Peter MD
Physician-prescribed tirzepatide with a low $149 entry — after which it's billed quarterly, not monthly, and a broad state exclusion list applies.
$149 first mo, then $249/mo (billed quarterly)
Check Peter MD availabilityCielo: $249/month for tirzepatide and a genuinely low $115/month figure both appear on the site, consistent with its positioning as one of the cheaper compounded 3-month-bundle options in this category. Every fact here comes from the company's own published program.
What Cielo is
Cielo is a compounded-GLP-1-only telehealth platform, offering semaglutide and tirzepatide with no brand-name drugs and no TRT, hair, or mental-health add-ons — a focused, single-purpose alternative to the multi-vertical platforms common in this category. An online intake is reviewed by a licensed clinician.
§ Cielo — Confirmed Pricing and What's Undisclosed
| Item | Status |
|---|---|
| Tirzepatide | $249/mo, flat across doses |
| Semaglutide bundle | $115/mo |
| Pharmacy / accreditation | Not named; no LegitScript badge found |
What Cielo costs
Tirzepatide is $249/month, and a $115/month figure appears on the site, consistent with roster data describing it as a 3-month semaglutide bundle price — among the lowest such bundle prices this site has documented. Pricing is a single flat rate across all doses, simplifying titration planning since the number doesn't change as you move up the dose ladder.
The compounding pharmacy question
Cielo's clinical care runs through MD Integrations, a shared third-party network used by many brands in this category — not a proprietary in-house clinical team. The specific compounding pharmacy itself isn't named; the site refers only to "regulated FDA pharmacy partners."
The brand-vs-compounded question
Cielo dispenses compounded tirzepatide only — no brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound option is offered. Compounded tirzepatide is pharmacy-made, not itself an FDA-approved finished drug, and was not the specific product studied in the pivotal trials. See our guide to whether compounded tirzepatide is still legal in 2026 for the regulatory picture.
How the care model holds up
Cielo's real strengths: among the lowest 3-month bundle prices in this category, a single flat price across all doses, and a published corporate address (St. Petersburg, FL) and customer-service phone number. The trade-offs: this review found no LegitScript, NABP.pharmacy, or HIPAA badge on the homepage, the pharmacy partner isn't named, the state coverage list isn't published, and clinical care runs through a shared third-party network rather than an in-house team. As with any GLP-1 program, confirm your state's coverage and ask about the specific compounding pharmacy before committing; tirzepatide carries labeled warnings for acute pancreatitis, gallbladder disease, and a boxed thyroid C-cell tumor warning — see our guides on Zepbound side effects, the gallbladder risk, and the thyroid cancer warning.
Does the drug work? (Separate from the provider)
Judge the provider on price, oversight and disclosure; judge the molecule on its trials. Tirzepatide's are strong — roughly 15–21% of body weight over 72 weeks in SURMOUNT-11, and better than semaglutide head-to-head2 — but they were run on the brand drug at FDA-approved doses. Our tirzepatide evidence guide has the full picture.
The honest verdict
Cielo's confirmed low bundle pricing and single-purpose GLP-1 focus make it a straightforward, no-frills option, but the absence of any accreditation badge and an unnamed pharmacy partner warrant a direct ask before committing. If accreditation and named pharmacies matter more to you, compare it against BiltRx or Care Clinics. For a genuinely verified LegitScript seal number you can check yourself, see Coby Health. And for a named, real-office provider whose primary business is actually allergy care rather than weight loss, see Curex. For a newer platform with a required per-order fee worth budgeting for, see ElitePhysiqMD. See our best tirzepatide providers ranking for the full field.
