Graded #20 · B
Strengths
- Lowest combined price ($100 sema / $133 tirz)
- LegitScript-verified
- Both molecules
Where it loses points
- Only 32 states — not nationwide
- Injection-only
- Labs/monitoring not published
Graded #453 · C
Strengths
- Unusually broad GLP-1 lineup — compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in both oral tablets and injection, plus microdosing and longevity add-ons
- Online process with licensed-provider oversight, virtual consults, progress tracking and home delivery
- Oral tablet options for people who would rather not inject
Where it loses points
- Prices are not shown publicly — you only see costs after creating an account, so you cannot compare value upfront
- Labels its oral semaglutide 'research-grade' — wording usually tied to research/non-prescription peptides; confirm it is prescribed for human use
- Does not name its compounding pharmacy or list the states it serves; the listed address is a private mailbox (PMB), not a clinic
- Compounded GLP-1 only — no brand-name or insurance options; small, lightly documented operation
