Semaglutide and tirzepatide cost more; they are in the table below. Any other compounded peptide runs from a typical $142 to a typical $295 a month. That is the median monthly price for each compound, across 451 seller listings that publish one. The spread inside each compound is wider.
The table below is the live market for each compound. Each price links to its own price board. The figures are monthly. A figure billed on any other term is left out.

What the headline figure usually covers
Most sellers quote the medication. That is the vial, the spray or the troche for one month. Read the line under the price before anything else.
Some sellers fold the clinician visit into that figure. Others bill it separately. A few charge a membership on top, monthly or yearly. Those are different purchases even when the headline matches.
Sermorelin and NAD+ are mostly sold as injectables. For those, supplies matter. Ask whether syringes and alcohol pads ship with the vial.
The fees that sit outside the price
Five costs recur. Each one can move the monthly total.
- Membership. A recurring fee for access to the prescriber. It may run whether or not a refill ships.
- Consult. A first visit, sometimes charged once and sometimes at each renewal.
- Labs. Some programs require bloodwork before a first fill. Some include it; others send you to a draw site at your own cost.
- Supplies. Syringes, needles and swabs for injectables.
- Shipping. Cold-chain packaging for refrigerated vials is sometimes a separate line.
Add every recurring line and divide by the months it covers. That is the figure to compare. A yearly membership spread over twelve months still counts.
Why most buyers pay cash
Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved[1]. FDA does not verify their safety, effectiveness or quality before they are marketed[1]. That status is the main reason a health plan rarely pays for them.
The details differ by plan and by program. The insurance guide walks through Medicare, Medicaid and private plans. A health savings account is a separate question, covered in the HSA and FSA guide.
Which peptides can be priced at all
A pharmacy can compound only from certain bulk substances. Three kinds qualify: one with a USP monograph, one in an approved drug, or one on FDA’s list[2]. That list is still being built.
Until then, FDA sorts nominated substances into categories. Category 1 substances are under evaluation[3]. FDA’s interim policy says it does not intend to act against compounding from Category 1[4]. Glutathione, NAD and non-injectable GHK-Cu sit in Category 1 as of the May 14, 2026 update[3].
BPC-157 and MOTS-c appear in none of the three categories[3]. Neither falls under the interim policy, so neither is priced on this site. The where-to-get-peptides guide explains that split. The pharmacy side has two tiers of its own, set out in 503A vs 503B.
How to compare two quotes
Hold three things equal. Then compare.
- The same form: injection against injection, not injection against oral.
- The same dose, or the same dose ladder if the dose climbs.
- The same term, with every recurring fee added back.
Then ask one question. What happens to the price if you pause? Some memberships keep billing. The seller reviews record that term where the seller publishes it.
