Levers Health review

What it is

Levers Health is an online clinic selling compounded peptides and wellness injections, including sermorelin, NAD+ and glutathione. Sermorelin is sold as a home injection kit. Each month's kit holds one vial, syringes and supplies, with instructions. The medication is compounded sermorelin acetate from a state-licensed 503A pharmacy. Levers explains that sermorelin was once FDA-approved as Geref, which was discontinued for reasons unrelated to safety, and that today's compounded versions are not FDA-approved. Levers recommends it for both men and women. It sets out a rough timeline: deeper sleep and faster workout recovery in weeks one to four, strength and skin firmness in weeks four to eight, and body-composition changes from about week nine. It says everyone responds differently.

How it works

You check out first, then get an emailed link to the medical intake forms. A licensed provider reviews them for anything that would rule sermorelin out, and may contact you to clarify. You are not charged unless you are approved, and if you are turned down Levers says it will tell you why. After approval, orders usually process in one to two business days, up to six, and ship overnight by FedEx or UPS. PO boxes are not accepted. Your tracking number arrives by email and text. You can message your practitioner at any time in your account, and book free calls with a clinical advisor. Once you are approved, you can reorder whenever you need to, following your dosing plan. Levers also takes calls and texts on a published support line.

Pricing transparency

All three plans are billed and shipped monthly. The one-month plan is $222 a month. The two-month plan is $188 a month, and the four-month plan is $159 a month. If you would rather not subscribe, a single month is $297. Every plan includes the vial, supplies, free shipping, the telehealth visit and ongoing provider support. Levers says there are no other fees. You can cancel, pause or reschedule a subscription at any time without penalty. Ask how cancellation works partway through a two- or four-month plan before you choose one. The saving is large: the four-month plan costs $63 a month less than the one-month plan, or $252 over four months. Levers itself recommends at least three to four months on sermorelin at a time, so the longer plans match how it expects you to use it. FSA and HSA cards are accepted at checkout, alongside major credit cards and PayPal. Levers does not take insurance.

Branded vs compounded

Levers publishes its dose, which many sellers do not. Every plan ships 9 mg of sermorelin a month. The standard schedule is 250 mcg a day, five days a week, or about 6 mg a month, so the 9 mg covers the highest dose Levers recommends. In most states the vial strength is 1 mg per mL. In California, Indiana and South Carolina it is 3 mg per mL. Levers says it picks pharmacies for purity, safety and sterility, and labels the plan third-party tested. Levers says sermorelin does not change appetite, and it pitches sermorelin as a companion to GLP-1 weight-loss medication. Its safety notes are unusually full. It lists injection-site redness, flushing, headaches and a temporary rise in blood sugar in the first weeks as possible side effects. It says sermorelin is not for people who are pregnant or breastfeeding, allergic to it, or have active cancer. People with an underactive thyroid or a cancer history should talk to their doctor first. It also names drugs that may blunt sermorelin, such as aspirin and prednisone. Levers suggests taking one to two months off a year if you use it continuously.

Pros and watch-outs

The evidence behind what Levers Health prescribes

We grade the molecules, not the marketing. Here is what the human data actually shows for each thing on their menu.

• Sermorelin Dosage Chart: mcg, mL and Units vs. the Trial Dose

  A mcg-to-mL-to-units chart with the math shown, the doses sermorelin trials actually used, how they compare to what sellers market, and why nobody has tested a “bodybuilding dose” in a controlled study.

• Does sermorelin work? What the trials actually measured

  Sermorelin reliably makes your pituitary release growth hormone. Beyond that the evidence is one placebo-controlled trial in 19 adults from 1997 — lean body mass up in men only, nothing in women, and no effect on sleep in either.
