Read our full Ro Body review

Ro Body at a glance

  • Ro Body offers semaglutide and tirzepatide, including brand-name options.
  • We found a brand-name price for Ro Body ($298 a month) but no compounded recurring price to quote.
  • Ro Body lets you start without a live video visit.
  • Where it serves: Not published — no state list anywhere on its own site.

Why you might look past Ro Body

  • The two figures Ro leads with are the two you will not pay: '$39 to start' is the first month only, and 'as low as $74/mo' requires prepaying twelve months. The standing monthly membership is $149
  • Medication is billed separately on top of the membership — Ro's own words are 'The cost of medication is not included in the Ro Body membership fee'
  • Medication prices vary by dose: Wegovy pills cost $149, $199 or $299; Zepbound KwikPen costs $299, $399 or $449 with the manufacturer offer. The membership rate depends on plan length rather than dose.

Who Ro Body suits

A mom who wants FDA-approved Wegovy or Zepbound rather than a compounded version, and who will do the arithmetic on membership plus medication before she starts.
