| Plan term | Lavender Sky Health | TMates | Cheaper |
|---|---|---|---|
| Month to month | $352 | $297 | TMates by $55 |
| 12-month term | — | $167 | only TMates publishes this term |
| Settled dose | Lavender Sky Health | TMates | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.5 mg | $3,000 | $3,564 | $564 apart |
| 10 mg | $4,524 | $3,564 | $960 apart |
Lavender Sky Health publishes no rate for 3-month term, 6-month term, 12-month term; TMates publishes none for 3-month term, 6-month term. An unpublished term is not necessarily unavailable — it is unpriced in public, which you can only resolve by asking.
A titration year is not twelve months at the maintenance price. Stepping up roughly four weeks per dose before settling at 10 mg/week, the first twelve months work out to $4,397 on Lavender Sky Health and $3,564 on TMates — $833 apart, and a different gap from the $960 you would get by multiplying the monthly difference by twelve. The ramp is cheaper than the settled rate on whichever program prices by dose, which is why a first-year quote and a steady-state quote are not the same number.
That calculation is partial: Lavender Sky Health publishes no price at 2 of the 6 doses and TMates publishes no price at 2 of them, so the maintenance rate stands in for the missing steps rather than a number the company has stated.
Value Scores are 44.1 for Lavender Sky Health and 55.3 for TMates, against a tirzepatide category floor of $169. TMates leads by 11.2 points, driven mostly by price.

Semaglutide
Plan pages: Lavender Sky Health plans · TMates plans
At 2.4 mg/week, Lavender Sky Health is $199 a month all-in and TMates is $249 — $50 apart, or $600 across a year. Over twelve months the totals are $2,388 (billed monthly) and $1,896 (prepaid term).
Lavender Sky Health charges a flat $174 per month for semaglutide at every dose from 0.25 to 2.4 mg per week, so titrating upward does not change what you pay. The company publishes no price at 0.5, 1, 1.7 mg, so those doses are left blank rather than estimated.

Where the two programs differ
All-in monthly
TMates is cheaper month to month — $297 against $377, a gap of $80 every month, or $960 across a year if both rates hold.
Cancellation terms
Cancellation differs: Lavender Sky Health states Cancel before renewal, while TMates states Per provider terms. Read this next to the twelve-month figures — a prepaid discount and a restrictive refund policy are the same decision.
Commitment
Lavender Sky Health asks for Month-to-month; TMates asks for 12-month plan or month-to-month; substantial difference in rates. This is the dimension most likely to change which program is actually cheaper for you, because the lowest rates on both sides are usually attached to the longest terms.
Evidence status
The two prices are not equally well evidenced. Lavender Sky Health's figure is provider-stated and TMates's is reported. Lavender Sky Health rests on the stronger of the two, and the Value Score below reflects that — evidence quality is worth fifteen points and is not a tiebreaker we apply after the fact.
Membership fee
Lavender Sky Health charges a membership of $25 a month on top of the medication. That is already folded into the all-in figures above — it is broken out here because a membership is a recurring charge that continues even in a month you skip a shipment.
Twelve-month cost
Over twelve months the totals are $4,524 for Lavender Sky Health and $2,004 for TMates. TMates is lower by $2,520 — a figure worth checking against the cancellation terms below, because a prepaid year is only cheaper if you stay on it.
Dose policy
Both price by dose, so both advertised figures understate the cost of a titration year. Compare the ladders above rather than the headline rates.
Shipping
Shipping is handled the same way by both — included in the quoted price.

Ask Lavender Sky Health and TMates for each of those in writing before enrolling. A gap is not evidence of a problem; it does mean nothing can be checked against it.
What would change this answer
Evidence may be upgraded. TMates carries a price we have not captured at checkout. A capture would move the evidence term and could reorder these two without any price changing.
Prepaid terms move the annual figures. TMates publishes a twelve-month rate of $167 a month against $297 month-to-month. Read those next to the cancellation terms, not the monthly rate.
Which one suits which reader
On the lowest standing monthly rate for tirzepatide, TMates Official site wins this matchup. If you want to be able to pause without still paying, tmates carries no membership; and if you would rather trust a better-evidenced number, lavender sky health's price rests on stronger provenance.
Both figures should be checked at the provider's own checkout before you pay. Lavender Sky Health's tirzepatide price is provider-stated as of 2026-08-05; TMates's is reported as of 2026-07-14.
