Ro review
An independent look at Ro: what it charges, which medications it prescribes, how it verifies, and who it suits.
No FDA warning letter on file for Ro in the warning letter register this site maintains from the FDA’s published list.
What you are buying
The largest telehealth platform with GLP-1 programs. Ro prescribes Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic as oral tablet, injection. It prescribes brand-name products only — the FDA-approved versions, made by the manufacturer. It ships to all 50 states.
Ro bills insurance, so what you pay depends on your plan as well as on the price below. The medication is billed separately from the programme fee. It does not publish which pharmacy fills its prescriptions.
What the medication actually costs
Context before the programme price: what a pharmacy pays to acquire the branded equivalent. Ro sets its own price on top of a compounded or branded supply.
Source: CMS NADAC. This is what pharmacies pay, not a retail price and not what you would be charged.
Plans and what they cost
Every price is the lowest we can verify for that medication, normalised to one month so a prepay plan compares honestly against a monthly one.

The catch: Medication cost is separate from the $99/month program fee.
What three months really costs
A discounted first month makes a programme look cheaper than it is. This is that month plus two at the standing rate.
Medication only, at the lowest verified rate. Any membership or consultation fee is listed separately above and is not in this total.
