Arc-1 vs OlleveCare
The verdict
Arc-1 takes it — 56.3/100 to 46.2/100.
Arc-1 grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Arc-1 offers compounded semaglutide (from $249.99) and compounded tirzepatide (from $299.99) as per-dose purchases, not monthly subscriptions.
We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.
