Strengths

  • Ships compounded GLP-1s to all 50 states
  • Physician-supervised intake before any prescription

Elara MD

Graded #467 · C

Strengths

  • Dose-banded monthly pricing published on-site ($249–$649/mo across tiers)

  • Medication included in the monthly price with free fast shipping when prescribed
  • Broad reach claimed (over 40 states)

Where it loses points

  • Molecules not named on-site (only 'Personalized GLP-1') — compounded status is inferred
  • No FDA compounded-medication disclaimer published
  • No named compounding pharmacy partner — prescriptions are patient-directed
  • LegitScript certification, medical director, and full state list not disclosed
  • Pricier than several compounded competitors
