Our verdict

Avono Health's compounded semaglutide injections cost $219 a month and tirzepatide $299, month to month and the same at every standard dose, with the clinician, messaging and shipping included. Its home page also sells a $699 three-month semaglutide bundle priced against a $269 month, while the pricing page says Avono sells no bundles at all.

  • No membership fee on top

  • Prescribers licensed in your state

Against it

What it is

Avono Health offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide month by month as weekly injections, oral capsules or orally dissolving tablets, with NAD+, sermorelin, hair and sexual-health treatments alongside. You choose a treatment inside a short online intake and enter a card, which is authorized but not charged; a clinician reviews your answers, occasionally adding a brief video visit, and you pay only if treatment is prescribed.

Avono LLC owns the brand and says it neither practices medicine nor dispenses anything. The intake, clinical review and pharmacy coordination run through CareValidate, which is also the name that shows on your card statement, and prescribing is done by Lion MD, a clinician group led by Dr. Ana Lisa Carr and Dr. Kelly Tenbrink. The FAQ names four partner pharmacies: Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts and Casa Pharma Rx.

It says it serves all 50 states, subject to provider licensure, and that prescribing, compounding, shipping and support all happen inside the United States.

What it actually costs

Avono Health's own pages print two different prices for 2 of its drugs. The month-to-month figure above is the one a new customer pays; both figures, and where each appears, are on the cost page.

Standard-dose semaglutide injections cost $219 a month and tirzepatide $299. That covers the medication, the clinician's review, follow-up messages and shipping. There's no membership and no clinician fee, and the price holds as your dose climbs within the program.

Oral versions cost more. Compounded semaglutide capsules are $289 a month and tirzepatide capsules $349.

The Microdose Program runs on its own price list, for dosing up to 2.5 mg: $159 for semaglutide injections, $219 for tirzepatide injections or semaglutide tablets, and $239 for tirzepatide tablets. It isn't a required first step, and once your clinician moves you to standard dosing, the standard price applies.

Avono's home page contradicts its pricing page. The care-programs section there advertises month-to-month, 3-, 6- and 12-month options and sells a three-month semaglutide injection bundle for $699, billed as saving $108 against $269 a month; the oral capsule bundle is $777 against $299. The weight-management page says “We do not offer three, six, nine or twelve month bundles” and sells the injection at $219 a month, so three separate months come to $657, less than the bundle. For capsules the bundle does come out ahead: three months at $289 is $867.

Nothing is charged before a clinician approves treatment. From that point the terms treat fees as spent the moment a provider reviews your intake or a pharmacy starts processing, and canceling stops later renewals without recalling an order already moving. No renewal cutoff is published in advance; the terms say it's “disclosed to you” along the way.

Who it's wrong for

Eyeing the $699 three-month bundle on the home page? At $219 a month, three separate months of injections cost $657.

Expecting $159 semaglutide? That's the Microdose Program, capped at 2.5 mg; standard-dose semaglutide is $219.

Skip it if you like calling someone. Avono publishes no phone number, just portal messaging and a compliance inbox.

The four partner pharmacies come with names and phone numbers but no locations, so where your vial is compounded stays unknown until it arrives.

If you might back out, do it before review: fees turn non-refundable the moment a provider opens your intake.

