Key facts about MEDVi
- Price
- Not published — the GLP-1 page's price fields render as template code. MEDVi's 2025 announcements give $179 first month then $299 ongoing (January) against $179 a month flat (July); the $249 and $279 figures are oral-tablet prices
- Treatments
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as weekly injections or daily tablets (not FDA-approved), plus FDA-approved Wegovy® Pill and Injection and Zepbound® Injection
- Who prescribes
- CareGLP Affiliated P.C.s and OpenLoop Health, a US-licensed network OpenLoop calls 50-state; the pharmacies Triad Rx (AL), RedRock (UT) and Beaker (TX) are named, but not which fills which product
- Availability
- Terms say “certain states” and point to customer service; MEDVi's 2025 announcements say both “all 50 U.S. states” and “select states”
- Refunds
- Two different policies are live at once; both need 72 hours' notice, and shipped medication is final sale
- Ratings
- Third-party review and complaint records are set out in the reputation section below
What stands out
Strengths
- A wider menu than most GLP-1 programs: compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as weekly injections or daily tablets, and oral tirzepatide is rare.
- FDA-approved Wegovy® Pill, Wegovy® Injection and Zepbound® Injection sit on the same intake, at “$99 Membership + Medication Cost”.
- Prescribing sits with an outside network: “OpenLoop Health clinicians retain the decision to prescribe compounded GLP-1s to patients,” and OpenLoop describes a “50-state clinician network”.
- Three partner pharmacies are named with their cities and states — more disclosure than most rivals.
- The bundle includes a physician review and care plan, 1:1 coaching, a metabolic report, free shipping and 24/7 support; HSA and FSA payment is accepted.
Good to know
- MEDVi does not publish prices: on September 20, 2026 the GLP-1 page's price fields rendered as template code.
- Two cancellation and refund policies are live at once on MEDVi domains, and they set out different refund rights.
- The terms say the service covers “certain states” and ask buyers to email customer service for the list.
- For the oral tablets, the strength, salt form and supporting data are not published.
- Disputes go to binding arbitration with a class-action waiver, and shipped medication is final sale.
Our verdict
Is MEDVi worth considering?
MEDVi gives you more ways to take a GLP-1 than almost anyone else — weekly injections, daily tablets, or brand-name Wegovy® and Zepbound® — with prescribing by an outside 50-state network and three pharmacies named on the site. What it does not give you is a price: the figures on its live pages do not render, its 2025 announcements disagree, and two refund policies are live at once. Worth an intake if you want the oral option and will confirm the price, the state answer and the governing policy in writing first.
A good fit for
- Buyers who want a daily tablet rather than a weekly injection
- People who want compounded and brand-name options on one intake
- Readers who value named pharmacies and a named prescribing network
- Anyone happy to confirm price and policy in writing first
Might not fit if
- Anyone who wants to see a monthly price before starting an intake
- Anyone who needs a published list of states served
- Anyone who wants insurance billing — the medication is cash-pay
How MEDVi works
Answer the intake questionnaire
Carried forward from earlier upkeepwell research rather than re-fetched on September 20, 2026: MEDVi’s policy text says membership “begins once you have completed the intake form and paid for the first month of the Subscription Services.”
A clinician reviews your answers
Care comes from CareGLP Affiliated P.C.s and OpenLoop Health, not MEDVi. The men’s health program describes a review “within 24 hours.”
A partner pharmacy fills it
MEDVi says it “is not acting as a pharmacy” and names Triad Rx, RedRock and Beaker on its homepage.
Medication ships to your door
The page advertises “Medication shipped to door” and “Fast, free shipping,” plus a metabolic report and coaching.
The subscription renews monthly
MEDVi calls the program “no contract”. Cancellation must reach customer service at least 72 hours before the next billing date.
MEDVi pricing
MEDVi does not publish a price. On September 20, 2026 the price fields on its GLP-1 page rendered as unresolved template code rather than numbers — “GLP-1 Injections: Starting at ${seminject_sale_price}”, “GLP-1 Tablets: Starting at ${semtab_sale_price}” — so no monthly figure is readable before you enter the intake funnel.
