The verdict
Embody takes it — 76.5/100 to 60.4/100.
Embody grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Embody offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide via injection plus a unique compounded oral tirzepatide gum formulation.

Graded #52 · C
Strengths
- Among the lowest flat rates in the compounded segment — $79/mo semaglutide and $129/mo tirzepatide injection at every dose
- Unique compounded oral tirzepatide gum formulation — alternative for patients who prefer not to inject
- Available in all 50 states with no insurance friction
- 24/7 unlimited clinician messaging and dose-adjustment support included
- Medical leadership by Dr. Alan Viglione, board-certified in Internal Medicine
Where it loses points
- The $79 flat rate relies on an auto-applied promo 'locked forever' — list price in the terms is $199/mo and reviewers allege the lock isn't honored
- Compounded only — no FDA-approved brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, or Mounjaro option
- Pharmacy partners not publicly named — compounding source transparency is limited
- Compounded oral tirzepatide does not have an FDA-approved counterpart, and oral GLP-1 bioavailability remains an active area of clinical debate
Graded #322 · C
Strengths
- Compounded GLP-1 (semaglutide/tirzepatide) weight-loss program with licensed clinicians included
- LegitScript-certified and HIPAA-compliant; works with 503A/503B licensed US pharmacies
- Longevity and peptide protocols alongside weight loss; free membership, no monthly fee
- Discreet nationwide shipping with 24/365 support
- Also a turnkey white-label platform for clinics and wellness brands to launch programs
Where it loses points
- Exact dosing and pricing are shown only after completing the patient assessment
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved finished products
- States served are not publicly listed
- Part B2B/white-label, so the consumer experience can vary by partnered clinic
