Found GLP-1 review (2026): a multi-medication weight program, and who it's worth it for

What is Found, and how is it different from GLP-1-only programs?

Found is an online weight-loss clinic built around choice. Many telehealth programs, such as Fridays or Henry Meds, center on GLP-1s like semaglutide and tirzepatide. Found's clinicians can prescribe from a much wider menu.

The pitch is matching. Instead of defaulting to one drug, the clinician looks for the medicine, or mix of medicines, that fits your health history.

Found also works with insurance for your visits, including Aetna, Anthem and Cigna. With insurance, you meet your clinician by video before each refill and pay your visit copay each time. If you pay cash, care happens mostly by text, with no copay.

How much does Found cost all-in?

For compounded GLP-1s, Found charges one price that covers your care, the medicine and the membership. A compounded drug is a pharmacy-made version of a brand-name medicine.

Your price depends on two choices. The first is how you pay: cash, or commercial insurance for your visits. The second is how long you commit. A 12-month plan paid up front costs the least per month.

• Compounded semaglutide, cash: about $170/mo on a 12-month plan · About $290/mo month to month · First month about $180
• Compounded semaglutide, with insurance: about $100/mo on a 12-month plan · About $200/mo month to month · First month about $100 · Plus your visit copay
• Compounded tirzepatide, cash: about $240/mo on a 12-month plan · About $360/mo month to month · First month about $220
• Compounded tirzepatide, with insurance: about $180/mo on a 12-month plan · About $290/mo month to month · First month about $150 · Plus your visit copay
• Brand-name GLP-1s: a care plan of about $50–$150/mo · The drug is billed on top

The price stays the same as your dose goes up. Some programs charge more at higher doses, so this helps you plan.

Found bills every 28 days, so a year has 13 payments. That brings compounded semaglutide paid in cash to about $2,200 a year on the 12-month plan.

Insurance pricing works with commercial plans only. It is not available with Medicare, Medicaid or TriCare. Your visit copay is about $30 for most members.

Brand-name drugs cost far more if your insurance does not pay. Found lists Wegovy and Zepbound from about $650 a month, before the care plan. The offer terms also let you fill them through NovoCare or LillyDirect, the makers' own cash pharmacies. See our GLP-1 cost guide for current maker prices.

If you have Medicare Part D, Found can help you use the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge. It offers certain brand-name weight drugs to eligible members for a $50 monthly copay, through December 2027. Your Found plan is paid separately.

Which medications does Found offer?

Found lists more than ten weight medicines. Its formulary, meaning the list of drugs its clinicians can prescribe, falls into four groups. Each group suits a different woman.

• Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide. These are pharmacy-made versions of the drugs in Wegovy and Zepbound. They are not FDA-approved. Found uses state-licensed 503A pharmacies, which make each medicine for one patient's prescription. An outside lab tests it for strength, purity and sterility. They suit women paying cash who want a GLP-1 for less than the brands.
• Brand-name GLP-1s. Found can prescribe Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro, Saxenda, Victoza, Rybelsus and Trulicity. These are FDA-approved, and insurance may cover them. They suit women whose plan pays, or who want the approved product.
• Foundayo, a GLP-1 pill. Foundayo is Eli Lilly's orforglipron. The FDA approved it for weight management on April 1, 2026. Unlike the shots, it is a daily pill you can take at any time, with or without food or water. It is billed separately from your Found plan. It suits women who want a GLP-1 without a needle.
• Older non-GLP-1 medicines. These are metformin, topiramate, zonisamide and Contrave, a mix of naltrexone and bupropion. Contrave is FDA-approved for weight loss. The other three are approved for other conditions and prescribed off-label for weight. Found's generics plan includes generic pills like metformin in its price. They suit women who cannot take a GLP-1, did not respond to one, or want a cheaper start.

See our guide to compounded GLP-1s for how they differ from the brands, and why that matters.

When does Found's broader formulary actually matter?

The wide menu pays off for some women and not for others. It helps most if you:

• Did not do well on one GLP-1 and want a clinician to help you try another.
• Cannot take a GLP-1 for medical reasons and need a different weight medicine.
• Have insulin resistance, meaning your body responds poorly to insulin, and your clinician thinks metformin may help.
• Would rather start with a pill than an injection.

If you just want compounded semaglutide and basic check-ins, the breadth does not help you. Compare month-to-month prices before you commit to a long plan.

What do Found reviews say about the patient experience?

Found scores 4.2 out of 5 on Trustpilot, from about 755 reviews, as of October 10, 2026. That puts it in the middle of the pack. Mochi Health scores 4.5 and Henry Meds 4.4. Fridays sits at 4.1.

The reviews are split. About 70% give five stars and praise the doctors, the coaches and the app. About one in five give one star. Most of those complain about billing surprises, denied refunds and slow support.

Can you cancel Found and get a refund?

You get your membership fee back in full if you cancel within 3 days of buying. The same applies if you cancel before your first medical visit. After that, the fee is not refundable.

Medicine is not refundable once it ships. Renewals are not refundable either, so cancel at least 48 hours before your renewal date.

This matters most on a 12-month plan, because you pay for the year up front. Read the offer terms before you choose a long plan.

Is Found a good fit for perimenopause weight gain?

Found does not specialize in menopause, and it does not prescribe hormone therapy. Its strength is weight medicine, with a menu wide enough for complicated cases.

If you want hormones and weight care in one place, a menopause clinic that does both is a better fit. For a wider comparison of online programs, see our best online GLP-1 programs.
