    Quick Answer: How to Cancel LifeMD

    2. Request your medical records from LifeMD for continuity of care.

    LifeMD and Trimi are completely separate, unaffiliated companies. This guide is informational and based on publicly available information about LifeMD's subscription model. Always check LifeMD's current cancellation policy directly on their website.

    Why Patients Cancel LifeMD

    LifeMD is a major telehealth platform offering a weight management program including GLP-1 medications (semaglutide, tirzepatide). Their program typically runs $129-$229/month depending on tier, plus medication costs. Patients commonly cancel due to the membership-plus-medication structure adding up to higher all-in costs than expected, or finding more specialized GLP-1-focused providers.

    If you've decided to cancel LifeMD, this guide walks you through the practical steps, common pitfalls, and what to do about your prescription continuity. The most important thing: start with your new provider before canceling, so you don't have a gap in your GLP-1 treatment.

    Step-by-Step Cancellation Process

    LifeMD requires cancellation through the account dashboard or by contacting customer support. Some plans may allow cancellation via email to membersupport@lifemd.com.

    1. 1
      Log into your LifeMD account at lifemd.com/account
    2. 2
      Navigate to 'My Subscriptions' or 'Membership' → find weight management plan → click 'Cancel'
    3. 3
      If the cancel option isn't accessible online, contact support at membersupport@lifemd.com — request written confirmation
    4. 4
      Complete any retention prompts (LifeMD typically offers discounted rates or pause options) — compare against alternatives before accepting
    5. 5
      Confirm cancellation via email and verify the next billing cycle shows no charge

    Things to Watch For

    LifeMD bills the membership and the medication separately on some plans — confirm both stop

    Auto-renewal applies a few days before the next billing date — cancel 5-7 days early to avoid being charged

    Prepaid quarterly or annual plans may have refund restrictions

    Medication already shipped or in transit will still be billed

    LifeMD's broader telehealth services (urgent care, dermatology) may continue billing if you only cancel the weight management add-on

    After Canceling: Switching to Trimi

    If LifeMD's cost or fit isn't right, Trimi offers compounded semaglutide at $99/month and compounded tirzepatide at $125/month — flat pricing, no membership fees, board-certified provider oversight, and 5-10 day delivery.

Always consult a licensed clinician about whether compounded GLP-1 medication is appropriate for your individual health situation.

    What does the current clinical evidence support for GLP-1-based weight management?

    GLP-1 receptor agonists (semaglutide, tirzepatide) have Phase 3 RCT evidence for chronic weight management in adults with BMI ≥30 or BMI ≥27 with a weight-related comorbidity. Trimi offers compounded preparations of the same active ingredients at $99/month (semaglutide) and $125/month (tirzepatide) on the annual plan, prepared per individual prescription by 503A community sterile compounding pharmacies and reviewed by a US-licensed clinician through Beluga Health's 50-state physician network. Compounded preparations are not themselves FDA-approved as drugs; the active ingredients are FDA-approved in the corresponding brand finished products. Eligibility is determined by a licensed clinician.

    Phase 3 RCT evidence base: STEP 1 (NEJM 2021), SURMOUNT-1 (NEJM 2022), SELECT (NEJM 2023), FLOW (NEJM 2024)
    Trimi pricing: $99/month semaglutide / $125/month tirzepatide on annual plan
    Clinical review: Dr. Asad Niazi, MD MPH via Beluga Health 50-state network

    Key Takeaways

    • Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide are prepared per individual prescription by 503A community sterile compounding pharmacies (VialsRx — Texas State Board pharmacy license #35264 — and GreenwichRx). The active ingredients (semaglutide, tirzepatide) are FDA-approved in the corresponding brand finished products (Wegovy / Ozempic and Zepbound / Mounjaro respectively). Compounded preparations are not themselves FDA-approved as drugs.
    • Eligibility for GLP-1 treatment is determined by a licensed clinician: BMI ≥30, or BMI ≥27 with at least one weight-related comorbidity (type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea, cardiovascular disease). Contraindications include personal/family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, MEN 2 syndrome, pancreatitis, severe gastrointestinal disease, severe renal impairment, pregnancy, and breastfeeding.
    • Common GLP-1 receptor agonist adverse effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and gallbladder events. Most are mild-to-moderate and concentrated during dose escalation. Severe gastrointestinal symptoms causing dehydration can increase acute kidney injury risk and should be reported to the prescribing clinician.
    • Trimi's clinical review is coordinated by Dr. Asad Niazi, MD MPH through Beluga Health's 50-state physician network. Trimi pricing: $99/month for compounded semaglutide and $125/month for compounded tirzepatide on the annual plan; flat across all prescribed doses within whichever plan, with no enrollment / consultation / shipping fees.
    • This is general information based on the cited sources, not medical advice. Treatment decisions require evaluation by a licensed clinician familiar with your individual medical history.
