Graded #289 · C
Strengths
- Offers both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, with every dose priced the same so cost does not rise as you titrate up.
- LegitScript-certified (seal #51079066) and names both its 503A compounding pharmacy, VialsRx, and its provider network, Beluga Health.
- Transparent tiered pricing with a real month-to-month option; consultation, medication, and free expedited shipping included, no membership.
- Available in all 50 states with same-day provider review; no insurance needed and HSA/FSA accepted.
Where it loses points
- Very new (2026 launch) with a thin track record; the site still shows a Webflow template credit and a leftover Cora reference in its Terms.
- The cheapest headline rates ($99 semaglutide / $135 tirzepatide) require a 12-month prepay; true month-to-month is $175 and $225.
- Both product pages currently display an out-of-stock status, so availability may be inconsistent.
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved or therapeutically equivalent to Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound.
Graded #362 · C
Strengths
- Broad compounded GLP-1 menu — semaglutide (+B12), tirzepatide, oral semaglutide/tirzepatide capsules, plus Lipo-B
- Large peptide/longevity catalog (BPC-157, GHK-Cu, NAD+, MOTS-C) across injectable, oral, topical, and nasal formats
- Clinician-guided, compounded at FDA-registered pharmacies; partners with a licensed physician network (Samaritan MD)
- Full legal suite published (Terms, Privacy, HIPAA Notice, CCPA, Returns & Refunds)
Where it loses points
- Pricing not shown upfront — revealed only at checkout after a dose selection
- Offers investigational/research compounds (e.g., retatrutide, AOD-9604) that are not FDA-approved
- Compounding pharmacy partner not named ('FDA-registered pharmacies')
- Not LegitScript-certified (no certification displayed)
