Factor Health MD: $149/month for tirzepatide and $99/month at the aggressive starting tier, plus a genuinely rare third GLP-1 option — liraglutide — that most DTC compounded platforms don't stock. Every fact here comes from the company's own published program.
What Factor Health MD is
Factor Health MD is a Florida-based multi-vertical telehealth platform, based in St. Petersburg, FL with a published phone number (305-930-8817) for accountability. It's a multi-product platform spanning GLP-1, longevity, vitamin injectables, and men's health, rather than a weight-loss specialist alone.
§ Factor Health MD — A Rare Three-GLP-1 Lineup
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Tirzepatide | $149/mo |
| Starting tier | $99/mo, all doses |
| Also offers | Liraglutide — a rare third GLP-1 option |
What Factor Health MD costs
Tirzepatide runs $149/month, with an aggressive $99/month starting tier including all doses. HSA/FSA is accepted — uncommon for compounded GLP-1 in this category.
A genuinely rare third GLP-1: liraglutide
Factor Health MD offers liraglutide alongside semaglutide and tirzepatide — a genuinely rare third GLP-1 option in DTC telehealth, useful specifically for patients who are sensitive to the newer molecules.
The brand-vs-compounded question
Factor Health MD dispenses compounded tirzepatide, not the FDA-approved branded product. 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
Factor Health MD's real strengths: a rare three-GLP-1 lineup including liraglutide, an aggressive $99/month starting tier, HSA/FSA acceptance, and a disclosed physical location and phone number. The trade-offs: this review found no named 503A/503B pharmacy partner, the full states-served list isn't disclosed, no named medical director is published, and the FDA compounded-medication disclaimer isn't prominently displayed. As with any GLP-1 program, ask directly about the compounding pharmacy and your state's coverage 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
Factor Health MD's rare liraglutide option and aggressive starting price are genuine positives, confirmed directly, but this review couldn't find a named pharmacy or medical director — ask directly before committing. If a named pharmacy matters more to you, compare it against EverSlim or BiltRx. For a provider whose named compounding pharmacy is real, but whose LegitScript claim links only a generic search, see NextMeds. See our best tirzepatide providers ranking for the full field.
