Mochi Health just lowered the cost of its compounded GLP-1 medications while adding a new lab-testing service designed to help patients track key health markers during treatment.
The telehealth platform recently announced a new dose-based pricing structure for compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide, along with the launch of Mochi Labs, an integrated blood-testing service.
For people exploring GLP-1 weight-loss treatment, the updates address two common concerns: affordability and ongoing medical monitoring.
Mochi Health Cuts GLP-1 Prices and Adds Lab Testing
Mochi Health now offers lower starting prices on compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide plus integrated lab testing, giving patients more affordable access to provider-guided weight management and monitoring.

Mochi Health's new pricing model, compounded semaglutide now starts at $60 per month, while compounded tirzepatide starts at $90 per month.
The company says pricing is now tied to dosage levels, which could benefit many new patients who begin treatment on lower introductory doses before gradually increasing over time.
According to Mochi Health, no dose costs more than previous pricing, and many options are now available at lower monthly rates.
Patients who enroll begin with a live, 30-minute virtual appointment with a licensed healthcare provider before receiving any prescription recommendation. Membership plans start at $39 for the first month and include unlimited provider visits, direct messaging and access to healthcare professionals. Medication costs are separate from membership fees.

Mochi Labs adds integrated blood testing
Alongside the pricing change, Mochi Health launched Mochi Labs, a new service that allows patients to order and manage bloodwork through the same platform used for their care.
Patients can request testing through the Mochi portal, visit a participating laboratory location and receive results within their account, according to the company.
Lab testing starts at $26 for the company's core health panel. That panel includes:
- Cholesterol testing
- Hemoglobin A1C testing
- Thyroid screening
- Comprehensive metabolic testing
Additional testing options include GLP-1 monitoring panels, women's health panels, men's health panels and broader health assessments.
The company says providers can use lab results to help monitor factors such as metabolic health, thyroid function and nutritional markers throughout treatment and make adjustments when appropriate.

Why this matters for GLP-1 patients
As GLP-1 medications continue to gain popularity for weight management, many patients have been looking for options that balance cost with clinical oversight.
Mochi Health's latest updates reflect the growing demand for both. Lower entry-level pricing may make treatment more accessible for patients starting their weight loss journey, while integrated lab testing could provide additional insight into how treatment is affecting their overall health.
The laboratory service is available in most states, though Mochi Health says it is not currently offered in New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island or Hawaii.
For now, compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide remain the company's primary treatment offerings.
