The short answer

Ēlovi's prices, current as of September 28, 2026, are $199 a month for compounded semaglutide and $249 a month for compounded tirzepatide, billed monthly only. Gimme Care's prices, checked the same day, are lower in every version of this comparison: $160 a month for semaglutide and $199 a month for tirzepatide on its month-to-month plan, or $130 and $163 a month if you prepay for three months. Over three months, Ēlovi totals $597 for semaglutide and $747 for tirzepatide; Gimme totals $390–$480 for semaglutide and $489–$597 for tirzepatide, depending on which plan you pick. Both companies' products are compounded, not FDA-approved, and Gimme ties part of its refund policy to a first-time member's four-month progress claim that Ēlovi does not offer.

How do Ēlovi's and Gimme's GLP-1 prices actually compare?

Ēlovi publishes this comparison. Our prices were current on September 28, 2026. Gimme Care's prices and terms below were checked the same day on Gimme's own site. Gimme is the lower-cost option in every version of this comparison; we say so plainly rather than picking the framing that flatters us. Either company's terms can change, so confirm them before you enroll.

Ēlovi bills one flat monthly rate with no separate plan tiers. Gimme prices the same medication two ways: a month-to-month plan, or a prepaid three-month plan at a lower effective monthly rate. Gimme states that its price "includes everything you need: consultation, care, medication, supplies, shipping and support," at the same rate regardless of dose. 2

Compounded semaglutide Ēlovi Gimme, month-to-month Gimme, prepaid 3 months
Monthly rate $199 $160 $130
Three-month total $597 $480 $390
Compounded tirzepatide Ēlovi Gimme, month-to-month Gimme, prepaid 3 months
Monthly rate $249 $199 $163
Three-month total $747 $597 $489

Read plainly: Gimme's month-to-month rate beats Ēlovi's for both medications ($160 versus $199 for semaglutide, $199 versus $249 for tirzepatide), and its prepaid three-month plan widens that gap further. Ēlovi does not offer a prepaid multi-month plan at a discounted rate; every Ēlovi month is billed, and priced, the same way.

What does each price actually include?

Ēlovi's plan lists your prescribed medicine, injection supplies, medical review, check-ins, unlimited messages to your care team, and home delivery, with outside laboratory testing and care from another provider excluded.

Gimme's treatment pages list the same broad categories under one price: a medical consultation, the medication itself, injection supplies, shipping, and what it calls "unlimited access to follow-ups, adjustments, and questions" with your provider. 2 3 Gimme also states plainly that "no insurance required" and "no membership or hidden fees" apply on top of the listed price. 1

Neither company's pages we opened mention FSA or HSA eligibility for Gimme; Ēlovi's own site tells customers to ask their plan administrator whether it covers this care. If FSA or HSA reimbursement matters to your decision, ask each company directly rather than assuming either one qualifies.

What happens if you cancel, or if treatment doesn't work?

This is where the two companies' policies diverge more than their price tables show.

Ēlovi's published terms say you pay at checkout and get a full refund if a clinician does not approve treatment, and your plan simply does not renew. Once medicine is dispensed or shipped, it is not returnable or refundable, and plans renew automatically each month unless you cancel.

Gimme's refund policy does not address what happens if a clinician declines to prescribe. 4 What it does say: you can cancel "anytime before it's dispensed or shipped by the pharmacy" for a full refund processed in five to ten business days; once an order is dispensed or shipped, it becomes non-refundable "due to pharmacy regulations and patient safety requirements," with narrow exceptions for a damaged, defective, or wrongly shipped order. 4 Outside those exceptions, Gimme reviews general refund requests only in "limited situations" and does not guarantee one. 4

Gimme separately offers something Ēlovi does not: a "Gimme Progress Promise" for first-time members who stay enrolled for four consecutive months, follow their clinician's instructions, and submit a baseline weight video plus a second one near the four-month mark. 5 If you show no "measurable improvement toward your weight-management goals" — a judgment that weighs your weight change alongside medication adherence, clinician notes, and program participation, not a fixed percentage lost — you can file a claim within 14 days of the four-month mark for a refund of what you paid over those four months. 5 Gimme's own terms are explicit that this is "a customer satisfaction policy. It is not insurance, a medical warranty, or a guarantee of specific health or weight-loss outcomes." 5 A clinician still decides what treatment and dose are appropriate for you; no policy from either company changes that.

Are these FDA-approved medications?

No. Ēlovi's compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded preparations, not the FDA-approved brand-name products, and Gimme's site carries the same disclaimer for its own compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide: they are "not approved nor evaluated for safety, efficacy, or quality by the FDA." 2 3 A compounded product does not carry the FDA's approval for safety, effectiveness, or quality, and evidence gathered on an approved brand does not transfer to a compounded version of it. Our guide to compounded versus brand-name GLP-1 medications explains what that distinction means in practice, whichever company you are comparing.

Both companies operate on a self-pay basis and state that no insurance is required. 1

What else is worth comparing besides price?

Price is one input, not the whole decision. Before switching providers or starting with either one, confirm who is actually prescribing, which pharmacy dispenses your medication, and what support looks like between visits — including how each company's refund or satisfaction policy actually reads, not just how a lower headline price feels. Our checklist for choosing an online GLP-1 provider walks through the clinician, pharmacy, and support questions worth asking any company, and our full guide to what GLP-1 treatment really costs covers the categories worth budgeting for beyond a headline monthly price. If you want to see how a third provider stacks up against Ēlovi using the same method, our Ēlovi vs. Eden comparison covers that pairing in the same detail.

Common questions

Is Gimme cheaper than Ēlovi?

Yes, using the dated prices above. Gimme's month-to-month rate is lower than Ēlovi's for both semaglutide and tirzepatide, and its prepaid three-month plan is lower still. Confirm current prices on Gimme's site before choosing, since either company's terms can change.

Does Gimme guarantee weight loss?

No. Gimme's own terms describe its "Progress Promise" as a customer satisfaction policy, not a medical guarantee, and say so explicitly. It can refund your first four months of payments if you meet its enrollment and verification requirements and show no measurable progress — it does not promise a specific amount of weight loss, and it does not cover a clinician declining to prescribe in the first place.

Should I choose a provider based on price alone?

No. Confirm which product you are being offered, whether it is FDA-approved or compounded, what is included in the price, and how refunds actually work in each company's own policy — not just its marketing. A lower price is not a reason to skip a clinician's assessment of what is medically appropriate for you.
