Medical Disclaimer
We're not doctors, and this review is not medical advice. GLP-1 medications are prescription-only and require evaluation by a licensed healthcare provider. What works for one person may not work for another, and only a clinician who knows your history can determine whether a medication is appropriate for you. See our full medical disclaimer.
What Is Wisp?
Wisp is a direct-to-consumer telehealth brand best known for sexual and reproductive health, and it extended into weight care with both prescription and over-the-counter products.
On the prescription side the pricing is genuinely competitive: reporting on the launch put compounded injectable semaglutide at $275 monthly including a consult and 28 days of medication, and Wisp's own Wegovy page lists it starting at $99/month with additional costs potentially applying.
The thing to watch is the product mix. Wisp also sells "Metabolic Support & GLP-1 Boost Capsules" starting at $54/month. These are supplements, not GLP-1 medication, and they will not do what semaglutide does. Selling both under one "weight care" heading makes it easy to conflate them.
How the Program Works
- Consultation process
- Online consultation with a Wisp-affiliated clinician, included in the published compounded injectable price per launch reporting.
- Eligibility
- Clinician-assessed for prescription products. The supplement products do not require a prescription.
- Provider involvement
- Licensed clinicians prescribe the prescription products. Support is light compared with dedicated weight clinics.
- Lab requirements
- Not published as a universal requirement.
- Pharmacy fulfillment
- Compounded medication from partner pharmacies; Wegovy through standard pharmacy channels. Wisp does not publicly name an exclusive compounding pharmacy.
- Shipping frequency
- Monthly, with subscription and one-time purchase options on the OTC products.
- Support services
- Consultation and messaging. Wisp is a product-led service rather than a care program.
Wisp Pricing
- Membership fee
- None published for the prescription products.
- Medication fee
- Launch reporting put compounded injectable semaglutide at $275 monthly, including a consult and 28 days of medication. Wisp's Wegovy page lists it starting at $99/month, noting additional costs may apply. The OTC GLP-1 Boost capsules start at $54/month on a 6-month subscription.
- Cancellation policy
- Subscription products can be managed through your Wisp account; one-time purchase options are available on the OTC line.
- Refund policy
- Not published as a general policy for prescription products.
- Insurance
- Compounded medication is cash-pay. Wegovy prescriptions may be billable to your pharmacy benefit.
- HSA / FSA
- Prescription medication and consults are commonly HSA/FSA-eligible. Dietary supplements generally are not.
Pricing details worth knowing
- The $99 Wegovy figure carries an "additional costs may apply" caveat — treat it as an entry price, not a total.
- The $54/month capsules are a dietary supplement, not a GLP-1 medication, and are not a substitute for one.
- Wisp positions itself on low cost, and the compounded injectable price including a consult is competitive.
Prices change. Every figure above was taken from Wisp's published pages or the named sources at the bottom of this review, as of August 5, 2026. Telehealth pricing in this market changes frequently, and promotional rates expire. Confirm your actual cost at checkout before enrolling.

Who Wisp May Be Best For

About Compounded GLP-1s
The FDA declared the tirzepatide shortage resolved in December 2024 and the semaglutide shortage resolved in February 2025, which ended the window for compounding pharmacies to make large volumes of copies of those drugs (503A pharmacies had until April 22, 2025; 503B outsourcing facilities until May 22, 2025). Many telehealth companies continue to offer compounded GLP-1s prescribed for an individual patient — often as a personalized dose, a microdose, or a formulation combined with a vitamin such as B12 or B6. That practice sits in a contested legal area, and the FDA has signaled further action. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved, which means they have not gone through the same review as the brand-name products.
None of that is specific to Wisp — it applies to every provider offering compounded medication. We cover the trade-offs in detail in our guide to brand-name versus compounded GLP-1s.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Wisp GLP-1 Boost capsules the same as semaglutide?
No. Those capsules are an over-the-counter dietary supplement starting at $54/month. They are not GLP-1 medication, they are not prescription products, and there is no evidence they produce the weight loss that semaglutide or tirzepatide do. Wisp's prescription weight-care products are separate.
How much is compounded semaglutide through Wisp?
Reporting on Wisp's weight-care launch put compounded injectable semaglutide at $275 monthly, which includes a consult and 28 days of medication. Wisp separately lists Wegovy starting at $99/month with a note that additional costs may apply.
The Verdict
Wisp launched a weight-care line offering compounded injectable semaglutide at $275/month including a consult and 28 days of medication, and Wegovy from $99/month. It also sells an over-the-counter "GLP-1 Boost" supplement, which is a different thing entirely.

How We Researched This Review
We compiled this review on August 5, 2026 from Wisp's own published pages plus independent reporting. We have not signed up for this service ourselves, and we say so rather than implying firsthand testing. Where Wisp does not publish a detail — refund terms, lab requirements, pharmacy partners — we've said that plainly instead of guessing.