Questions people ask about Avono Health

On the record8 sourcing notes: every price with the page it came from, and what the company doesn't publish
  1. Sources: Avono Health's public site: Avono Health's home page, Avono Health's about page, Avono Health's weight management page, Avono Health's weight loss page, Avono Health's terms of service page, Avono Health's medical oversight page and Avono Health's medical consent page. The intake at Avono Health's home page and the patient portal at Avono Health's home page were not opened.
  2. The prices, from Avono Health's weight management page. Hero: “STANDARD DOSE PROGRAM Semaglutide $219 per month Tirzepatide $299 per month”. Plan cards: “Tirzepatide Once-weekly injection $299 per month, month to month” and “Semaglutide Once-weekly injection $219 per month, month to month”. Full table: “STANDARD DOSE PROGRAM Semaglutide injection $219 Tirzepatide injection $299 Semaglutide oral $289 Tirzepatide oral $349 MICRODOSE PROGRAM · DOSING UP TO 2.5 MG Semaglutide injection $159 Tirzepatide injection $219 Semaglutide ODT $219 Tirzepatide ODT $239”. The home-page and weight-loss category grids (each price paired to its card by DOM): “Starting at $159.00 per month Microdose Semaglutide Injection”, “Starting at $219.00 per month Microdose Semaglutide Oral Dissolving Tablets”, “Starting at $219.00 per month Microdose Tirzepatide Injection”, “Starting at $239.00 per month Microdose Tirzepatide Oral Dissolving Tablets”, “Starting at $219.00 per month Semaglutide Injection”, “Starting at $289.00 per month Semaglutide Oral Capsules”, “Starting at $299.00 per month Tirzepatide Injection” and “Starting at $349.00 per month Tirzepatide Oral Capsules”.
  3. The bundles, from Avono Health's home page: “Avono offers flexible care programs designed around your health goals, with month-to-month, 3 month, 6 month, and 12 month options available.” Cards: “Weight Management Program - Injectable (3 Month Bundle) $699.00” with “GLP-1 - Semaglutide Injections - 3 Month Supply ◦ Save $108 (compared to $269/mo with month-to-month pricing)”, and “Weight Management Program - Oral Capsules (3 Month Bundle) $777.00” with “Save $120 (compared to $299/mo with month-to-month pricing)”. Against that, the weight-management FAQ: “No. Every plan is month to month. We do not offer three, six, nine or twelve month bundles, and you never have to prepay to get our price.” The per-month figures of $233 and $259 and the three-month totals of $657 and $867 are our arithmetic.
  4. What the price includes, from the weight-management page: “No membership fees No clinician fees No teaser pricing Month to month No long-term commitment Your price does not increase as your dose increases”. “Every plan includes your medication, your clinician, follow-up messaging and shipping, billed month to month.” “If your clinician moves you from Microdose to Standard Dose, the Standard Dose price applies from that point.”
  5. Billing and refunds. The weight-management page: “Your card is authorized during intake but is not charged unless a licensed clinician approves and prescribes your treatment. If treatment isn't approved, you aren't charged. Your card statement will show CARE VALIDATE for the authorization and any subsequent charge.” The Terms and Conditions (“Last updated: 2026-06-11”): “You must cancel before the renewal or processing cutoff disclosed to you to avoid future charges.” and “Except where required by law or expressly stated in writing by Avono, fees are non-refundable once services have been rendered, a Provider has reviewed your intake, a prescription has been issued, a pharmacy has started processing”. The terms apply Nevada law and binding individual arbitration, with a 30-day opt-out.
  6. Who does what. Terms: “a legally binding agreement between you and Avono LLC, operating the Avono Health brand”, and “Avono does not practice medicine, prescribe medications, dispense medications, compound medications, provide pharmacy services”. Medical Oversight (“Last updated: June 28, 2026”): “Avono works with CareValidate to support the telehealth experience, including medical intake, provider review, patient communications, and pharmacy coordination.” and “Medical services may be provided by Lion MD, a nationwide medical team led by Dr. Ana Lisa Carr, MD (NPI: 1689841744) and Dr. Kelly Tenbrink, MD (NPI: 1346482684).” The weight-management page: “Your history is reviewed and your prescription written by a clinician licensed in your state.” The footer reads “© 2026 Avono LLC.”; no street address appears on the site.
  7. Pharmacy and origin. The FAQ: “1) Belmar Pharmacy | Phone: 800-525-9473 2) Strive Pharmacy | Phone: 855-405-5993 3) Epiq Scripts | Phone: 833-654-3553 4) Casa Pharma Rx | Phone: 877-937-6868”. The weight-management page: “Medication is prepared by state-licensed US compounding pharmacies under state board and federal oversight.” and “Your medication ships from within the United States, free and discreetly packaged.” The About page says Avono helps patients “avoid the uncertainty of gray market products, overseas sourcing”. The FAQ: “We provide care and support to patients in all 50 U.S. states.”
  8. FDA's warning-letter search on “Avono Health”, “avonohealth”, “Avono LLC”, “CareValidate”, “CARE VALIDATE”, “Lion MD”, “Belmar Pharmacy”, “Strive Pharmacy”, “Epiq Scripts”, “Casa Pharma Rx” returns no letter addressed to Avono Health, its operator or Avono Health. One pharmacy it names does appear in FDA's index: warning letter 653740, dated March 31, 2023, is addressed to “Belmar Pharma Solutions, Drug Depot, LLC., dba APS Pharmacy” (Lakewood, CO) and concerns an inspection of the APS Pharmacy facility in Palm Harbor, Florida, category “Compounding Pharmacy/Adulterated Drug Products”. FDA posted a close-out letter for it on October 30, 2023. A warning letter discloses; it does not disqualify.
