Review by Leah Garner, clinical-evidence editor · Updated October 2026
The short version
Sermorelin is the whole peptide catalog here, and the plan ladder behind it is printed openly. The weight-loss side is less settled. The compounded semaglutide page carries two starting prices that cannot both be true, and compounded tirzepatide is sold only on plans of two months or more, billed up front. The compounding pharmacy is never named.

Visit Maximus →Maximus sells physician-guided protocols for testosterone, weight, hair and blood flow. The growth-hormone shelf holds a single peptide: sermorelin, a nightly subcutaneous injection sold on one-, two- and six-month plans. Compounded tirzepatide sits under Weight Loss beside brand Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro and Foundayo. A compounded semaglutide page is still live and marked available, though the weight-loss menu no longer lists it. A separate peptides page advertises eighteen stacks for later in 2026, with most compound names printed as blocks of shading and nothing purchasable on it.
What Maximus prescribes, by goal
Weight
- SemaglutideFDA-approved
- Injection (compounded)Price not published
- Injection (brand)From $449.99/mo
- TirzepatideFDA-approved
- Injection (compounded)Price not published
- Injection (brand)From $549.99/mo
Compounded tirzepatide comes as a vial with syringes, for once-weekly self-injection, and the page prints no milligram strength. It is sold on two-, four-, six- and twelve-month plans, from $249.99 down to $149.99 a month. Each plan is billed up front for the whole term, and no month-to-month plan is offered. The compounded semaglutide page promises once-a-week injections, also with no dose printed. It heads with $79.99 a month and says $150 a month further down.
Recovery
- SermorelinLegal to compound
- Injection (compounded)From $299.99/mo
Sermorelin comes pre-filled, so nothing has to be reconstituted. The hub page prints 1 mg five days a week from a 10 mL, 20 mg vial, reduced to 0.75 mg in California. The sermorelin page itself prints no milligram at all.
Sleep
- SermorelinLegal to compound
- Injection (compounded)From $299.99/mo
The injection is taken daily at night, at least two hours after the last meal and as close to bedtime as possible. That cadence disagrees with the hub page's five days a week, and the site never reconciles the two.
Each “From” figure is the seller’s own starting price, in the unit the seller states. Where a required fee or a package length changes what one month costs, the smaller line under it is our arithmetic, not a figure the seller prints. Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved.
Who prescribes
A licensed clinician
The terms say Maximus contracts with affiliated medical practices, which in turn work with a network of United States based providers. Those practice entities are never named. Six doctors appear on the site as advisors, including the chief executive, and none is stated to write a prescription. The homepage FAQ says the doctors are US-based, licensed and board-certified.
The intake is an online questionnaire that the site says takes about five minutes. No appointment is needed to start, and the sermorelin page states that a video evaluation is not required for it. Live video visits exist and carry a $20 no-show fee under the terms. Messaging with the care team is unlimited and included in every plan.
Are labs required?
Sold separately
Sermorelin needs no bloodwork, and the site says so directly. Lab panels are a separate product: $99.99 for an at-home testosterone kit, $199.99 a year for 110 markers, $349.99 a year for 146. Testing is unavailable in Rhode Island, New York and New Jersey.

What it claims, and what it cites
The GLP-1 pages name their trials, which is more than most of this category does. The peptide claims do not. An aesthetic rating is attributed to a medical director the site never identifies, and the body-fat figure rests on an internal dataset with no author, no size and no link. An FDA warning letter covers the GLP-1 pages. It is letter 730095, dated June 8, 2026, addressed to Maximus Health, Inc. It quoted three lines about compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide: "Clinically studied ingredients.", "Clinically studied to help patients…." and "Proven to lose weight effectively". It also cited the claim that the drugs come from "FDA approved pharmacies". The letter says compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and that no pharmacy holds an FDA-approved designation.

Sold by Maximus, not listed here
- Tesamorelin
- Approved only as Egrifta, for excess abdominal fat in adults with HIV-associated lipodystrophy. Its label says it is not indicated for weight loss. Egrifta became a biologic (BLA) on March 23, 2020, and FDA says compounded versions of these products do not qualify for the 503A or 503B compounding exemptions.
- Testosterone protocols, enclomiphene and the oxytocin cream
- Hormone therapy and a prescription cream outside the peptides this site covers.
- Minoxidil, dutasteride, finasteride, tadalafil, vardenafil and sildenafil
- Hair and blood-flow medicines that are not peptides.
- Lab panels and the prescription multivitamin
- Testing and a supplement, not a prescribed peptide.
- The eighteen waitlist stacks
- Advertised for later in 2026 with most compound names obscured; nothing on that page can be bought.
How it bills
The growth-hormone peptide plans are $299.99 for one month, $274.99 a month on two and $199.99 a month on six. A banner offers half off the first month to new customers who take the six-month plan. Committed plans cannot be ended early, and the subscription policy and the program terms now agree on that. They still differ on notice: the policy promises thirty days' email warning of a material price change, while the policy box on the tirzepatide page promises seven. Shipping is free, HSA and FSA cards are accepted, and there is no membership fee. Medication is not refundable once shipped, and consultation and lab fees are never refundable.

The evidence behind what it sells
Right for
Readers who want sermorelin from a clinic that prints its plan ladder, and who are comfortable starting without labs.
Look elsewhere if
Anyone after NAD+, glutathione, GHK-Cu or PT-141, none of which Maximus sells, or anyone who needs a settled price before checkout.

Maximus
Frequently asked questions
- What does sermorelin cost at Maximus?
- A single month is $299.99. Two months bring it to $274.99 a month, and six months to $199.99 a month.
- Does Maximus sell NAD+ or GHK-Cu?
- No. Sermorelin is the only peptide it sells today, and the longer peptide list on its waitlist page is not purchasable.
- Can I cancel a Maximus plan early?
- Not a committed plan. The subscription policy says a multi-month plan runs to the end of its term with no partial refund. The program terms allow an exit only for a health reason a provider documents. A month-to-month plan ends at the close of the current month.
- Has Maximus had an FDA warning letter?
- Yes. Letter 730095 is dated June 8, 2026. It objected to clinically studied and proven weight-loss claims for compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide. It also objected to the phrase FDA approved pharmacies. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved.
