Citizen Meds review
Graded on whether a price is published, checkable, and still true at month two — how we grade · how we verify prices
Citizen Meds fronts compounded semaglutide at $125. That is month one at 0.25 mg; the same page's ladder ends at $395, and tirzepatide runs to $545.
The $125 is a real one-month price at the starting dose. The ladder on the same page runs $125, $245, $295, $345, $395 as the dose rises, so the headline describes the first month of a course rather than its running cost.

The verdict
The cheap number is real and it is month one only. Citizen Meds prints the whole ladder underneath, which is more than most sellers do.

Pros and cons
What we like
- The entire dose ladder is printed on the product page, so the rising cost is knowable before you buy anything.
- No subscription and no membership: each month is bought outright.
- Both drugs are described as compounded with glycine and B12 rather than left vague.
- The home kit contents and the number of injections are stated on the listing.
What could be better
- The advertised price is the first month at the lowest dose and roughly triples across a course.
- The struck-through prices are permanent, which makes the discount a list price rather than an offer.
- No corporate form, no street address and no state list on any of the eight pages we read.
- No compounding pharmacy is named.
What it is
Citizen Meds sells compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as one-time purchases with no subscription, each shipped as a home kit with four weekly injections. Both drugs are compounded with glycine and B12, and a compounded blend is not the branded drug.

What it actually costs
The $125 semaglutide headline is the first month at 0.25 mg. The dosing schedule directly beneath it reads $125, $245, $295, $345 and $395 as the dose steps up, so the advertised price is the cheapest month of a course rather than the price of the course.
Tirzepatide runs the same way from $145 to $545. Above both figures sits a struck-through $299 and $399 that appears on every page on every visit, which makes it a list price rather than a sale. Coby Health builds its ladder the same way and publishes it just as plainly.
Who it's wrong for
Wrong seller if you budget off a headline: by the time most people reach a therapeutic dose the bill has roughly tripled. A starts-at figure keyed to the first month is the version of this trick that is hardest to spot, because the number really is what you pay — once.
- Wanting a subscription: there isn't one, which is a feature if you dislike auto-billing and a chore if you don't.
- Needing a company to check: no corporate form, no address and no state list on any of the eight pages we read.

Common questions
Why is Citizen Meds semaglutide only $125?
Because $125 is month one at the 0.25 mg starting dose. The dosing schedule on the same page continues at $245, $295, $345 and $395 as the dose is increased, so the headline is the cheapest month rather than the ongoing rate.
Does Citizen Meds use a subscription?
No. Both product pages describe each purchase as a one-time, one-month supply with no subscription necessary, so nothing renews on its own.
Are the struck-through Citizen Meds prices a sale?
They read as one, but the $299 and $399 figures appeared on every page we loaded, which makes them a standing list price rather than a limited offer.
Why we gave Citizen Meds a C
Read the full grading rationale
The headline is a first-month price on a rising ladder, and the ladder is printed right under it, which is more honesty than most sellers offer. Read it and the shape becomes clear: semaglutide goes $125, $245, $295, $345, $395 as the dose steps up, and tirzepatide goes $145, $295, $345, $395, $445, $545. So the $125 that fronts the site is what month one costs at the starting dose and nothing else. The struck-through $299 and $399 above those figures appear on every page, on every visit, which makes them a permanent list price rather than a sale. Eight pages were read: the homepage, the products page, the tirzepatide and semaglutide product pages, the tirzepatide category page, a month-four product page, the privacy policy and the terms. No state list, no pharmacy name and no corporate address appear on any of them, so no address-based FDA screen was possible and none is claimed.
