Graded #406 · C
Strengths
- Broadest menu in the directory — compounded sema/tirz injection, oral sema, brand Ozempic and Mounjaro, Sermorelin, MIC/B12
- Consistent pricing at all dosages — flat rate, no escalation as you titrate up
- Compounded oral semaglutide at $125/mo is competitive for a niche most providers don't offer
- Free expedited shipping included
- Phone support published (uncommon among DTC platforms)
Where it loses points
- States served not listed — can't confirm coverage in your state without contacting support
- LegitScript status not disclosed — no badge or verifiable ID
- FDA compounded-medication disclaimer not displayed
- Medical director / clinical lead not named — only generic 'certified healthcare providers'
- Pharmacy partner not named; 503A vs 503B unspecified
Graded #351 · C
Strengths
- Compounded semaglutide ($189/mo) and tirzepatide ($276/mo) injectables, with lower per-month pricing on the 3-month plans ($176 and $233/mo)
- Clear, upfront plan pages showing monthly and multi-month pricing with no surprise fees
- Care from licensed US providers with monthly home delivery and ongoing dose support
- Bilingual English/Spanish site and a broader telehealth menu (TRT, longevity, hair, sexual health) for people who want more than weight loss
Where it loses points
- Doesn't publish the states it serves — you only learn eligibility after starting the intake
- Compounding pharmacies aren't named on the site
- Mid-range pricing — cheaper compounded GLP-1 options exist and the 3-month discount is modest
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injectables only — no brand-name or oral options
- Self-hosted affiliate program (not a vetted network); Florida/Palm Beach framing suggests a regional lean
