Provider review
SkinnyRx review
Four terms published per molecule, and only the twelve-month one advertised
The "From $199 / month" across its site is the twelve-month rung; the rate you can stop paying after one month is $349 for semaglutide and $399 for tirzepatide.
Received an FDA warning letter in February 2026 — see the FDA’s warning-letter database.
Straight talk: how we earn — some, not all, of these are affiliate links; start a program through one and we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Straight about the rest, too: the write-ups say what each provider is actually worth, and a commission does not change a word of them. Full disclosure here.

The verdict
SkinnyRx prices honestly and advertises dishonestly, and the gap between the two is the whole review. Its own price table carries four terms for every product it sells: injectable semaglutide is $349 if you pay by the month, $299 on four months, $249 on six and $199 only on twelve. Injectable tirzepatide runs $399, $349, $329 and $299 the same way. That is more structure than most desks publish anywhere. But the number on every tile is "From $199 / month" — the twelve-month rung, printed with no term beside it. (Until August 2026 the tiles read "As low as $199/mo*" with an asterisk that resolved to nothing; the asterisk is gone now, and the missing term is not.) A reader comparing desks on advertised figures puts SkinnyRx near the top of this ranking on a rate that requires paying for a year up front. Two more things worth knowing. The microdose is not a cheaper way in: at every term it shares with the full dose it costs exactly the same, and its cheapest rung needs eight months rather than the twelve the full dose does. And the advertised 90-day money-back guarantee has conditions in the Terms — 90 consecutive paid days, a weight logged in the app every week, and every dose logged. What is genuinely good here is real: a once-daily tablet route on its own ladder, a straight answer on the pharmacy question that most desks dodge, and no charge if a clinician declines you, with a stated full refund within 24 to 48 hours. One last thing before you decide: an FDA warning letter was issued to its operator, Lean Rx, Inc. dba SkinnyRx, on 20 February 2026. We disclose it and do not treat it as disqualifying.
SkinnyRx appears on our tirzepatide provider ranking and our semaglutide provider ranking. Nothing on this page is a performance claim — see the evidence review for what these compounds do and do not do.
Who it is for, and who it is not
A good fit if
- You had already decided to commit to twelve months and want that rate published rather than discovered at checkout
- You will not inject — the once-daily tablet is a real product here, not a promise to discuss it with a clinician
- You want the compounding class in writing before you pay; its FAQ names 503A outright
- You want to know you will not be charged for an intake that ends in a no
Look elsewhere if
- You are comparing month-to-month rates across this ranking — SkinnyRx's are $349 and $399, not the $199 it advertises
- You want to know which pharmacy makes your medication; the class is stated but the name never is
- You want a brand-name route — brand names appear in its catalog with no purchasable price behind them
- An FDA warning letter against the operator is a dealbreaker for you
What it actually costs
What they advertise
"From $199 / month" on the injectable semaglutide tile and "From $299 / month" on tirzepatide. Neither prints the term it requires — the figures are the twelve-month rungs of a $349/$299/$249/$199 and a $399/$349/$329/$299 ladder.
What you actually pay, month to month
$349/month for injectable semaglutide and $399 for tirzepatide. The full published ladder is $349 / $299 / $249 / $199 for semaglutide across 1, 4, 6 and 12 months, and $399 / $349 / $329 / $299 for tirzepatide.
The commitment trap
The headline is the bottom rung with no term printed beside it. Read the ladder and this is a mid-priced desk with an unusually complete price structure; read the poster and it looks like one of the cheapest anywhere, which is the version that circulates. The one-time-purchase pages do the same thing a second way — $2,490 billed at once, shown as "$249/mo".
Money you will meet later
- Free shipping and unlimited provider messaging are advertised as included
- No charge if you do not qualify — payment is processed after the pre-qualification intake, with a stated full refund within 24 to 48 hours
- The advertised 90-day money-back guarantee is conditional: the Terms require 90 consecutive paid days, a weekly weight logged in the SkinnyRx app, and every dose logged
- Canceling before the end of a committed term reverses the discount you were given, per its Terms

What is included
The cheapest headline number in this category is often the one with the least attached to it. Here is what SkinnyRx bundles in, and what it does not.
Clinician consult
Yes
— US-based licensed, board-certified clinicians review an online intake, with a prescription typically written within 24 hours.
Bloodwork / labs
Not required and no lab gate is published.
Follow-ups and dose changes
Unlimited provider messaging is advertised as included.
Human support
In-app support and progress tracking are stated as part of the plan.
Injection supplies
Ships ready to use after approval.
Shipping
Free, per its own plan copy.
Pharmacy, labs and oversight
The pharmacy
Classified but not named. Its FAQ answers the question directly — "503A pharmacies are licensed by state boards of pharmacy and are FDA-compliant" — which is more than most desks put in writing, but no pharmacy name appears anywhere on the public site.
Oversight
Unlimited provider messaging is advertised as included.
Compounded peptides are not FDA-approved products, and a 503A pharmacy compounds for a named patient while a 503B outsourcing facility manufactures in batches under CGMP. Neither is a quality guarantee on its own — a named facility is simply a fact you can check, and an unnamed “partner pharmacy network” is not. Our guide to verifying a certificate of analysis covers what to ask for.
Where you can get it
47 states plus DC. No state list appears on any page, but its own code publishes one: the lazy chunk https://skinnyrx.com/assets/states-iVUoNCGg.js carries all 50 states and DC, and eight separate exclusion arrays that are each identical — Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. Its FAQ adds that "based on your health needs and state-specific requirements, you may have a quick video visit or receive a prescription directly within 24 hours."
The honest cons
The part they would rather you skipped
It publishes four terms and advertises only the cheapest, with no term printed next to it. That turns a genuinely complete price structure into a misleading headline, and it is the reason this row sits at the bottom of both boards rather than near the top where its advertised figure would put it. We earn a commission if you start a plan here, which is exactly why that sentence is in the first paragraph rather than the last.
- The advertised "$199/mo*" is the twelve-month rung with no term printed beside it; month-to-month is $349 for semaglutide and $399 for tirzepatide
- The microdose costs exactly the same as the full dose at every term they share, so it is not a cheaper way in
- The advertised 90-day money-back guarantee requires 90 consecutive paid days plus a weekly weight and every dose logged in its app
- The 503A class is stated but no individual compounding facility is ever named
- Brand names appear in the catalog with no purchasable price behind them
- An FDA warning letter was issued to the operator, Lean Rx, Inc. dba SkinnyRx, on 20 February 2026
None of this is unique to SkinnyRx — the whole category shares it. What we hold against a provider is the part it hides, and the ways vendors hide things are cataloged in our vendor red-flags guide.

A provider comparison is half the decision. The other half is whether the compound does anything for you at all — and whether it is allowed where you compete. Growth-hormone secretagogues are banned in tested sport, year-round, and a prescription does not change that.
