Edessa's one-month plan prices compounded semaglutide injections at $179, tirzepatide at $239 and semaglutide tablets at $229. Its home-page $135 is a six-month semaglutide rate, and how six months get billed goes unstated.

What it is
Edessa is an online weight-loss storefront for compounded semaglutide (weekly injection or daily dissolvable tablet) and compounded tirzepatide. The terms name Edessa Group, LLC, which they call “a Nevada corporation,” at 732 S. 6th Street in Las Vegas, while the advertising disclaimer says ads are paid for by Edessa Health, Inc.
You fill in an online assessment, a provider reviews it within 24 hours, and medication is cold-shipped from a pharmacy the site never names. Edessa describes itself as a “managed services provider” and leaves its medical group unnamed too.
The site says it serves all 50 states plus Washington, D.C., and claims “100,000+ successful GLP-1 patients.” One template slip is worth knowing about: the tablet page's side-effect reporting line refers to acarbose, a diabetes drug it doesn't sell.
What it actually costs
Advertised$135
Actually$179/mo
Edessa advertises $135. A month costs $179 because the advertised rate is the 6-month plan (per month).
The gap
They advertise $135 a month. That is the 6-month plan (per month), $810 on the card today by our math, since the plan's total isn't printed. With no commitment it is $179 a month.
Semaglutide injections cost $179 on the one-month plan, $160 a month on three months and $135 a month on six. Tirzepatide runs $239, $219 and $209; the tablets $229, $209 and $199. Each plan bundles the consult, medication and expedited shipping, and a dose increase leaves the price where it was.
Every figure the home page leads with is a six-month rate: $135 for the injection, $199 for the tablet, $209 for tirzepatide. The plan tables list only per-month numbers, so whether a six-month plan means one charge of $810 or six monthly charges isn't clear.
The money-back promise shrinks in the fine print. The home page says “we'll refund your purchase no questions asked” if you don't see results. The terms say you get your payment back minus 25% for doctor consult fees, and only if you can show no weight loss after following the program for at least five months.
Otherwise sales are final, and consult fees are never refundable.
Who it's wrong for
Planning around $135? That's the six-month price for the injection; month to month it's $179.
Relying on the guarantee? You'd need five months on the program, proof you lost nothing, and you'd forfeit 25% as consult fees.
Who compounds it, and who prescribes it? Edessa names neither.
Which company are you paying, Edessa Group, LLC or Edessa Health, Inc.? The site uses both names.
