Provider review
StackMD review
Publishes exact prices for every dose — and openly states it can't issue refunds itself
Every dose has its own published price: semaglutide $125 to $225 across five tiers, tirzepatide $199 to $449 across six, B12 included. Its refund policy says all sales are final — and that StackMD has no authority to issue a refund at all; that is the prescribing partner's call.
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
StackMD's per-dose pricing transparency is genuinely rare in this category — you can see the exact cost of every strength before you commit, not a vague "starting at" figure. Its named legal entity and prescribing partner are real, checkable specifics too. The tradeoff to understand clearly: StackMD structurally can't resolve a refund or billing dispute itself, since that authority sits with SamaritanMD and the pharmacy — worth knowing before you assume you're dealing with a single accountable entity rather than a layered arrangement.
StackMD is not ranked on any of our rankings. This is a standalone read of what the company publishes about itself — the providers we do rank in this category are on 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 want to see the exact price for your specific dose before committing, not a "from" figure
- You want a named legal entity and prescribing partner you can independently verify
- You understand billing and refund authority sits with a separate partner (SamaritanMD), not StackMD directly
Look elsewhere if
- You want StackMD itself to have direct authority over refunds — it explicitly states it doesn't
- You want a named compounding pharmacy rather than a general "licensed third-party pharmacy" description
- You're comparison-shopping off the homepage's "starts at" figure without checking your actual dose's price
What it actually costs
What they advertise
Compounded semaglutide: $125-225 across five dose tiers on stackmdhealth.com.
What you actually pay, month to month
The $125 low end is for semaglutide; tirzepatide runs higher, $199-449 across six dose tiers, with price rising steeply from 5mg to 30mg.
The commitment trap
The lowest advertised $125 figure is the semaglutide starting dose — tirzepatide, sold on the same site, starts higher at $199 and climbs to $449.

What is included
The cheapest headline number in this category is often the one with the least attached to it. Here is what StackMD bundles in, and what it does not.
Clinician consult
Prescribing review through SamaritanMD.
Bloodwork / labs
Not published.
Follow-ups and dose changes
No cadence published.
Human support
Not published.
Injection supplies
B12 included in every semaglutide and tirzepatide formulation.
Shipping
No terms published.
Pharmacy, labs and oversight
The pharmacy
Described only as "a licensed third-party pharmacy"; no specific name disclosed.
Oversight
No cadence published.
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
All 50 states, per Terms, though provider licensing varies by state.
The honest cons
The part they would rather you skipped
StackMD's own refund policy states plainly that it "has no authority to issue refunds or resolve billing disputes on behalf of SamaritanMD," — worth understanding upfront, since billing and refund decisions sit with its prescribing partner and pharmacy, not StackMD itself.
- All sales are final with only narrow exceptions (dispensing errors, damaged shipments)
- StackMD explicitly cannot resolve refunds or billing disputes itself — that authority sits with SamaritanMD
- Compounding pharmacy never individually named
- Price rises steeply by dose — tirzepatide runs from $199 to $449 depending on strength
None of this is unique to StackMD — 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.
How it compares
The providers we rank on our semaglutide provider ranking, in the order that ranking ranks them. StackMD is not among them: it is reviewed here, not ranked there, and we would rather show you the comparison than pretend the two are the same thing.
- COCollectiveThe cheapest medication price here, on a membership the headline omits
- CoreAge RxOne price that does not move when your dose does
- BHBodybuilding Health+The deep peptide catalog is gone; the GLP-1 pricing got better
- RxSpan MDOral tablet only, at a real $179 monthly rate
- Enhance MDWrites a flat-price-at-every-dose policy down — and charges near the top for it
- Found HealthInsurance-integrated, unlike every cash-only compounder here — but $99 needs a prepay
- Direct MedsThe plainest price mechanics on either ranking, from a company with an FDA warning letter
- Synergy RxPublishes a starting number, and nothing about what it commits you to

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.
