The verdict

iThriveMD takes it — 66.7/100 to 65.7/100, but only just.

iThriveMD grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. iThriveMD is a longevity and metabolic-health clinic (physical locations plus telehealth) offering compounded GLP-1 weight loss — semaglutide (from $299/mo) and tirzepatide (from $399/mo), plus microdosing… Coby Health is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

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.

  • Beluga Health P.A. clinical network — board-certified, 50-state licensure
  • Trustpilot 4.9/5 (~83 reviews)

Where it loses points

  • Premium pricing — higher than budget compounded-GLP-1 competitors (lowest rates need 'preferred pricing')

  • Compounding pharmacy partner not named
  • Not LegitScript-certified (no certification displayed)
