What does sermorelin cost in each channel?
Prices in US dollars at the verification date. Ranges are published list or program prices where a primary source exists; notes say when a figure is a typical market range instead.
| Channel | Price (USD) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| With insurance | Not published | Not covered. Medicare Part D and commercial pharmacy benefits cover FDA approved drugs for accepted indications; compounded or unapproved peptides are paid in cash. [6] |
| Branded, from a pharmacy | Not published | No branded product. Geref was withdrawn from the US market in 2008 and its approvals were withdrawn in 2009, so there is no current list price. [1] |
| Telehealth program | $105 to $180per month | Published prices from two licensed telehealth providers, checked 2026-09-22, each including the physician visit, medication, supplies, and shipping from a licensed or 503A pharmacy: one lists $105 per month on a quarterly plan or $149 month to month; the other lists $149.99 for the first month and $179.99 per month after that. [1] [2] [3] |
| Compounded pharmacy | Not published | No dated lawful 503A pharmacy price found. The one published per-vial pharmacy list we had checked also marketed routine compounded GLP-1 copies and research-style stacks, so we do not use it as a source. Compounded prices are usually bundled into the telehealth or clinic channels above. Pharmacies compound sermorelin on the basis of the withdrawn Geref approval, which FDA found was not withdrawn for safety or effectiveness reasons. [1] [5] |
