The verdict

Care Clinics takes it — 85.4/100 to 67/100.

Care Clinics grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. The cheapest both-molecule pairing in the ranking ($100/$133) from a LegitScript-verified operator.

We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.

Graded #189 · C

FDAWarning letter issued to OrderlyMeds LLC dba OrderlyMeds in June 2026. See the FDA warning-letter database.

Strengths

  • Brand-name routes are priced openly, at retail

Where it loses points

  • Brand-name routes are priced at retail: Wegovy $1,839 and Zepbound $1,498
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
