Graded #1 · A−
Strengths
- Flat all-in price with no month-two step-up
- Semaglutide and tirzepatide on one account
- All 50 states, LegitScript-verified
Where it loses points
- Not the cheapest sticker price
- Compounded only
- Pharmacy partner not yet publicly named
Graded #31 · B−
Strengths
- The price holds at every dose — stated as “same price, every dose” — so titration does not raise the bill
- $79 for semaglutide and $109 for tirzepatide on a one-month plan are at the low end of what this ranking records
- States its compounding class in the footer of every page: state-licensed 503A compounding pharmacies
- Names four dispensing pharmacies with addresses and phone numbers, and names the prescribing medical group
- A nutritionist and unlimited check-ins are included, and shipping is free
Where it loses points
- The $49 in the homepage hero is the twelve-month tier, not the month-to-month rate, and the same page carries a “price increases in” countdown with no dated deadline
- A homepage chip reads “no auto rebill” while the Terms describe automatic charging at recurring intervals until canceled
- An “eligible for insurance” chip sits against an FAQ calling the service self-pay and Terms barring reimbursement from any payor
- The refund page signs both “Leanmeds, Inc.” and “Leanmeds LLC”, chooses Florida law and then fixes venue in Fulton County, Georgia
- A satisfaction rating and a member count are published with no platform and no denominator
- No individual clinician or NPI is published — the medical group is named, its clinicians are not
