Why is compounded GLP-1 so much cheaper than brand names?
Brand-name GLP-1s like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound often run well over a thousand dollars a month without insurance.

Compounded medications are not reviewed by the FDA for safety or effectiveness.
Does insurance cover my Elara plan?
Elara does not bill insurance, which is what keeps pricing simple and transparent. Many members find the cash price of a compounded plan lower than a brand-name copay path with prior authorizations. Some treatments are FSA and HSA eligible; check with your plan administrator.
When do I actually pay?
A temporary hold is placed on your payment method while you complete the medical questionnaire. You are only charged if a licensed provider prescribes your treatment. If you are not a fit, the hold is released and the funds return to you.
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. The online intake and the provider review cost nothing. Elara only receives payment if you are prescribed, so there is no risk in finding out whether treatment is right for you.
