Vitara RX
VitaraRx is a direct-to-consumer telehealth marketplace offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide at flat per-drug pricing across all doses — no membership or hidden fees.
Why it's a deal
- Among the lowest flat pricing in the market — $99/mo semaglutide and $149/mo tirzepatide, all doses same price
- Names its 503A pharmacy partner (Manifest Pharmacy, Greer SC) — strong supply-chain transparency
- LegitScript Certified
- Publishes the FDA compounded-medication disclaimer
- Covers 49 states with an explicit state list, not vague "most states" language
The fine print
- No corporate legal entity disclosed — only the trade name "VitaraRx"
- No named medical director — all clinical decisions made by independent providers (marketplace model)
- All sales final — no medication returns
- Per-vial mg quantity isn't clearly disclosed, making price comparisons harder
- Doesn't ship to Alaska

- Among the lowest 3-month bundle prices in compounded GLP-1 ($115/mo semaglutide)

The fine print

- State coverage list not published — can't verify all-50-state availability
- Clinical care runs through MD Integrations, a shared third-party network used by many brands
- No brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound option
