Graded #181 · C
Strengths
- Two clear compounded GLP-1 pathways with transparent pricing — semaglutide $179/mo and tirzepatide $279/mo
- Fast, free shipping and a simple few-minute online health assessment
- Provider-guided care connecting patients with licensed US clinicians
- Publishes Terms, Privacy, and Refund policies
Where it loses points
- Claims LegitScript certification in text but displays no verifiable seal or listing
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved (the site discloses this) — not brand Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, or Mounjaro
- Compounding pharmacy not named; no HIPAA notice found; state availability not published
- Heavily hedged marketing language ('may include', 'helping connect patients') — reads like a lead-generation platform
Graded #65 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript Certified seal displayed on the marketing site (the standard third-party telehealth/pharmacy accreditation)
- Free and fast delivery + 24/7 patient support disclosed on the home page
- Newark, DE address suggests a US-incorporated entity (vs offshore)
- $139 first-month price for compounded semaglutide injection is among the cheapest in the US compounded telehealth market
- $229 first-month price for compounded tirzepatide injection sits in the lower-median range
Where it loses points
- Standard ongoing monthly price NOT publicly disclosed (gated behind checkout) — patients should ask for the maintenance-dose price before committing
- Specific legal entity name + state of incorporation NOT publicly disclosed on the home page — material YMYL transparency gap
- Pharmacy partners NOT publicly named — material YMYL transparency gap
- Per-state availability NOT enumerated; verify your state ships before purchase
- Lab work + coaching support NOT publicly disclosed
