Actin review
A single semaglutide-plus-B12 product (Actin's own site labels it SKU COMP-GLP1) with no tirzepatide, priced $169/mo month-to-month, about $143/mo if you commit to 3 months, and about $116/mo on the 6-month plan — numbers I found buried in the site's own client-side app data rather than plainly stated on the page — inside a broader hormone, sexual-wellness, and hair-health platform where GLP-1 is one product line among several rather than the main focus, with no LegitScript badge, no PCAB accreditation, no named compounding pharmacy, no lab work, and no video visit required, and the actual dollar figure stays hidden until after you finish its 'GLP-1 Precision Match' intake quiz.

How I scored Actin
Each factor is scored from Actin's real pricing, disclosures and the actual signup, then combined into the 40/100 Mom-Tested Score by the same weighted six-factor method I use on every provider — never nudged by whether a provider pays us.
Scores low here: getting started asks more of your week than most.
Scores low: pinning down the real ongoing number takes work.
Scores low on choice — the medication menu is narrower here.
Scores low: whether it reaches you is the open question.
Support is the weakest part of this provider's score.
Exit terms are the weak point: lock-in, notice periods, or a cancellation you have to chase.

Checked live 2026-08-04 by pulling actin.com's raw HTML directly (a plain fetch alone returns only an empty app shell) and reading the embedded eContext pricing JSON myself: SKU COMP-GLP1 pricePlans {price:169,term:1}, {price:429,term:3}, {price:699,term:6} — confirming $169/mo, ~$143/mo, and ~$116/mo, matching what the WLR directory had already extracted. Single-product GLP-1 offering (semaglutide + B12 only) inside a broader hormone/sexual-wellness/hair platform. No LegitScript/PCAB badge, no named pharmacy, no state list. No FDA warning letter found for Actin in the FDA's compounded-GLP1 warning-letter list (checked 2026-08-04).
What to expect when you sign up
I walked Actin's public signup funnel (August 2026) — a first-hand look at the flow. I don't create accounts, enter medical info, or check out, so this is what any visitor sees, not a patient outcome.
- 1Answer a short quiz (the 'GLP-1 Precision Match')
- 2A provider reviews your answers and recommends a plan
- 3If prescribed, medication ships from a compounding pharmacy
- 424/7 provider messaging for dose questions
What I noticed
- The site is a client-rendered app — plain fetching gets you an empty shell, so I pulled the raw page and read the pricing straight out of its own embedded JSON
- There's exactly one GLP-1 product here — compounded semaglutide with B12. No tirzepatide at all
- No live video visit, no labs, to get started
- No LegitScript or PCAB badge anywhere on the site

