What FDA cited
Quoted verbatim from the letter dated
Read the full letter →This letter is to advise you that the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviewed your website content at the internet address https://rxmadesimple.com in August 2025 and has observed that your website offers various compounded drug products, including semaglutide and tirzepatide.

“The following claims concerning compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide products appear on your website:”

- 3

Is SimpleRx still operating?
rxmadesimple.com still resolved on 2026-08-09, but it did not serve a storefront: the page returned was a placeholder headed "Pardon our dust! We're working on something amazing — check back soon!" with no catalogue, no prices and no mention of semaglutide or tirzepatide, and the site's sitemap returned a WordPress "Database Error". That is not evidence the company has closed — a placeholder can precede a relaunch — so we record this as unconfirmed rather than guessing either way.
What this means for what you pay
The three things FDA cited here are not promises, arguments or adjectives — they are the names on the menu. "Tirzepatide (Zepbound)" reads as a helpful gloss, the kind of parenthetical a pharmacy might add so you know what you are looking at, and "Tirzepatide (generic Zepbound)" goes one step further into a word with a specific regulatory meaning that a compounded product does not have. That is what makes this letter useful when you are comparing prices: you can screen a site for overblown promises and still miss this, because the naming happens before any promise is made. The line item itself is doing the persuading. As for the price behind those names, we could not check it — the storefront was a placeholder when we looked, and we have recorded that rather than assumed the rest.
Has SimpleRx responded?
As of , FDA’s public tracking for this letter does not show a logged company response. Companies are not required to make a response public, and FDA does not always update this field promptly — this is not evidence SimpleRx failed to respond.
