Sunlight

What you're buying

Sunlight sells two things on the weight-loss side and nothing else: compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide, both weekly injections, both at one flat rate that includes the prescription, unlimited telehealth visits and free shipping. There is no brand-name lane, no oral GLP-1 and no tiered plan ladder. Each shipment is a fresh four-week supply.

Separately, and on its own intake, Sunlight runs a peptide line: NAD+ and compounded sermorelin, both marked in stock and both starting at $159 a month, with no monthly membership and cancel-anytime terms. You do not need one program to get the other. The clinical group is Lion MD, led by Dr. Ana Lisa Carr and Dr. Kelly Tenbrink, both published with NPI numbers you can verify in the federal registry, and the footnote adds that prescribing providers include JMP Medical and OpenLoop Health. Sunlight is LegitScript-certified and names six dispensing pharmacies with phone numbers: Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts, Casa Pharma Rx, The Pharmacy Hub and Foothills.

One thing to know before you compare this with anything else here. The prescribing group is Lion MD — the site's own words are "a trusted team of nationwide medical professionals led by Dr. Ana Lisa Carr, MD (NPI: 1689841744) and Dr. Kelly Tenbrink, MD (NPI: 1346482684)" — and that is the same group, with the same two physicians and the same two NPI numbers, that RxSpan MD and Pallas Health name as well. The pharmacy lists overlap too: four of Sunlight's six, Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts and Casa Pharma Rx, are the four RxSpan names. Shared clinical infrastructure is common in this market and there is nothing improper about it, but it does change what a comparison means. Choosing between these three is not choosing between three independent clinical opinions — much of what happens after you pay is the same operation behind a different storefront.

What it costs (and how it's billed)

Two numbers, repeated identically in the hero, the treatment cards and the FAQ. In August 2026: compounded semaglutide starts at $88/mo and compounded tirzepatide at $157/mo. The FAQ states what is inside them — "Each flat monthly rate includes your prescription, unlimited telehealth visits, and free shipping with no hidden fees" — and the site adds a promise most sellers will not make: "Same price forever. No price increases ever. No hidden fees."

Those are the lowest entry prices we log, and unlike almost everyone else in that range they are not a prepay. There is no long-term contract, no membership fee on top and no annual rung you have to buy to reach the headline. Payment is by card or HSA and FSA, and insurance is neither required nor accepted.

Both figures are still "starts at" language, and Sunlight does not publish a dose-by-dose table, so a reader cannot confirm from the site that the price holds as they titrate up. The refund rule is the standard one and it is stated plainly: cancel any time, a full refund and a free video visit if you are medically disqualified, and no refunds at all once a prescription — first order or refill — has been written and sent to the pharmacy.

Who can order

The FAQ says all fifty states, with the usual qualifier that availability of specific services may vary by state based on provider licensure and applicable regulations. No exception list is published for the GLP-1 line.

The peptide pages are more specific, and worth reading as a hint about how Sunlight handles state rules: both the NAD+ and the sermorelin pages say the product is available in every US state except Mississippi, with a waitlist for states that open later. If Sunlight can name an exception on a peptide, it can name one on a GLP-1.

How the intake works

You complete a health intake quiz, and a licensed clinician reviews it to decide whether you need an appointment at all. If you are approved, the prescription is processed and you get tracking by email and text. The site is honest about the timeline: "Once approved, prescriptions are shipped within 7 business days" — slower than the one-to-two-day shipping some competitors advertise, and better to know up front.

Refills work on a rhythm rather than a date: complete the refill form after your third weekly dose to keep the supply uninterrupted. Continuous access to the care team for questions, dose adjustments and check-ins is included at no extra cost, and if you were prescribed a GLP-1 elsewhere in the last two weeks you can upload the prescription and ask to start at an equivalent dose. Support is help@sunlight.com and 1-877-378-7008, with a mailing address in Kirkland, Washington.

What we'd want changed

Publish the dose table. "Starts at $88" alongside "same price forever, no price increases ever" is a promise about time, not about strength, and the two sentences sit next to each other in a way that invites a reader to assume more than Sunlight has actually said. One table settles it.

Then fix the copy on the NAD+ page. Its medical-oversight paragraph reads "Every NAD+ treatment provided through Direct Meds is reviewed and approved by a licensed healthcare professional" — the name of a completely different telehealth brand, left in a template on Sunlight's own site. It is a small thing and it is exactly the kind of small thing that makes a reader wonder how much of the rest was written for someone else. We would also like a state exception list for the GLP-1 program, given that the peptide pages already carry one.

Bottom line

Sunlight is the cheapest published entry point we cover and, unusually for that end of the market, the price is a real monthly rate rather than an annual prepay divided by twelve. Two named physicians with checkable NPIs, six named pharmacies and a no-price-increase promise are a strong package at $88/mo and $157/mo. Budget a week for the first shipment rather than a day, and ask what your maintenance dose costs before you assume the entry price is the whole story.
