Cost Plus Drugs vs REMEVi
The verdict
REMEVi takes it — 73.5/100 to 58.5/100.
REMEVi grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. REMEVi is the first bilingual (English and Spanish) GLP-1 telehealth clinic — care delivered by clinicians trained in both languages, never auto-translated.
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 #370 · C
Strengths
- Transparent pricing: wholesale cost + 15% markup + $5 pharmacy fee, the same for everyone
- Around $279/mo for branded Ozempic — well below typical retail list prices
- Mark Cuban's PBM-disrupting pharmacy, praised by Forbes Health, Wired, and KFF Health News
- Ships to all 50 states; genuine FDA-approved Novo Nordisk Ozempic, not compounded
- Partnered with 9amHealth so you can get prescribed and fill at Cost Plus pricing
Where it loses points
- Fulfillment only — no telehealth intake; you need a prescription from an outside clinician
- Ozempic is FDA-indicated for type 2 diabetes, not weight management — weight-loss use is off-label
- Wegovy availability has been spotty — check current stock before assuming it ships
- No compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide — brand only
- No clinical follow-up — side-effect monitoring falls to your prescribing clinician
Graded #70 · C
Strengths
- A genuinely flat rate: 'the same price at every dose', stated as such, with no dose upcharge and no introductory rate to step off
- Longer terms are published openly rather than used as a teaser — semaglutide falls to $189 on 12 weeks and $149 on 52
- A daily oral semaglutide tablet is offered alongside the injection
- Available in all 50 states and DC, with no minimum commitment and no cancellation fee
Where it loses points
- The flat rate is the highest entry price of the top-scoring programmes here; the cheaper $149 figure needs a full year
- No FDA-approved brand-name pathway — the Wegovy and Ozempic pages are comparison content, not products
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
