Gimme Care review

What it is

Gimme Care is a cash-pay telehealth service for compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide, with a short price list and a month-to-month plan. The company behind it is Start Gimme LLC [1]. It also sells non-GLP-1 products such as NAD+, sermorelin and an anti-nausea drug.

What it prescribes

Compounded drugs only. Gimme Care’s own footer says its products are compounded medicines made by licensed compounding pharmacies [2]. It also says they are not FDA-approved and have not been through clinical trials for safety, efficacy or equivalence to approved drugs [3]. FDA’s general warning says the same about compounded drugs [14].

That footer is plain about the limits, which helps readers. It also means there is no Wegovy or Zepbound here. See our Wegovy and Zepbound pages for approved options.

What it costs

The price list sits on the home page. There are two plans for each drug.

Plan	Compounded semaglutide	Compounded tirzepatide
Month to month	$160 a month [5]	$199 a month [4]
3 months, billed every 3 months	$130 a month [5]	$163 a month [4]

Gimme Care says the price covers the drug, physician care, support, shipping and supplies, with no membership fee [6].

It does not take commercial insurance and is not enrolled in Medicare or Medicaid [7]. For brand-name cash prices, see GLP-1 costs without insurance.

Where it operates

Gimme Care says it serves all 50 states and DC [8]. In five states (Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and West Virginia) you need a short video or audio visit before starting [9].

Signing up and cancelling

Plans are subscriptions unless checkout says otherwise [10]. Refills ship every 28 days after a short check-in [11]. You can manage or cancel the subscription in the patient portal [12]. An order can be cancelled only before the pharmacy dispenses or ships it [13]. Our guide to cancelling a GLP-1 program explains what to check.

Safety and regulatory record

A search of FDA’s warning letter database for Gimme Care, Start Gimme and its web address returned no warning letter when this page was updated. Gimme Care does not name its pharmacies on the pages reviewed here, so we could not check them. Its products remain compounded drugs that FDA has not approved [14].

Who it suits, and who should look elsewhere

Gimme Care suits a cash buyer who has chosen a compounded drug with a prescriber and wants a low, simple price with a month-to-month option. Look elsewhere if you want an FDA-approved medicine, if you have Medicare, Medicaid or a plan that might cover a brand-name drug (see our coverage guide), or if you want to know which pharmacy makes your medicine before you sign up. Our programs page lists other options.
