Graded #16 · 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 #43 · C+
Strengths
- The figure is stated as the full price with no membership fee, free shipping included, on the product page itself
- Names a medical director by name and board certification, and a second named provider
- Baseline labs are described as included when a clinician requires them, with deeper panels priced openly at $149 and a $129 monthly bloodwork plan
- Coverage is all 50 states and the District of Columbia, stated without a hedge
- Roughly forty prescription peptide products are priced alongside the GLP-1 lines
Where it loses points
- The site prints $79 on its own semaglutide cost page and $109 on the same page, and $149 against $179 for tirzepatide; the figures that transact are $109 and $179
- The product pages label the figure an all-in monthly price while the billing terms set the cycle at 28 days and warn it can bill twice in one calendar month
- An “FDA cleared” badge sits in the homepage trust cluster while the product pages state that compounded medication is neither FDA-approved nor FDA-cleared
- “Our pharmacy partners” names exactly one, Olympia, with no legal entity or address, while the same page says the filling pharmacy varies by patient
- Payment is taken before a physician reviews the intake, and the refund is the remedy
- Labs are conditional rather than included, despite plan copy that reads as though they are standard