HSA/FSA is commonly accepted for GLP-1 telehealth — check your plan. Prices reflect Actin's public disclosures at last review and change often; confirm the current number on Actin's own site.
What I like
- Real plan-length pricing tiers, confirmed against the site's own data — no promo-vs-list-price gap I could find
- Semaglutide paired with B12 if that's the angle you want
- No video visit or labs required to start
- Committing to 6 months meaningfully lowers the price
The caveats
- No tirzepatide at all — semaglutide + B12 only
- Price is hidden until after you finish the intake quiz
- No LegitScript or PCAB badge, no named pharmacy
- State availability not disclosed, and nothing about pregnancy or breastfeeding
What I actually think of Actin
A single semaglutide-plus-B12 product (Actin's own site labels it SKU COMP-GLP1) with no tirzepatide, priced $169/mo month-to-month, about $143/mo if you commit to 3 months, and about $116/mo on the 6-month plan — numbers I found buried in the site's own client-side app data rather than plainly stated on the page — inside a broader hormone, sexual-wellness, and hair-health platform where GLP-1 is one product line among several rather than the main focus, with no LegitScript badge, no PCAB accreditation, no named compounding pharmacy, no lab work, and no video visit required, and the actual dollar figure stays hidden until after you finish its 'GLP-1 Precision Match' intake quiz. It runs about $116/month — toward the cheaper end of what I walked.
I look at Actin the way moms actually have to — not just the real monthly number, but nursing and pregnancy timing and the real monthly cost. That's the stuff a generic weight-loss review skips right over.
What Actin really costs
- Compounded semaglutide — Semaglutide + B12, month-to-month: $169/mo
- Compounded semaglutide — Semaglutide + B12, 3-month plan: $143/mo
- Compounded semaglutide — Semaglutide + B12, 6-month plan: $116/mo
That's under the roughly $166 median I found across the providers I walked — real money back in the grocery budget.
Which meds Actin prescribes
Actin prescribes semaglutide (the active drug in Wegovy and Ozempic). These are compounded from a licensed pharmacy — that's why the price stays down — but compounded GLP-1s aren't FDA-approved finished products the way Wegovy and Zepbound are, and it's worth knowing that going in.
Who Actin is — and isn't — for
A good fit if…
- money is the actual barrier and you want a low, predictable number you can plan around.
Look elsewhere if…
- you specifically want an FDA-approved brand pen with its own pregnancy and lactation labeling.
- you'd rather a prescriber actually talk timing around nursing and pregnancy timing — that's what my #1 pick, CoreAge Rx, is built to do.
Can you trust it?
My confidence is middling — the core facts hold up, but some details (per-state availability, how the program really runs) aren't fully public. With any compounded GLP-1, the most useful thing you can do is confirm which licensed pharmacy fills it and what's actually in the formulation — I explain how I weigh oversight in the scoring method.
One line that's true of every provider on this site: no GLP-1 is established as safe in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, and the labels say don't. This is me reviewing a commercial signup, not giving you a green light — the timing call is yours and your clinician's.
So, would I use it?
Actin is a genuine budget play — weigh it on nursing and pregnancy timing and the real monthly cost against the picks below. For most moms, CoreAge Rx is still the stronger all-round fit — and you can see them side by side in this head-to-head.
The bottom line for moms
Best for: A mom who specifically wants semaglutide with B12 and doesn't need tirzepatide, and who's fine finishing a quiz before seeing the real price.
If Actin isn't the one
Providers I have a referral relationship with, ordered by Mom-Tested Score — highest first. A fee never moves a score, but it does decide who shows up in this box, so it isn't everyone: my full ranking has every provider, paid or not.
- Visit CoreAge RxMom-Tested Score94/100ACoreAge RxMy #1 pick
The one I'd point a friend to first: I finished the intake in a single nap, the price on screen was the price I'd actually pay, and both semaglutide and tirzepatide were right there on one account.
- Visit Trimi HealthMom-Tested Score85/100B
The price-first pick: some of the lowest flat, all-inclusive pricing I found, in all 50 states — great if the monthly number is your whole decision and you read the annual-prepay fine print before you sign.
- Visit Gala HealthMom-Tested Score84/100B
A flat $179 for either molecule with a genuinely gentle microdosing tier — a reasonable, all-doses-included option if you can live with a yearly plan and a pharmacy it won't name.

Head-to-head & alternatives
Actin, answered
- Does Actin have tirzepatide?
- No — its only GLP-1 product is compounded semaglutide with B12 mixed in. If you specifically want tirzepatide, or semaglutide without the B12, look elsewhere.
- How much is Actin, really?
- I pulled the numbers straight from the site's own pricing data: $169/mo month-to-month, dropping to about $143/mo on a 3-month plan and about $116/mo on a 6-month plan. You won't see the number until after you finish its intake quiz.
- Is Actin accredited?
- I didn't find a LegitScript or PCAB badge, or a named compounding pharmacy — just 'state-licensed compounding pharmacies' generically. It's also a broad platform (hormones, sexual wellness, hair) rather than a GLP-1 specialist.
Pricing, states and verification reflect Actin's public disclosures at last review; the Mom-Tested Score is one mom's editorial judgment per the published method.
