Willow Weight Loss: What It Is and How to Compare It
Willow is a telehealth clinic offering compounded GLP-1 weight loss medication with same-day prescribing in states where it operates. If you’re comparing it against other options, here’s what matters.
How Willow’s model works
Willow follows the standard telehealth GLP-1 model: complete an online health evaluation, get reviewed by a licensed provider, and - if appropriate - receive a prescription for compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide, shipped directly to you.
What to check before signing up
Whichever provider you’re considering, including Willow, it’s worth confirming:
- What pharmacy fills the prescription, and whether it’s a licensed, regulated compounding pharmacy. This is the single biggest safety factor with any compounded medication - see why pharmacy licensing matters.
- Whether the advertised price includes everything - the provider visit, supplies, and shipping - or whether those are billed separately.
- How the price changes as your dose increases. Higher doses cost more with some providers.
How Renlo compares
Renlo’s flat monthly pricing starts at $199/month for semaglutide and $269/month for tirzepatide, with a lower rate on the 3-month plan, and that price doesn’t change as your dose is titrated up. It includes your provider consultation, medication, injection supplies, shipping, and ongoing care team support - no membership fee, no insurance required.
