telos rx vs Mondae: GLP-1 Weight Loss Compared

By telos rx Editorial Team August 28, 2026
Compounded semaglutide vial, telos rx

Mondae advertises compounded semaglutide at $87 a month with no membership fee and the same price at every dose. We checked the claim properly, and it holds. Mondae is cheaper than telos rx on both injectable molecules, and their flat-dose pricing is a real structural difference rather than a marketing line. This article says that plainly, then covers the parts of their site that deserve a closer read.

The short answer

On price, Mondae wins: $87 against our $99 on semaglutide, and $126 against our $139 on tirzepatide, dropping to $75 and $124 on three-month plans. What they do not offer is a needle-free GLP-1 or a microdosed protocol, and they do not name the pharmacy that compounds their medication. Those are the trade-offs.

Check your eligibility

The $87 is real, and we are not going to squint at it

It is not an introductory rate and it is not gated behind a prepayment. Compounded semaglutide is $87 on a rolling monthly plan, and $225 for three months, which works out at $75 a month. Compounded tirzepatide is $126 monthly, or $372 across three months, about $124 a month. Our published rates are as low as $99 and $139 per month.

One clarification on their headline copy, though. "$87 a month, same price every month, any dose" is accurate for semaglutide on the monthly plan. The "from $75" figure is the three-month rate. Tirzepatide is around $124 to $126. "Any dose" means the price holds across every dose of a given medication, not that every medication costs $87.

The flat-dose pricing is the interesting part

Plenty of GLP-1 services quote a low entry price that climbs as you titrate upward. The figure that got you in the door is not the figure you pay in month six. Mondae has built the opposite. There is no dose selector on their pricing at all. The price depends only on how long a plan you take, and their copy says the rate stays the same as long as your membership stays active.

That is a genuinely good idea and we will credit it. Two honest caveats: the promise is tied to keeping your membership active, and their terms say prices are subject to change at their sole discretion. Neither is unusual, and neither makes the claim false.

Whoever you go with, the question worth asking is what month six costs at a maintenance dose, not what month one costs. Ask us that too.

What else Mondae does well

Their compounding disclosure is thorough. They state plainly that compounded medications are not approved by the FDA and are not generic versions of, or therapeutically equivalent to, the branded drugs. They carry a results disclaimer, and they even label their own dosing chart as a stylised representation rather than letting it read as a schedule. That is more care than most.

Shipping is included in the price rather than added at checkout, and they serve all fifty states. Their site displays a LegitScript seal. We found no countdown timers, fake scarcity or pressure language anywhere on the site. In this category that is worth saying out loud.

Two things to read carefully first

The first is the consultation fee. Their FAQ says you will not be charged until a physician approves your treatment. Their refund policy says telehealth consultation fees are non-refundable, and that this includes cases where a medication is not prescribed. Those two statements point in opposite directions. The difference matters most to exactly the people who turn out not to be eligible. Ask them directly what happens to your money if you are declined.

The second is the pharmacy. Mondae's site says a licensed pharmacy dispenses your medication, but it does not name that pharmacy for any of its products. Knowing who compounds your medication lets you check that pharmacy's licensure with its state board yourself, which is a real consumer protection. telos rx discloses ours. It is a fair question to put to any provider before you order.

Two smaller notes. Their refund posture is strict, with no returns once medication is dispensed, a 48-hour window to report damage, and binding arbitration with a class-action waiver in the terms. And one address Mondae promotes, mondae.com/glp-1, returned a 404 when we checked on 30 September 2026. Their GLP-1 pricing lives on their homepage and treatment pages instead.

If the monthly number is what decides it, Mondae is cheaper on both injectable molecules. If you want to avoid needles, start on a microdose, or know who is compounding your medication, those are the reasons to look elsewhere.

Where telos rx is genuinely different

Not on injectable price. Mondae sells injectable semaglutide and injectable tirzepatide, and both are cheaper than our semaglutide and tirzepatide. If those two products are all you need and cost is the deciding factor, they are a reasonable choice. We would rather say so than pretend otherwise.

The gap is format. There is no needle-free GLP-1 in their range and no microdosed protocol. If injections are the thing standing between you and starting, our oral GLP-1 is from $9 a day. It dispenses oral semaglutide or oral tirzepatide, whichever your clinician decides suits you. If you want to begin below a standard dose, microdosed tirzepatide is as low as $116 per month. Neither is available from Mondae at any price.

Curious about the needle-free route? Start an oral GLP-1 visit, or begin the standard weight-loss intake and let a provider weigh the options with you.

The ranges also differ beyond weight. Both of us offer sermorelin and NAD+, and here Mondae is cheaper too. Their sermorelin is $99 a month against our sermorelin as low as $125 per month. Their NAD+ injection is $99 a month, while our NAD+ nasal spray is as low as $116 per month and needs no needle. Mondae also sells glutathione. We cover PT-141, so one intake can cover more than weight.

How the process compares

telos rx is an online-first, asynchronous service. You complete a roughly 5-minute intake online, and a US-licensed provider reviews it without a scheduled appointment. If approved, medication ships free with 2-day delivery. Your plan includes unlimited care-team messaging, quarterly labs and dose adjustments. You can cancel anytime with no fee, and you pay nothing if a provider declines you.

Mondae starts with an online questionnaire too. Their site says a medical consultation with a licensed care provider is required, and that approved medication typically ships within 5 to 7 days by two-day air. Both are provider-gated, and neither prescribes automatically.

Both companies sell compounded preparations, and neither is FDA-approved. For background, see the NIH NIDDK overview of prescription weight-management medication and the FDA overview of drug compounding. Start your intake when you are ready.

Frequently asked questions

Is Mondae's $87 a month real?

Yes. It is the standing monthly price for compounded semaglutide, not an introductory rate, and a three-month plan brings it to about $75 a month. It applies to semaglutide specifically. Their compounded tirzepatide is around $124 to $126 a month.

Is Mondae cheaper than telos rx?

On injectable GLP-1s, yes, on both. $87 against our $99 on semaglutide and $126 against our $139 on tirzepatide. Mondae is also cheaper on sermorelin and NAD+. They do not offer an oral or microdosed GLP-1, so on those there is nothing to compare.

Does Mondae really charge the same at every dose?

Their pricing is structured that way, with no dose selector at all, and their copy says your rate holds while your membership stays active. Their terms do say prices are subject to change at their discretion, which is standard. As a structure it is a genuine advantage over services that raise the price as you titrate up.

Which pharmacy does Mondae use?

Their site says a licensed pharmacy dispenses medication but does not publicly name it for any product. Worth asking them before ordering, since naming the pharmacy lets you verify its licensure with the state board yourself.

What happens to my money if I am not approved?

At telos rx you pay nothing if a provider declines you. Mondae's FAQ says you will not be charged until a physician approves you, but their refund policy says consultation fees are non-refundable even when nothing is prescribed. Ask them which applies before you start.

Are either company's medications FDA-approved?

No. Both sell compounded preparations, which are not FDA-approved and are not evaluated by the FDA for safety, efficacy or quality. Both companies state this clearly, and it applies equally whichever you choose.
