Graded #424 · C
Strengths
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in both injectable and oral-capsule forms, plus microdose options
- Packages bundle the telehealth visit, medication, and shipping; Registered Dietitian support included
- Full legal suite published — Terms, Privacy Policy, Privacy Practices, and Medical Consent
- Broad menu: also TRT, HRT (estradiol), sexual health, hair loss, and longevity (sermorelin, NAD+)
Where it loses points
- Pricing not shown publicly — products and costs appear only after the intake flow
- Sold as 3- and 6-month packages rather than simple monthly plans
- Compounding pharmacy partner not named ('made in licensed US facilities')
- Not LegitScript-certified (no certification displayed)
Graded #498 · C
Strengths
- Publishes the full price ladder for all three plan terms — intro month and renewal rate — directly in its FAQ
- Medication is included in the plan price, with no separate pharmacy charge
- States plainly that its compounded GLP-1s are 'not FDA-approved and have not been reviewed by the FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality'
- Companion app tracks weight, protein and side effects, with medication schedule reminders
- You are not charged unless a provider approves treatment
Where it loses points
- At $449 per 4 weeks, the standing 1-month plan is among the most expensive compounded GLP-1 options we track
- The advertised $129 is the 6-month plan's intro month only — that plan then renews at $1,794 every 24 weeks
- Billed every 4 weeks rather than monthly, which is 13 charges a year instead of 12
- Never names which GLP-1 molecule is dispensed — only 'compounded, non-FDA-approved GLP-1 medications'
- No pharmacy or prescribing medical group is named anywhere on the site
