Provider review
Alan Meds review
Four ways to take one molecule, each with its own price.
Standard injection, microdose injection, oral tablet and microdose tablet — but the cheap headline figures are microdoses.
Price, exactly as they publish it
Compounded semaglutide injection at $158/month when two months are paid up front, against a $315/month regular rate. A microdose injection is $125/month and a microdose oral tablet $99/month. A full oral route runs from $215/month on six-month plans against a $305/month regular rate. Brand-name Wegovy is listed at $1,695.
Semaglutide is prescription-only and compounded semaglutide is not the FDA-approved brand product — decide with a clinician. Prices are as the provider published them when we last checked; confirm current terms before you buy.
How Semawise makes money (plainly)
Here's the honest version: some of the links on this site are affiliate links, routed through the Katalys network. Click one and go on to start a treatment or buy something, and we may earn a commission — without costing you a single penny more. That's what keeps the lights on and the answers free. The part that matters: a commission never buys a softer review, a different price, or kinder pros and cons. What it does buy is position — affiliate partners are listed ahead of providers we have no relationship with, and we say so on each board rather than only here. Want the longer version? It's all in our full disclosure.
The verdict
If the format matters more to you than the brand, this is the row to read. Alan Meds sells compounded semaglutide as a standard weekly injection, as a microdose injection, as a full oral route and as a microdose dissolving tablet, and it publishes a regular rate beside every prepaid one so the discount for committing is visible rather than implied. The trap is right in the headline: the two cheapest figures are microdoses, not standard therapeutic doses, and the standard injection's regular rate is several times either of them. The prepaid injection rate also needs two months paid up front. It is LegitScript-verified and names the class of pharmacy behind the compounding, but not the pharmacy itself, and it publishes no list of the states it serves.
The trade-off we'd want you to read first
The eye-catching $99 and $125 figures are microdoses, not standard therapeutic doses — the standard injection's regular rate is more than three times either
Who it suits, and who it doesn't
A good fit if
- You want a genuine choice of route — injection or oral, full dose or microdose — from one provider
- You are specifically exploring microdosing and want it priced openly rather than quoted on request
- You want to see a regular rate beside every discounted one before you commit
Look elsewhere if
- You are comparing on the cheapest figure, which buys a microdose rather than a standard dose
- You want a month-to-month injection price — the low one needs two months paid up front
- You need to confirm your state is served, and no state list is published
- You want the pharmacy that compounds your medication named
How the programme actually works
Alan Health Technologies, Inc. (trading as Alan Meds) is the format specialist here: personalised compounded semaglutide as a weekly injection, the same drug as a microdose injection, an oral compounded route, and a microdose oral dissolving tablet — four ways to take one molecule, each with its own price. The standard injection is $315/month at the regular rate and $158/month if you pay two months up front; microdoses are $125/month injected and $99/month as a tablet; the full oral route is $305/month regular and from $215/month on six-month plans. Brand Wegovy is listed at $1,695. It is LegitScript-verified and says its medications come from U.S. 503A and 503B pharmacies, though it names none of them and publishes no state list.

What it does well
- Four genuine routes for one molecule — standard injection, microdose injection, oral tablet and microdose tablet — which almost nothing else on this board offers
- A regular rate is published beside every prepaid rate, so the discount for committing is visible rather than implied
- LegitScript-verified, and it states the pharmacy class (503A and 503B) behind the compounding
- A brand-name Wegovy price is published rather than quoted only on request
The other trade-offs
- The $158/month injection price requires two months paid up front; month to month it is $315
- No list of served states is published anywhere on the site
- No compounding pharmacy is named — only the facility class
- Compounded semaglutide is not the FDA-approved brand product, and Alan's own $1,695 Wegovy listing shows the gap
If this one isn't it
If Alan Meds is not it, these are not our favourites and they are not the ones that pay the most — each is the provider closest to this one that does better on the axis this one does worst on. The axis is named on every card, with both providers’ own published wording underneath, so you can check the claim rather than take it.

Before you buy
Semaglutide is a prescription medicine, and the compounded version is not the same regulated product as brand-name Wegovy or Ozempic. Whatever you decide, decide it with a clinician who knows your history — and go into that conversation with real numbers.
Where this sits on the board
Alan Meds is one of 36 telehealth semaglutide programmes we track. The board puts every published price on one screen, ordered with the companies that pay us first — a mechanism we state there, on the page it applies to, rather than only in the small print.
