The verdict

FMmeds takes it — 63.2/100 to 56.1/100.

FMmeds grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. FMmeds is a Manhattan Beach-based DTC telehealth platform selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide co-formulated with vitamin B12, with no membership fee and a free initial visit billed only on approval.

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.

FMmeds

Graded #260 · C

Strengths

  • All 50 states plus DC covered, stated in the Terms
  • Operating LLC and full Manhattan Beach, CA address disclosed
  • Named 503A pharmacy partner (Manifest Pharmacy, Greer SC)
  • Aggressive 12-month pricing — semaglutide $95/mo and tirzepatide $145/mo, at the low end of the market
  • Flat pricing across all dose strengths — no dose-escalation surcharge

Where it loses points

  • Compounded only — no FDA-approved Wegovy, Ozempic, Mounjaro, or Zepbound
  • Publishes the FDA compounded-medication disclaimer (medication is not FDA-approved)
  • Clinical network not separately named
  • LegitScript Certified, but the specific ID isn't shown
  • FDA has issued this company a warning letter; the letter is public in FDA's warning-letter database
MD Trim Clinic

Graded #422 · C

Strengths

  • Physician DO + NP team (Dr. Brandon Shaw, D.O. and Andrea Farris, N.P.) provides strong clinical oversight
  • Compounded meds from LegitScript-certified pharmacies — higher supply-chain trust than many small practices
  • Tiered dosing structure (Level 1 / Level 2) with B12 added to reduce nausea side effects
  • Both telehealth and in-person options available (AZ Phoenix and CA Novato offices)
  • Partnered mobile IV services available for enhanced nausea management and hydration support

Where it loses points

  • Pricing not disclosed publicly — must contact clinic for quotes, limiting upfront comparison shopping
  • Only AZ and CA confirmed — very limited geographic reach, excludes nearly all of the US
  • No LegitScript certification for the clinic itself (only pharmacy partners are LegitScript-certified)
  • Small practice with limited online presence and no published patient reviews or outcomes data
  • No labs, coaching, or monitoring protocols disclosed on the site

Also worth a look