The only MEDVi figures in public are in its own 2025 announcements, and two of them disagree. They are listed below as dated company statements, not current prices.
GLP-1 injections (weekly) — compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide
Not publishedper month
Month-to-month; MEDVi's wording is “no contract”
- Physician review and care plan
- 1:1 coaching
- Metabolic report
- Free shipping
- 24/7 support
Company statements: January 8, 2025 — $179 first month, $299 ongoing, said to include consultation, prescription, medication, shipping and support. July 30, 2025 — “Starting at $179 per month,” with no step-up. The two differ, and we found no injectable tirzepatide price on any MEDVi page as of September 20, 2026.
GLP-1 tablets (daily, dissolvable) — compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide
Not publishedper month
Month-to-month
- The same bundle as the injection option
- Described as “needle-free”
Company statement, October 14, 2025: oral semaglutide from $249 a month, oral tirzepatide from $279. Those were starting prices in a release almost a year ago; no current tablet price is published.
Wegovy® Pill, Wegovy® Injection, Zepbound® Injection (FDA-approved)
$99membership per month
Listed as “$99 Membership + Medication Cost”
- Membership and clinician access
- Brand-name medication, billed separately
The only price that renders on the live page. The medication cost on top of the $99 is not published, so the total is unknown until the funnel quotes it.
Read those figures as announcements, not quotes. None appears on the live site, and the January and July 2025 statements disagree on whether $179 is a first-month rate or the ongoing rate. The structure MEDVi describes is a discounted first month and a higher refill price: its FAQ says the program “starts at ${seminject_sale_price} for your first month… Refills are locked in at ${seminject_full_price}.” Both are placeholders, so the step-up is not published either.
One wording point to raise: the page says “No membership or hidden fees” for the compounded program while listing a “$99 Membership” for the branded options. MEDVi’s Bill of Rights says a patient may “RECEIVE AN ITEMIZED STATEMENT OF THE ACTUAL OR ESTIMATED PRICE OF THE WEIGHT-LOSS PROGRAM”. Ask for it in writing, covering the first-month price, the refill price, any medication cost on top of a membership, and your billing date.

What MEDVi offers: tablets, injections and brand-name options
MEDVi’s GLP-1 page lists five choices, a wider menu than most programs offer: “GLP-1 Injections (weekly)”, “GLP-1 Tablets (daily, dissolvable)”, “Wegovy® Pill”, “Wegovy® Injection” and “Zepbound® Injection”.
The first two are compounded preparations of semaglutide and tirzepatide. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved: the FDA “does not verify the safety, effectiveness or quality of compounded drugs before they are marketed.” MEDVi states this itself in its homepage footer — “Compound medications are dispensed by state-licensed pharmacies but are not FDA approved.” The last three are FDA-approved brand-name medicines, so if a clinician rules out a compounded preparation you need not start again elsewhere.
The oral tablets
Oral compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are the unusual part of this menu, and oral tirzepatide is rare. MEDVi announced them on October 14, 2025, markets them as “needle-free”, and states in that announcement that the tablets “are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.”
MEDVi publishes no strength, salt form, excipient list, bioavailability figure or clinical data for them. The FDA notes that salt forms “including semaglutide sodium and semaglutide acetate, are different active ingredients than are used in the approved drugs.” Ask the clinician for the strength and exact ingredient before you start.
Who prescribes, who compounds, and what MEDVi does
MEDVi, LLC is based at 131 Continental Dr, Ste 305, Newark, DE 19713. It does not deliver the care: treatment comes from “CareGLP Affiliated P.C.s” and OpenLoop Health, and MEDVi states it “is not acting as a pharmacy.”
The consent puts prescribing with that network: “OpenLoop Health clinicians retain the decision to prescribe compounded GLP-1s to patients.” OpenLoop describes a “50-state clinician network” of US-licensed providers.
