Graded #227 · C
Strengths
- Compounded GLP-1 (semaglutide and tirzepatide) starting as low as $99/mo
- Names its compounding pharmacy partners (PerfectRx, The Pharmacy Hub, RX Compound Store) — uncommon transparency
- Free telehealth consult and free shipping; no membership or hidden fees
- Bi-weekly check-ins; operating since 2012
- Flexible monthly financing available at checkout
Where it loses points
- This is one physical clinic in Valdosta, Georgia, not a national telehealth service — nothing here is available to a reader outside Georgia
- The advertised 'as low as $99/month' is a semaglutide three-month starter pack ($299 paid up front), not a tirzepatide rate and not a monthly one
- Month-to-month rates are $199 semaglutide and $299 tirzepatide
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
