Graded #372 · C

Strengths

  • LegitScript-certified with an independently verifiable seal (#50306023) and HIPAA compliance — a strong trust signal for a compounded-GLP-1 telehealth
  • Names its dispensing pharmacy: Red Rock Compounding Pharmacy, LegitScript-certified and NABP-accredited, licensed in 49 states plus DC
  • Flat pricing at every dose ("same price at every dose, no surprises") plus free expedited shipping, so your cost won't rise as you titrate up
  • Competitive prepay rates — compounded semaglutide as low as $179/mo (12-mo) and tirzepatide $299/mo — with zero interest and no credit check
  • Money-back guarantee for qualifying patients who complete the full 28-week program without losing weight; available in all 50 states + DC

Where it loses points

  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only — no brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound or Ozempic — and compounded GLP-1s aren't FDA-reviewed or approved
  • Even the "monthly" plan requires a 3-month commitment with three months of medication shipped and billed upfront — limited month-to-month flexibility
  • Standing month-to-month pricing is steep ($279 semaglutide, $399 tirzepatide); the lowest rates require 6- or 12-month prepay
  • The provider chooses semaglutide vs tirzepatide for you, so you can't freely pick your own molecule
  • Registered as Aspen Health Systems LLC at a Sheridan, WY address; async model with no routine video visit
Kin Meds

Graded #73 · C

Strengths

  • Publicly lists $199/mo compounded semaglutide and $249/mo compounded tirzepatide
  • Brand-name options too — Wegovy injection and pill, Zepbound, Foundayo from $149/mo entry pricing
  • LegitScript verified
  • Clearly identifies itself as the intake platform and a licensed third-party pharmacy as the dispenser
  • Broad longevity menu (Sermorelin, NAD+, Glutathione) plus TRT, hair, skin, and sexual health

Where it loses points

  • Legal entity name and state of incorporation not publicly disclosed
  • The third-party pharmacy partner isn't named, and Kin Meds isn't itself a licensed pharmacy
  • Per-state availability not listed
  • $149/mo brand pricing is the insured entry tier — cash-pay patients should expect higher real costs
  • Lab work and dose-titration support not clearly described
