Strut vs TrimRx: the Cheaper GLP-1 Floor, and What the FDA Said About It
On the receipt this is a short comparison. Strut's weight-loss floor is $99 a month and TrimRx's is $179 a month, both verified as of 2026-08-21, so the entry gap is $80. On the public record it is a longer one, because the FDA sent Strut Health, LLC a warning letter citing misbranding that is specifically about how its compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide line was marketed, and we hold no letter of any kind for TrimRx. The rest of this page is the detail around those two facts: which product each price buys, who stocks the brand-name pens, how much else each company treats, and where our evidence runs thin.
Read the FDA letter to Strut before you read its price
- Warning letter MARCS-CMS 721448, issued to Strut Health, LLC on February 20, 2026
- Grounds: the Strut name on compounded product labels, plus marketing claims the FDA said imply an approval compounded drugs do not hold
- The letter cites sections 502(a) and 502(bb) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
- Nothing comparable on file for TrimRx

How We Compared Strut vs TrimRx
How we put this page together
Every brand fact on this page was read out of our live brand and category records on the day the page was written. Nothing here comes from memory, from either company's advertising as we last recalled it, or from a plausible-looking gap filler.
Prices. We keep one authoritative monthly floor per brand per category, with the date it was last verified. Strut weight loss: $99 a month, verified as of 2026-08-21. TrimRx weight loss: $179 a month, verified as of 2026-08-21, with compounded tirzepatide from $259 a month. A floor is the cheapest configuration we could verify, so we never publish a figure beneath it and never present one as what you will be charged.
The regulatory record. Strut's entry rests on the FDA's warning letter citing misbranding, MARCS-CMS 721448, dated February 20, 2026, and on our reading of FDA's own warning letter index, recorded in the first section above. We hold no warning letter for TrimRx. Absence of a letter in our file is absence of a letter in our file, nothing more.
Ratings. Our 9.4 out of 10 is an editorial score and it is ours. The only outside figure on this page is TrimRx's 3.6 out of 5 on Trustpilot, observed 2026-09-11. We hold no third-party rating for Strut and therefore state none.
What is deliberately missing. No outcome figures appear anywhere on this page: no pounds, no percentages, no timelines. No dosing guidance either. We also left TrimRx's brand-name pricing and Strut's tirzepatide pricing blank, because we do not have them.
Final Verdict: Strut vs TrimRx
Where this lands
If the entry price decides it, Strut. $99 a month against $179 is a real $80 gap at the bottom tier, with a free MD visit, free follow-up care and free shipping listed alongside it. You are accepting two things in exchange. The product is compounded, so no FDA approval and no FDA review of safety, effectiveness or quality sits behind it. And the company has an FDA warning letter citing misbranding, specifically about how that compounded line was marketed, with the index status recorded above.
If you want a manufacturer-made pen on the menu, TrimRx. It is the only one of the two that lists brand-name Ozempic, Mounjaro, Zepbound and Wegovy, it prices a second compounded molecule at $259 a month, and our file holds no regulatory action against it. You pay $80 a month more at entry, you are still handed a compounded product at that entry tier, and its Trustpilot average of 3.6 out of 5 is worth reading before you decide.
If weight loss is one of several things you want handled, Strut is the only one of the two that treats anything else, with four further lines live from $25 a month.
This page recommends neither one. We earn a commission if you buy through our links, and that is true of both brands here. Two questions are worth asking before you pay: ask TrimRx what its brand-name tiers cost, and ask Strut where its February 2026 warning letter now stands.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which is cheaper for a GLP-1, Strut or TrimRx?
Strut, at the entry tier. Its compounded weight-loss floor is $99 a month against TrimRx's $179 a month, both verified as of 2026-08-21, so you are looking at $80 a month at the bottom of each menu. Those are floors, not quotes, and the tier you are actually placed in follows your intake rather than your budget.
Why did the FDA send Strut a warning letter?
The agency reviewed struthealth.com in December 2025 and, on February 20, 2026, issued Strut Health, LLC a warning letter citing misbranding. It raised two things: the Strut name on the pictured labels of its compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide products, which the FDA said represents Strut as the compounder when it is not, and site claims including "Generic Zepbound, Mounjaro", which the FDA said imply an approval that compounded drugs do not hold. The letter cites sections 502(a) and 502(bb) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The section above records what FDA's index showed when we checked it.
Can I get brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound through either of these?
TrimRx lists brand-name Ozempic, Mounjaro, Zepbound and Wegovy alongside its compounded tiers. We hold no price for those tiers, so ask TrimRx what the branded lane costs. Strut's weight-loss record, as we have it, lists the compounded injection only.
Is compounded semaglutide FDA approved?
No. A compounded medication is made to order rather than approved, so it is not an FDA-approved finished drug product and the FDA has not reviewed it for safety, effectiveness or quality. That is true of the compounded tiers on both sides of this page. The brand-name pens TrimRx lists are manufacturer-made medications, a different class of product from a compounded preparation, and that is the substance of the difference between the two lanes.
Does Strut treat anything besides weight loss?
Yes, four more lines are live with us: erectile dysfunction from $30 a month and premature ejaculation from $49 a month, both verified as of 2026-08-22, hair loss from $25 a month, verified as of 2026-07-22, and a women's health product from $49 a month, verified as of 2026-08-22. TrimRx is weight loss only.
What are these two rated?
We can only answer half of that. TrimRx sits at 3.6 out of 5 on Trustpilot, observed 2026-09-11. We hold no third-party rating for Strut, so we will not quote one in any form. Our own editorial score, which is a separate thing and is ours, is 9.4 out of 10 for both.
