Collective advertises $59/mo compounded semaglutide and $69/mo compounded tirzepatide plus a $199 annual membership after a 21-day free trial. Spread over a full year that is $75.58/mo and $85.58/mo by our calculation — below GobyMeds' $91/mo starter equivalent — but it changes what you pay on day one and what renews.
Entry prices keep each provider's term and conditions. Rows marked est. are our calculations from published terms; confirm current prices on each provider's checkout before ordering.

Include the annual membership when you compare Collective's medication price:
GobyMeds' compounded semaglutide starter is $274 for 3 months ($91/mo) and compounded tirzepatide is $374 ($124/mo), with no membership: lower than Collective over three months, higher over a full year at the lowest dose tier. The trial timing and any proration of the annual fee change the three-month comparison, so check Collective's terms before deciding. The cost-over-time module on this page shows both lines at the horizon you pick.
GobyMeds prices on this page are first-order prices with code COMPARE25 applied ($25 off). The regular 3-month starter prices are $299 for compounded semaglutide ($99/mo) and $399 for compounded tirzepatide ($133/mo); each 3-month starter is a 90-day supply, and every order earns loyalty credit toward the next one.
Published terms as we recorded them, with the source for each line.
Don't get locked into a plan that doesn't work for you. Your dose can change after your first 3 months — your provider will work with you to adjust your medication for your goals. Every order is a single purchase, so the price you see is the price you pay.
Answers about this provider, then the questions we get on every comparison.
Assuming 12 months of medication plus one $199 membership, compounded semaglutide totals $907 and compounded tirzepatide $1,027 (our calculation). That averages $75.58 or $85.58 per month, but the membership is billed annually after the 21-day trial.¹²
Yes — $199 per year, billed annually after a 21-day free trial. The membership renews; Collective says you can cancel anytime.¹
Over a full year at the lowest dose tier, yes by our calculation ($907 vs GobyMeds' compounded semaglutide orders); over three months, no ($376 vs $274 with code COMPARE25, or $299 regular). The difference is whether you pay a year's membership on day one and let it renew.²
Collective advertises the same medication price at any dose — $59/mo for compounded semaglutide and $69/mo for compounded tirzepatide. GobyMeds' 3-month prices step by dose tier and show the full price before you pay.¹
Collective (Health For Everyone Inc. d/b/a CollectiveOS) is an established telehealth service with published pricing and terms. This page compares its published prices and terms with GobyMeds'; it isn't a claim about quality of care.¹
Yes. Start the free eligibility check and tell the provider your current medication and dose; a licensed provider will determine whether continuing at that dose is appropriate. Check your Collective membership renewal date first.
Brand-name drugs like Wegovy® and Zepbound® are FDA-approved products from Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly. Compounded medications are prepared by licensed pharmacies for an individual patient based on a provider's prescription; they are not FDA-approved and are not reviewed by the FDA for safety or efficacy. That distinction is a large part of why cash prices for compounded medication are lower. GobyMeds offers both — your provider will discuss which is appropriate for you.
Two reasons. First, GobyMeds' entry prices are for compounded medication; providers whose public offer is brand-name medication are selling a different, more expensive product class. Second, GobyMeds has no membership fee, so there's no second recurring charge stacked on top of the medication — the price includes the provider visit, the medication and shipping.
No. GobyMeds has no membership fee, and every order is a single purchase: you see the full price for your plan before you pay, and nothing bills you in the background. The 3-month starters are $299 for compounded semaglutide and $399 for compounded tirzepatide, all in — $274 and $374 on a first order with code COMPARE25.
GobyMeds prices each plan as a total for its dose tier and supply length, and every plan shows its full price before you pay. Your provider will work with you to adjust your medication for your goals, and you're never asked to prepay more than the order in hand — plus every order earns loyalty credit toward the next one — $30 on a starter bundle.
Code COMPARE25 takes $25 off any first order — $274 instead of $299 for the compounded semaglutide starter ($91/mo), $374 instead of $399 for compounded tirzepatide ($124/mo). One use per customer, applied at checkout. The GobyMeds prices on these pages already have the code applied and say so; the regular prices are shown alongside them, so you can compare either way.
No. GobyMeds is cash-pay: no insurance, no prior authorizations, no copay surprises. HSA and FSA cards are accepted on every plan.
No, and be cautious of anyone who implies otherwise. A licensed provider reviews your health history and determines whether treatment is appropriate for you. The eligibility check is free, and you only pay if a provider prescribes — your card isn't charged until your medication ships.
Many GobyMeds patients switched from another telehealth service. Mention your current medication and dose in the intake, and your provider will review whether continuing at your current dose is appropriate. Check your current provider's renewal date so you can cancel on your terms.
Every page shows the date its competitor prices were last verified, and every figure is footnoted with its source and access date. Rows marked est. are our calculations from a provider's published terms, not prices it quotes as one number. Telehealth pricing changes often — especially promotional rates — so always confirm a provider's current price on its own checkout page, and if you spot an error, email us.
It means the provider doesn't publish that figure as one number, so we built it from its published terms — for example, adding a membership fee to a medication price, or dividing a prepaid total by the months it covers. Each calculation's inputs and the pages they came from are listed in the sources at the bottom of the page.
Looking for a Collective alternative without the annual membership? GobyMeds never asks you to pay for a year up front: one all-in total per order, no membership, and every order a single purchase with loyalty credit earned toward the next one. Your provider will determine whether compounded semaglutide or compounded tirzepatide is appropriate for you.
Code COMPARE25 takes $25 off a first order on these pages, and every order earns loyalty credit toward the next one — $30 on a starter bundle.
You only pay if a licensed provider prescribes. Your card isn't charged until your medication ships — a temporary hold is placed at checkout and released, typically within 24 hours depending on your bank, if you're not eligible.
