Options Medical Weight Loss review
I want to be fair here, because this one does something I wish more of them did: it admits the advertised number is not the number. The FAQ says the cost "will vary depending on the specific plan and the level of support you need." So $199 and $399 are where it starts and nobody will tell me where it stops. Also, keep your eye on the third thing in that row — phentermine at $149 is not a GLP-1.

How I scored Options Medical Weight Loss
Every factor here comes from Options Medical Weight Loss's own pricing, its disclosures and the signup I walked, and the six add up to the 46/100 Mom-Tested Score on the same weighted six-factor method I use on every provider — never nudged by whether a provider pays us.
Scores low: pinning down the real ongoing number takes work.
Scores low: whether it reaches you is the open question.
Scores low on choice — the medication menu is narrower here.
Exit terms are the weak point: lock-in, notice periods, or a cancellation you have to chase.
Scores low here: getting started asks more of your week than most.
Support is the weakest part of this provider's score.

I read this on 18 August 2026. The GLP-1 program is advertised from $199 a month and the tirzepatide one from $399, and then the FAQ says the cost "will vary depending on the specific plan and the level of support you need, so we encourage you to contact us to discuss." Both are floors with a ceiling nobody will publish, and that is how I have recorded them. Phentermine, at $149 in the same row, is not a GLP-1. Two things I liked: it is a clinic network where coaching and blood work come with the program rather than as upsells, and although it does not bill insurance itself it will send a prescription to a local pharmacy that does — which most of this cash-pay market will not do. Two I did not: the cancellation policy has an unfilled template variable in it, charging "$20 amount" for a same-day cancellation, and the 17% average weight loss claim has no source. Its Terms are a stock practice template naming a software vendor, so the company name — Options Medical Clinical, PLLC — comes from the privacy policy. FDA name searches turned up only leads on the common words in its name, none of them this practice; the domain search is clean.
What to expect when you sign up
I walked Options Medical Weight Loss'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.
- 1The signup call to action stays on optionsmedicalweightloss.com (https://optionsmedicalweightloss.com/get-your-free-consultation/)
- 2The intake responded HTTP 200 when checked on 2026-08-21
- 3Walked to the intake entry only. No personal information was submitted, so nothing past the entry screen is asserted here
What I noticed
- A monthly price is visible on the public homepage before any intake — you do not have to hand over information to see a number
Pricing
Prices re-verified
| Medication | Monthly | Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Compounded semaglutide | $199 | GLP-1 program — starting price only"Starting at $199/mo". ⛔ The FAQ states the program cost "will vary depending on the specific plan and the level of support you need", so this is a floor with an unpublished ceiling. |
| Compounded tirzepatide | $399 | TRZ program — starting price only"Starting at $399/mo", under the same unpublished-ceiling caveat. |
HSA and FSA usually work for this — worth checking your own plan. The prices here are what Options Medical Weight Loss's public disclosures showed at last review, and they change often; confirm the current number on Options Medical Weight Loss's own site.
What I like
- It says the price varies with the plan instead of dressing the floor up as the fare
- The practice that runs it is named in the privacy policy
- Weekly coaching and progress tracking are in the program, not sold on top
- It will send a prescription to a local pharmacy that takes your insurance, even though it does not bill insurance itself
- Blood work is part of the premium tier
The caveats
- ⛔ Neither number is a price — both are floors, and the ceiling is not published
- ⛔ There is an unfilled template variable live in the cancellation policy: "you will be charged $20 amount"
- Phentermine at $149 sits right next to the GLP-1 programs and is a completely different drug
- "The average patient loses 17% of body weight in six months" is their own number with nothing behind it
- The Terms are a stock template naming a software company, so the entity has to come from somewhere else
- No list of states, no pharmacy named
What I actually think of Options Medical Weight Loss
I want to be fair here, because this one does something I wish more of them did: it admits the advertised number is not the number. The FAQ says the cost "will vary depending on the specific plan and the level of support you need." So $199 and $399 are where it starts and nobody will tell me where it stops. Also, keep your eye on the third thing in that row — phentermine at $149 is not a GLP-1. It runs about $199/month.
I look at Options Medical Weight Loss the way moms actually have to — not just the real monthly number, but nursing and pregnancy timing and canceling without a fight. That's the stuff a generic weight-loss review skips right over.
What Options Medical Weight Loss really costs
- Compounded semaglutide — GLP-1 program — starting price only: $199/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide — TRZ program — starting price only: $399/mo
That's about in line with the ~$179/month middle of my shortlist.
Which meds Options Medical Weight Loss prescribes
Options Medical Weight Loss prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide — the two with the strongest published weight-loss numbers, and having both on one account genuinely matters if insulin resistance is in the mix (which it often is with PCOS or after gestational diabetes), because that's when tirzepatide tends to be the better fit. 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 Options Medical Weight Loss is — and isn't — for
A good fit if…
- you might need to move between semaglutide and tirzepatide as your body and hormones shift.
Look elsewhere if…
- you specifically want an FDA-approved brand pen with its own pregnancy and lactation labeling.
- you want to be able to cancel without a fight — the exit terms are the part of the fine print I'd read twice here.
- you'd rather a prescriber actually talk through nursing and pregnancy timing with you — that's what my #1 pick, CoreAge Rx, is built to do.
Can you trust it?
I'll be honest: I couldn't verify much — Options Medical Weight Loss publishes little about how the program actually runs, so you're buying on price and trust in its partners. 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?
Options Medical Weight Loss is a reasonable option — weigh it against the picks below on nursing and pregnancy timing and canceling without a fight. 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 wants an actual clinic behind the prescription and does not mind ringing them to find out the price.
If Options Medical Weight Loss 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 Pallas HealthMom-Tested Score86/100B+
Pallas is one of the few places that will sell you either the cheap compounded route or the real brand-name pen without making you pick a provider first — compounded semaglutide works out to about $199 a month and tirzepatide about $299, while actual Zepbound, Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro sit alongside them at cash-pay prices from $1,069. The price genuinely doesn't climb as you titrate, Pallas says so plainly on its own site, and the clinician, dose adjustments, check-ins and messaging are all inside that one number with no membership fee stacked on top. Two clinicians are named and both check out in the federal NPI registry, the LegitScript badge it displays is a real one, and it publishes an actual refund policy — full refund if a clinician turns you down, and a $5 processing fee if you cancel a qualifying payment — which is more paperwork than most of this market bothers with. The two things to know before you commit: it bills every 12 weeks in $597 and $897 chunks rather than monthly, and it never names its compounding pharmacy.
- 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.

