Yes, as of October 2026 Mochi Health is a legitimate telehealth company. A licensed clinician prescribes after a live video visit,5 the company publishes its starting prices, it holds 4.5 on Trustpilot from 19,104 reviews, and FDA's warning-letter database lists no letter to it. What it is not is the cheapest way to get a GLP-1: you pay a membership and the medication separately, and the two add up.
We do not track or partner with Mochi Health, so we cannot link to it and it is not on our board. Everything about Mochi below comes from its own site, Trustpilot and the FDA, each quoted and dated. The programs we list further down are partners that pay us a commission if you join through us (how that works). They are ranked by price alone.

What Mochi sells and what it costs
Mochi charges a membership for the care team and bills the medication on top. Its own words: "Medications and diagnostic services not included in membership subscription."2 The membership, from its FAQ:1
| Membership plan | Price | Per month |
|---|---|---|
| 1 month | $79 | $79 |
| 3 months | $207 | $69 |
| 6 months | $354 | $59 |
| 12 months | $588 | $49 |
New members currently get the first month free on the monthly plan, then pay $79 a month; the promotion is "not available in all states".3 Its weight-loss page advertises the first month at $39 instead,5 so check which offer your state gets at checkout.
The medication, at the lowest price Mochi shows for each (the starting dose; the price rises with the dose your provider prescribes):12
| Medication | Type | Mochi's starting price |
|---|---|---|
| Compounded semaglutide injection | Compounded, not FDA-approved | $60/mo |
| Compounded semaglutide pill | Compounded, not FDA-approved | $62/mo |
| Compounded tirzepatide injection | Compounded, not FDA-approved | $90/mo |
| Compounded orforglipron pill | Compounded, not FDA-approved | $31/mo |
| Wegovy pill | Branded, FDA-approved | $149/mo |
| Foundayo (orforglipron) | Branded, FDA-approved | $149/mo |
| Wegovy pen | Branded, FDA-approved | $199/mo |
| Zepbound | Branded, FDA-approved | $299/mo |
Shipping is included in the medication price.4 Mochi also notes that "Medication availability and pricing vary by state", and its prescriptions are filled through a marketplace where you "Compare pharmacies and find the best price",5 so the drug price you see after the visit can differ from the starting figure above.
The honest monthly number is membership plus drug. At the starting dose on the monthly plan, the semaglutide injection comes to $139 a month ($60 + $79) and the tirzepatide injection to $169 ($90 + $79). A 12-month prepaid membership brings those to $109 and $139, in exchange for paying $588 up front.
What reviewers say
Mochi holds 4.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot across 19,104 reviews, with 5,928 of them written in the last 12 months.6 That volume is hard to manufacture, and it is Trustpilot's number, not ours.
Two things to weigh it against. Trustpilot labels the profile a "Paid Trustpilot subscription" and says the company "invites their customers to review, whether positive or negative", which tends to lift scores compared with profiles where only unhappy customers seek the site out. And Trustpilot says Mochi "Replied to 98% of negative reviews",6 which is a good sign about how complaints get handled.
Its regulatory record
We searched FDA's warning-letter database for "Mochi Health" on 5 October 2026 and it listed no letter,7 and the GLP-1 warning-letter file we keep from FDA's database has no Mochi entry either. A warning letter is an allegation by the agency, not a finding by a court, so even a letter would not settle the question; there is simply none to report.
The wider context matters for anyone buying compounded drugs from any telehealth company. On 3 March 2026 the FDA announced "30 warning letters to telehealth companies for making false or misleading claims regarding compounded GLP-1 products".8 The FDA's own description of compounded drugs: "Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. This means the agency does not review their safety, effectiveness or quality before they are marketed."8 Mochi's site says the same about its compounded options.2
Mochi lists one more pill, orforglipron, from $31 a month. It is a compounded version. Orforglipron is also sold as Foundayo, an FDA-approved brand, which Mochi lists too. The compounded version is a different product that has not been through FDA review, whatever the molecule is called.
Who Mochi suits, and who it does not
- Suits: someone who wants a care team with the prescription, including a registered dietitian,2 and a wide menu (compounded and branded, injections and pills) in one place. Mochi also offers help with insurance, "including support with prior authorizations and letters of medical necessity".4
- Suits: someone ready to prepay a year, which halves the membership per month.
- Does not suit: someone who wants the lowest monthly cash price for compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide. The membership is billed on top of the drug every month, and several programs charge no membership at all.
- Check first: which pharmacy fills your prescription, by name and state, and that its license shows on that state's board of pharmacy register. Our ten-minute legitimacy checklist walks through it.
How Mochi's price compares with programs we track
The fair comparison is the all-in monthly number at the starting dose: Mochi's starting drug price plus its monthly membership, against the cheapest all-in price (drug plus any verified fee) among the programs we track.
| Medication | Mochi, starting drug price | Cheapest on our board, all-in |
|---|---|---|
| Compounded semaglutide | $60 + $79 membership | $69 |
| Compounded tirzepatide | $90 + $79 membership | $119 |
| Wegovy (pill or pen) | $149 pill or $199 pen, plus membership | $208 |
| Zepbound | $299, plus membership | $358 |
On the monthly plan those Mochi figures come to $139, $169, $228 or $278, and $378 a month. Our side of the table is live: it reads the current board, re-checked weekly. Mochi's side is its own published starting price plus its $79 membership, read on 5 October 2026. The full rankings are on the cheapest semaglutide and the cheapest tirzepatide pages, and our best-programs page sorts every program we track.
