Graded #184 · C
Strengths
- 3-month compounded semaglutide at $169/mo is among the lowest ongoing prices in the category
- Price-lock promise — same price every dose, no hidden fees
- Both compounded and brand-name options on one platform (sema, tirz, plus Ozempic and Zepbound)
- Nationwide availability with async evaluation — no in-person visit
- Broader wellness menu (sermorelin, NAD+, HRT, hair loss) lets you consolidate protocols
Where it loses points
- Compounded medications aren't FDA-approved and lack the review of brand-name GLP-1s
- Pharmacy partners not named — no way to verify the compounding source or batch testing
- Claims nationwide coverage but publishes no state list — confirm at intake
- Headline results (9.6 lbs in 30 days) come from self-reported patient data, not a trial
- Wide wellness funnel may steer you toward non-weight-loss protocols
