dose is published against either price.
- You want to leave after one month. You are committed for three.
- You planned to pay with an HSA or FSA card. Neither is accepted.
- You are relying on the headline weight-loss figure. It comes from a trial that ran far longer than four months.
What it actually costs
Price as published
$299/mo semaglutide, $399 tirzepatide
- Vs median
- $124/mo above 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
- Standard plan, self-directed low dose
No low-dose product of its own. Starting low means asking for a smaller amount inside a standard plan, at the standard plan's price.
235 of the 548 programs here price a small dose this way. Publishes no milligram figure and says nothing either way about dose and price, so there is no way to tell whether the price is flat or follows the dose. Its two package rates are plain, with no hedge or ladder — genuinely simpler than most — alongside a three-month minimum commitment stated openly in its FAQ. Its headline outcome claim attributes a seventy-two-week trial result to four months of treatment.

How the program works
tru Weight Loss sells compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide as weekly injections in two packages, each including the medication, monthly physician supervision and nutrition support. Prices are published openly with no starting-at hedge and no prepay ladder, though a three-month minimum subscription applies before cancellation. It operates from a physical clinic at 12321 Middlebrook Road, Germantown, Maryland, with Neha Grover, MD named as the physician, and includes a free initial telehealth consultation and free lab work in the package price. No compounding pharmacy is named.
The honest cons
NOT ONE MILLIGRAM FIGURE APPEARS ANYWHERE ON THE PAGE, and no dose statement of any kind is published in either direction, so what a low dose costs cannot be established before paying
- THE HEADLINE CLAIM COMPRESSES THE TRIAL. "Lose Up To 20% Of Your Body Weight In Just 4 Months", repeated as "patients, on average, lose up to 20.9% of body weight in just four months" — the 20.9% figure is the SURMOUNT-1 tirzepatide result at 72 weeks, about seventeen months rather than four
- THE ADVERTISED RATE IS NOT MONTH-TO-MONTH: "A 3 month subscription is required after which you can cancel at any time"
- "We do not accept insurance, HSA or FSA cards at this time"
- No week count is published against "a month", so an annual cost cannot be computed
- Whether the $299 and $399 rates hold after the required three-month term is not stated
- No compounding pharmacy is named — only "sourced from US-licensed compounding pharmacies"
- States served are not published
- The footer reads "Copyright 2024"
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved, and intentional microdosing is off-label and unproven

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.
