The verdict

HealthSource takes it — 71.2/100 to 67.2/100.

HealthSource grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. HealthSource is a telehealth weight-management platform offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide (injectable and oral sublingual) dispensed through a US-based FDA 503A licensed partner pharmacy.

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.

HealthSource

Graded #96 · C

Strengths

  • Three GLP-1 options: compounded semaglutide injection, tirzepatide injection, and oral sublingual tirzepatide
  • 24/7 access to care team via HIPAA-compliant platform with unlimited physician messaging
  • Every program covers the cost of medication, supplies, and telehealth visits — no separate pharmacy fee
  • Subscription auto-refund if monthly reassessment is not completed
  • Available in all 50 US states including Alaska and Hawaii with 3–5 day shipping

Where it loses points

  • No physician names or clinical leadership disclosed on public pages
  • No LegitScript certification found
  • 503A partner pharmacy not named — less transparent than providers disclosing their 503B pharmacy
  • Labs not mentioned on any product page — baseline bloodwork protocol unknown
  • WooCommerce e-commerce storefront may feel more transactional than clinical
LillyDirect Foundayo

Graded #165 · C

Strengths

  • Cheapest legal path to a brand-name GLP-1 in 2026 ($25/mo with savings card for commercial insurance)
  • Direct from manufacturer — no compounding, no third-party reseller
  • Daily oral pill, no injections, no refrigeration
  • Available in all 50 states

Where it loses points

  • Lower mean weight loss vs Wegovy (14.9%) and Zepbound (20.9%) — labeled-dose 11.1% per Foundayo PI
  • Requires existing prescription from a separate prescriber (LillyDirect does not write the prescription)
  • $25 savings card requires commercial insurance — Medicare and Medicaid not eligible
  • Strict empty-stomach 30-minute window may be hard for some patients to follow
