Blue Sky MD vs Pomegranate Health
The verdict
Pomegranate Health takes it — 69.4/100 to 67.5/100, but only just.
Pomegranate Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Pomegranate Health sells compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide with no membership and no consultation fee. Blue Sky MD is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #170 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript certified and physician-led since 2008; one of the most established GLP-1 practices in the Southeast
- Compounded semaglutide from $40/week (~$160/month) and tirzepatide from $60/week (~$240/month) — well below brand-name cost
- Comprehensive program includes 1-on-1 wellness coaching, nutrition plans, hormone analysis, and a proprietary mobile app
- Medication shipped directly to patients’ homes within 3–5 business days; telehealth visits available
- Insurance accepted in many cases; affordable self-pay options for uninsured patients
Where it loses points
- Geographic reach unclear — physical clinics in NC only; telehealth states beyond NC unconfirmed despite 'from virtually anywhere' claim
- Pricing quoted per-week ($40 sema / $60 tirz) rather than per-month; higher-dose pricing not disclosed
- Must enroll in full medical weight-loss program to access GLP-1 medications — medication-only Rx not offered
- No explicit lab testing protocol published; online FAQ does not confirm labs are included
- Small regional provider vs. national platforms; limited provider footprint outside North Carolina
Graded #128 · C
Strengths
- No membership and no consultation fee — the site states 'No Membership required' and 'Transparent pricing, no hidden fees'
- The semaglutide price sits in the product page's own static HTML, so it can be read before any intake
- Shipping is included: 'shipped discreetly to your door at no extra cost'
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide are offered
Where it loses points
- The tirzepatide price is not on the public site at all — it exists only inside the in-app pricing portal, and there is no standalone tirzepatide product page to read it from
- Both published figures are floors, a 'Starts @' and a Starter tier, and no price is published for the dose you titrate up to
- The states it can prescribe in are not disclosed anywhere; the dataset's own note records that semaglutide was unavailable in CA, IA and WI
- Klarna, Afterpay and Affirm are offered at checkout, so any monthly figure seen in a financing widget is an instalment and not the medication price
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