MEDVi also names its pharmacies on the homepage, with addresses: Triad Rx in Daphne, Alabama; RedRock Pharmacy in St. George, Utah; and Beaker Pharmacy & Compounding in McKinney, Texas. Many GLP-1 brands name none, so this is a real advantage. Missing is the mapping: no page says which pharmacy fills which product, or whether each is a 503A pharmacy or a 503B outsourcing facility. Worth asking, since the FDA says outsourcing facilities “are subject to current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) requirements” while pharmacy compounding is not.
Two statements sit side by side. MEDVi says compounded GLP-1s “are produced in FDA-regulated facilities” while “not FDA-approved”; the FDA’s June 2026 telehealth guidance lists “claiming a compounded drug is sourced from an FDA-approved… pharmacy” among claims it tells companies not to make.
States, age, the visit and shipping
Which states
MEDVi’s answers do not line up, so here are all three. The terms on both domains say: “The Services are currently available to individuals located in certain states. To see the list of current states, please contact customer service at help@medvi.org.” The July 30, 2025 announcement claims “Service availability in all 50 U.S. states.” The October 14, 2025 one says MEDVi operates in “select states”. No list is published, so customer service is the only reliable route.
Age and the visit
You must be “at least 18 years of age or older”. The consent defines telehealth generally as care using an “audio-video interface such as videoconferencing,” but no MEDVi page says a live video appointment is required or included. The published flow is a questionnaire followed by asynchronous clinician review, with MEDVi’s men’s health program describing a doctor review within 24 hours. If a live call matters, confirm it is available first.
Shipping, support and payment
The page advertises “Medication shipped to door” with “Fast, free shipping”, “Unlimited 24/7 support with specialists”, a metabolic report and “1:1 guidance and coaching”. Free dietitian visits carry the asterisk “subject to insurance and copays eligibility to be determined at time of visit.” HSA and FSA payment is accepted; the medication is cash-pay.
Cancellation and the two refund policies
Settle this before you pay. MEDVi has two refund policies live at once, on domains it controls, and they grant different rights. The home.medvi.org version is linked from the homepage; the medvi.org version is the older path, still live and still linked from MEDVi’s men’s health program.
| Term | home.medvi.org/cancellation-and-refund-policy | medvi.org/refund-policy.html |
|---|---|---|
| Notice to cancel | “at least 72 hours prior to your next billing date” | “at least 72 hours prior to your billing date” |
| First 72 hours | Full refund if you cancel “within the first 72 hours… and you have not received any Subscription Services” | No such window appears |
| Medical disqualification | Refund where the provider disqualifies you medically | The only refund route: “disqualification by our medical provider” |
| Multi-month plans | “a refund for the months for which no medication was shipped to you” | Not addressed |
| Otherwise | “YOU WILL NOT BE ISSUED A REFUND UPON CANCELLATION FOR THE MONTH IN WHICH THE CANCELLATION OCCURRED OR FOR ANY PRIOR MONTHS” | “IN NO EVENT SHALL YOU BE ISSUED A REFUND UPON CANCELLATION OF THE SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES” |
The documents differ: the homepage version grants a 72-hour full-refund window and refunds unshipped months on multi-month plans; the legacy version recognises only medical disqualification. Both were live on September 20, 2026, and MEDVi does not say which governs a new order. Ask in writing and keep the reply.
Three points apply either way. Consult fees are non-refundable: “medical consult fees are not subject to or eligible for a refund.” Medication is final sale: “we cannot accept returns of prescription products… and all sales are final.” Both policies note federal law generally bars returning dispensed medication.
To cancel: “Contact customer service at hello@medvi.org or use the patient portal chat feature.” Disputes “WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY BY BINDING ARBITRATION”, and “YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION”. Note your billing date and cancel by email more than 72 hours ahead.
