Graded #275 · C
Strengths
- Pricing fully published and bundled: $89 first month, then $199/mo all-in — more transparent than most compounded brands
- LegitScript Certified
- Care-inclusive model: consults, monthly monitoring, and secure messaging rather than Rx-only
- Unusually candid about the limited evidence base for microdosing
Where it loses points
- Microdose-only model — sub-therapeutic doses have thinner trial evidence and likely smaller weight loss than full-dose tirzepatide
- No semaglutide or standard full-dose option
- No named compounding pharmacy partner
- No state list and no named medical director or pharmacist-in-charge
Graded #402 · C
Strengths
- Broad menu: semaglutide, tirzepatide, and liraglutide
- Both oral and injectable formulations offered
- Physician-led; medical director Dr. Brett Brechner, DO
- Both in-person Chicago visits and statewide telehealth
- Doorstep delivery throughout Illinois
Where it loses points
- Telehealth limited to Illinois only
- No pricing published online
- Compounded vs brand formulation not specified
- Med-spa positioning blends weight loss with aesthetics
