Graded #84 · 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
Graded #146 · C
Strengths
- Industry-lowest GLP-1 pricing: compounded semaglutide from $25/vial, tirzepatide from $45/vial — no subscription or recurring commitment required
- Real 503A telehealth Rx: licensed NP/PA prescribers + MD medical director (Dr. Jonathan Snipes, NPI 1821250077); patient-specific Rx dispensed by
- FedEx overnight shipping at $15 flat; ships pre-reconstituted and includes syringes, alcohol wipes, and reusable cooled travel case

- No subscription required; $39 flat visit fee covers up to 3 peptides per Rx; pay per vial with no ongoing commitment
Where it loses points
- No LegitScript certification; company founded 2026 — no public track record or long-term patient-outcomes data
- Minimal clinical oversight: $39 asynchronous intake form only — no live video consult required, no labs mandated, no monitoring protocol; lowest
- Per-vial pricing makes true monthly cost opaque; every refill costs another $39 visit fee on top of vial price and $15 shipping
- Only 28 states + DC; excludes California, most of the Southeast (AL, AR, GA, MS, NC, SC, TN, VA), and parts of Midwest
- No coaching, labs, dietitian support, or clinical monitoring included at any tier — purely prescription + dispensing
