Alan Meds vs Alloy
The verdict
Alloy takes it — 72.2/100 to 71.1/100, but only just.
Alloy grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Alloy is a menopause-focused telehealth brand whose Weight Care program runs the broadest GLP-1 formulary in our catalog — brand Wegovy, brand Zepbound, oral Wegovy, plus compounded semaglutide, tirzepatide… Alan Meds is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #80 · C
Strengths
- Broadest GLP-1 formulary here: brand Wegovy and Zepbound, oral Wegovy, plus compounded semaglutide, tirzepatide, and liraglutide
- All consulting doctors are certified by The Menopause Society — a rare credential
- STARTGLP1 promo code takes $50 off the first month
- Spans the price range: compounded semaglutide from $70/mo, brand Wegovy from $199/mo (each plus the $99/mo Weight Care fee)
Where it loses points
- Menopause-focused — best for women in menopause or perimenopause, not men or younger patients
- A mandatory $99/mo Alloy Weight Care fee sits on top of every medication price (so the true minimum is ~$169/mo, not $70)
- Compounded semaglutide not available in AL, AR, CA, NV, LA, MS or DC
