First-month cost: what is due today to start

See the real amount charged to begin a GLP-1 program — consult, first medication, membership, and shipping.

The first-month calculator shows the amount actually due today to start a GLP-1 program — the one-time consult, the first month of medication (or its introductory price), the first membership charge, and initial shipping — which is often very different from the advertised monthly price. It runs entirely in your browser.

Due today to start$0

Due today = first-month medication + first membership + one-time consult + initial shipping.

Why the starting charge differs from the advertised price

An advertised monthly price rarely includes the intake fee or the first membership charge, and an introductory first month can make the starting charge lower than the renewal — or a bundled consult can make it higher. Knowing the exact amount due today prevents surprises at checkout and helps you compare the real cost of simply trying a program.

Frequently asked questions

Is the amount due today the same as my monthly cost?

No. It is only the starting charge. Your ongoing cost is the renewal monthly, and the fair comparison figure is the effective monthly cost from the true-cost calculator.

Does an introductory first month make a program cheaper overall?

Not necessarily — it lowers the starting charge but the renewal price and commitment determine the effective monthly cost.

Then normalize the full cost with the true-cost calculator.