Ratings, complaints and the public record
Figures read September 20, 2026.
| Source | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Trustpilot (medvi.org) | 4.3 out of 5 from 14,781 reviews; 79% five-star, 12% one-star; “Replied to 100% of negative reviews”. Trustpilot notes MEDVi “invites their customers to review” |
| ConsumerAffairs | 3.3 out of 5 from 2,222 reviews. Recurring themes: billing and refunds, support responsiveness, delivery |
| BBB rating box | F, not accredited; file opened March 17, 2025; 723 complaints, with the rating factor stated as “Failure to respond to 126 complaint(s)” |
| BBB complaints page | 709 complaints in three years; 487 answered, 122 unanswered, 100 resolved. By type: Service 455, Billing 222, Product 28 |
The two BBB counts come from different parts of the same profile and do not agree — 723 with 126 unanswered in the rating box, 709 with 122 on the complaints page — so we report both.
Trustpilot’s own number is not the only one in circulation. The profile displayed 4.3 out of 5 on September 20, 2026; a Trustpilot search-result title read the same day said 4.4 out of 5; and MEDVi’s own Quad page advertises “Excellent 4.5 out of 5”. The three differ, and we report all three rather than picking one.
One regulatory matter: on February 20, 2026 the FDA issued Warning Letter #721455 to MEDVi, LLC concerning its marketing of compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, citing website claims that the products contain the same active ingredient as four named brand-name drugs and MEDVi-branded labelling that the letter says suggested MEDVi was the compounder, under sections 502(a), 502(bb), 301(a) and 301(c) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act; we found no close-out letter as of September 20, 2026.
What to ask before you pay
Four emailed questions do most of the work: the first-month and refill price for your product, and the medication cost on top of any membership; whether your state is served; which refund policy governs your order; and which pharmacy will fill it.
See how we review for the six criteria behind these findings. MEDVi’s men’s health program is covered separately in our Quad by MEDVi review — same company and terms, different product. For GLP-1 programs that do publish prices, see Trim Rx and Trimi, or the full GLP-1 clinic comparison. Our GLP-1 telehealth pricing guide explains these membership-plus-medication structures.
How MEDVi measures up
The same six criteria for every clinic, each tied to the facts above.
| Criterion | What we found |
|---|---|
| Clinical oversight & pharmacy transparencyWe look for: A named prescriber and pharmacy, 503A/503B status, compounding and FDA disclosures, a physical address | Three pharmacies are named with addresses and the prescribing network is identified; no page says which fills which product. |
| Pricing clarityWe look for: A recurring price and billing interval you can find before paying, extra fees, price by dose | No price renders on the live GLP-1 pages; the only public figures are in MEDVi's 2025 announcements, and two of those disagree. |
| Medication optionsWe look for: A range of clearly described treatment options | Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in injectable and oral form, plus three FDA-approved brand options on one intake. |
| Access & logisticsWe look for: A published state list, lab requirements, review time, shipping and follow-up | Free shipping, a 24-hour clinician review and 24/7 support; no state list is published and no video visit is promised. |
| Cancellation & refund termsWe look for: Refunds if a clinician declines you, refund windows, cancellation timing, arbitration clauses | Two policies are live with different refund rights; both need 72 hours' notice and shipped medication is final sale. |
| Reputation signalsWe look for: BBB and Trustpilot records, complaint volume and the themes that recur | A very large solicited review sample with a stated 100% reply rate to negative reviews, set against a much weaker complaint record; the figures are in the reputation section. |

Worth confirming
MEDVi does not publish these as of September 16–18, 2026, so they are quick questions to ask before you pay.
- Any current price: we found no injectable tirzepatide price on any MEDVi page as of September 20, 2026.
- The medication cost on top of the “$99 Membership” for the Wegovy® and Zepbound® options.
- For the oral tablets: strength, salt form, excipients, bioavailability and clinical data, plus what refills cost.
- The list of states served; the terms direct buyers to email customer service.
- Which named pharmacy fills which product, and whether each is a 503A or 503B facility.
- Whether a live video visit is ever required, any lab-work requirement, and the intake exclusion criteria.
- What “unlimited 24/7 support” covers contractually — no response time or scope is defined.
- Multi-month plan prices, although the refund policy refers to such plans.
MEDVi FAQ
