Rixa Health
A functional medicine telehealth practice selling compounded oral dissolving semaglutide with vitamin B12, priced by exact dose and supply length: $140 for thirty days at 2mg, $180 at 5mg, $225 at 12mg, and ninety-day options at $295 and $395. It also runs a GLP-1 programme for teenagers with lab monitoring and behavioural support. One statement on that page about FDA approval does not match the approval as it actually stands.

These are things we could not settle from published pages, or that we think are easy to misread. Get answers in writing.
Someone who specifically wants a needle-free option and values seeing the exact milligram strength attached to each price — after pressing hard on the absorption question.
For branded products, yes, within limits: Wegovy is FDA-approved for chronic weight management from age 12, and Saxenda from age 12, while Ozempic is approved for type 2 diabetes in adolescents. Rixa's teen page says semaglutide is approved from age 16, which does not match those approvals. Separately and more importantly, a compounded oral semaglutide preparation is not FDA-approved at any age. If you are considering this for a teenager, establish exactly which product is being proposed before anything else.
They do not compare directly, and that is the difficulty. Injectable semaglutide is dosed weekly from 0.25mg up to 2.4mg; these tablets are quoted at 2mg, 5mg and 12mg of total content. Oral absorption of semaglutide is poor without a specific enhancer — which is why the approved oral product uses one — so a higher number on the label does not mean a higher dose reaching your bloodstream. Ask what weekly injectable equivalent the provider is aiming for and what evidence supports it.
