Embody review
Compounded GLP-1s from $79 a month with free expedited delivery, HSA/FSA accepted, and a cancellation rule tied to the next shipment.
Overview
Embody lists compounded GLP-1 injections “starting at $79/month” and compounded GLP-1/GIP at “starting at $129/month,” across 4-, 12-, 24- or 52-week plans. The per-plan pricing behind those starting figures is not published, which is the main gap — the longer plans are where the $79 is likely to apply.
Clinical care is delivered by OpenLoop Health rather than in-house: “an OpenLoop Health clinician will meet with an individual after checkout to determine if they qualify.” Note the sequence — you pay, then you find out whether you qualify.
It is clear on the compounding position: “compounded medications have not been evaluated or approved by the FDA.” It states HSA/FSA approval, free expedited delivery, 24/7 care-team access, optional free care coaching, and that “you may cancel your subscription at any time before your next medication shipment.”
