Graded #221 · C
Strengths
- Both compounded and full brand-name menu (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound) on one platform
- Pharmacy partner named publicly: Jungle Jim's Pharmacy (F&F Pharmacies Inc.), Fairfield, OH
- Clinical lead named publicly: Dr. Jonah Mink, Beluga Health
- Compounded semaglutide from $147.90/mo on the 3-month plan ($174/mo billed monthly) — lower end of the segment
Where it loses points
- Not available in several states including CA, NV, NJ, NC, TX, MA — verify your state first
- Brand-name first-month pricing of $1,199.99–$1,299.99 is at or above cash retail; value is on the compounded tier
- Footer references 'Sunshine Health Studios Inc.' — relationship to the domain owner is unclear
Graded #75 · C
Strengths
- Publicly lists $199/mo compounded semaglutide and $249/mo compounded tirzepatide
- Brand-name options too — Wegovy injection and pill, Zepbound, Foundayo from $149/mo entry pricing
- LegitScript verified
- Clearly identifies itself as the intake platform and a licensed third-party pharmacy as the dispenser
- Broad longevity menu (Sermorelin, NAD+, Glutathione) plus TRT, hair, skin, and sexual health
Where it loses points
- Legal entity name and state of incorporation not publicly disclosed
- The third-party pharmacy partner isn't named, and Kin Meds isn't itself a licensed pharmacy
- Per-state availability not listed
- $149/mo brand pricing is the insured entry tier — cash-pay patients should expect higher real costs
- Lab work and dose-titration support not clearly described
