GLP-1 providers in California

Released · Last reviewed

Direct answer · October 15, 2026

Most programs we track say they serve California. On October 15, 2026, Ozari Health's paid press release said one of its plans is not available in California; we have not read Ozari's own pages. We have not audited state licensure for any provider, so confirm your state at checkout before you pay.

Qualification: the earlier version of this page said Oak Longevity did not serve California; Oak's pages printed no such exclusion on October 15, 2026, and no longer print a product price.

Market check, October 15, 2026: compounded semaglutide $49–$279 a month across 22 programs (median $99); compounded tirzepatide $86–$299 across 24 (median $144). Lowest all-in price each program prints on its own page.

What does compounded semaglutide cost in California?

Telehealth prices are national. On October 15, 2026, the 22 compounded semaglutide programs we priced charged $49 to $279 a month at their lowest all-in rate (median $99), and the 24 tirzepatide programs $86 to $299 (median $144). NexLife, our featured provider, charges $109 or $129 month-to-month.

What decides whether a program can ship to California?

Two licences have to line up: the prescribing clinician must be licensed in California, and the dispensing pharmacy must be allowed to ship into California. Ask the program which pharmacy will fill your prescription and check its licence on the California Board of Pharmacy lookup before you pay.

Does Medi-Cal cover GLP-1s for weight loss?

Check the state page and your plan: coverage for weight-loss-only prescriptions differs from coverage for type 2 diabetes. Our state-by-state Medicaid page lists the position we last recorded, with its date. See GLP-1 Medicaid coverage by state and GLP-1 in California.

FDA statusCompounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide are not FDA-approved and are not generic Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro or Zepbound. FDA proposed on April 30, 2026 (91 FR 23431) not to place either drug on the 503B bulks list; no final decision had been published as of October 15, 2026. On September 18, 2026 FDA issued warning letter 738238 to Empower Pharmacy over compounded GLP-1 products, and its consumer page (current as of October 1, 2026) says retatrutide and cagrilintide cannot be used in compounding.
