Graded #338 · C
Strengths
- Both molecules are priced on one page, each quoted as medication and programme charge included rather than as a bare drug price
- A six-month commitment brings tirzepatide down to $133/mo, and the term is published rather than hidden
- The first month of the membership is free
Where it loses points
- A $75/mo membership is marketed as a separate product, and whether it is charged on top of the $149 medication rate is not stated anywhere we could find
- The $133/mo tirzepatide rate advertised on the homepage requires a six-month commitment; the month-to-month rate is $224
- Both figures are 'starting at' rates, so the cost of a titrated dose is not published
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
Graded #437 · C
Strengths
- Physician-founded (Paul Rivas MD) with 15 clinics plus telehealth
- Flat price for any dose; weekly provider visits included in every payment
- Offers both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide
Where it loses points
- Expensive: about $498/mo for semaglutide and $715/mo for tirzepatide (billed weekly)
- Only available in Maryland, Virginia, and Florida
- Weekly-visit concierge model requires more frequent engagement than mail-order
