Willow reviews
Willow (Willow Health Services, Inc., Houston) sells compounded semaglutide at $299 a month and compounded tirzepatide at $399, as a weekly injection or a daily sublingual tablet, with the medication, the clinician and shipping in one flat price and no membership fee. It is dearer than most compounded sellers and says so, arguing the physician access is what you are paying for.

Willow charges one price per medication with no membership layered on top and no dose tiers, which is unusual in this lane — most compounded sellers raise the price as you titrate up. What that buys, per its FAQ, is the medication, the medical evaluation, unlimited access to the prescribing doctor, 24/7 support and shipping. It is also roughly twice what the cheapest compounded providers charge, and at $399 the tirzepatide plan costs more than brand-name Zepbound bought direct from LillyDirect at its starting dose. Willow sells no FDA-approved brand medication at all.
Is Willow legit?
Willow Health Services, Inc. is a Houston, Texas telehealth company selling only compounded GLP-1s, prescribed by independent US-licensed physicians and dispensed by unnamed state-licensed compounding pharmacies. It is unusually direct about what compounding means, carrying a site-wide notice that compounded medications are not FDA-approved, not brand-equivalent, and not made by Willow itself. It has no BBB profile. Eli Lilly sued it in 2025 over its advertising and the case was dismissed on procedural grounds; a separate advertising-standards review ended with Willow dropping the claims in question.

- Public record · 2026-07-24After a challenge brought by Novo Nordisk, the National Advertising Division of BBB National Programs found in December 2025 that Willow had not substantiated health, weight-loss and superiority claims for its compounded semaglutide. Willow initially declined to comply and NAD referred the matter to the FTC, state attorneys general and advertising platforms; the case was reopened and on 24 July 2026 Willow voluntarily discontinued the challenged claims.

- Lawsuit · 2025-04Eli Lilly sued Willow Health Services in the Central District of California (2:25-cv-03570) under the Lanham Act, alleging its compounded tirzepatide marketing was false. The amended complaint was dismissed with prejudice on 3 February 2026 on proximate-cause grounds — the court held prescription drugs are not bought directly by consumers — without ruling on whether the advertising was actually false.

Be First to ReviewWhat people report elsewhere
Trustpilot rates Willow 3.9 out of 5 across 354 reviews — a modest but genuine corpus. The majority are positive and unusually specific about the clinical relationship: doctors and support staff who reply at weekends, fast shipping, and several reviewers who say the attention justifies paying more than the cheaper compounded sellers charge. The complaints fall into three groups: people who found the sublingual tablets less effective than the injection, dosing and account mix-ups where the information on file did not match what had been prescribed, and price — though several of the same reviewers conclude the service is worth it. Willow has no BBB profile at all, so there is no complaints-channel counterweight to read alongside the Trustpilot picture.

Willow FAQ
How much does Willow cost per month?
Compounded semaglutide is $299 a month and compounded tirzepatide is $399, whether you take the weekly injection or the daily sublingual tablets. There is no membership fee and no dose tiers — the price is the same at every dose, and it includes the medication, the medical evaluation, unlimited access to your doctor and shipping.
Is Willow legit?
It is a real Houston telehealth company, Willow Health Services, Inc., prescribing through independent US-licensed physicians, and it states clearly on every page that its compounded medications are not FDA-approved. Eli Lilly sued it in 2025 over its advertising and the case was dismissed on procedural grounds in February 2026, and an advertising-standards review ended with Willow dropping the claims in question in July 2026.
Does Willow sell brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound?
No. Willow's entire line is compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, which are made by a pharmacy and are not FDA-approved. If you want the brand-name drug, its own $399 tirzepatide plan costs more than Zepbound bought direct from LillyDirect at the starting dose.
Are the Willow tablets as good as the injection?
There is no published evidence comparing them, and Willow charges the same price for both. Reviewers who tried the sublingual tablets are noticeably more likely to report disappointing results than those on the weekly injection, which is worth weighing before choosing the tablet form.
How do I cancel Willow?
Message the Patient Care Team at least two business days before your next processing date, or cancel from your account page. If you cancel before the prescription reaches the pharmacy you get a full refund in 5 to 10 business days; after that point the cancellation takes effect from the following cycle and the current month is not refunded.
Which states does Willow serve?
Thirty-three, listed in its own FAQ — including California, Texas, Florida, New York, Illinois and Pennsylvania, but not Alaska, Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont or West Virginia.