- As I last checked, Options Medical Weight Loss's pricing starts around $199/month (From $199/mo, with an unpublished ceiling semaglutide, From $399/mo, with an unpublished ceiling tirzepatide). Confirm the current, all-in number on Options Medical Weight Loss's own site before you commit — these move.
- Is Options Medical Weight Loss okay to use while I'm breastfeeding?
- No — and that's true of every GLP-1, compounded or brand: none is established as safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding, and the labels say don't. Options Medical Weight Loss is no exception. Plan any GLP-1 for after weaning and talk the timing through with your own clinician. I'm a mom, not a doctor.
- Does Options Medical Weight Loss have both semaglutide and tirzepatide?
- Yes — Options Medical Weight Loss offers both. Tirzepatide's dual GIP/GLP-1 action is often the one clinicians reach for when insulin resistance drives weight, which matters if you've got PCOS or a history of gestational diabetes.
- Where does Options Medical Weight Loss land on your list?
- Options Medical Weight Loss scores 46/100 on the Mom-Tested Score (ranked #266), which weights the six things that actually matter when you're doing this around kids. My #1 pick, CoreAge Rx, leads the list — worth seeing how they stack up.
Pricing, states and verification reflect Options Medical Weight Loss's public disclosures at last review; the Mom-Tested Score is one mom's editorial judgment per the published method. This is background reading, not medical advice — GLP-1 medications are not established as safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding. See my medical disclaimer and how I'm funded.
