Kin Meds

Graded #73 · 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
LifeMD

Graded #390 · C

Strengths

  • Telehealth convenience
  • Physician-supervised program

Where it loses points

  • Brand-name GLP-1 only — no lower-cost compounded option
  • Monthly program & provider fee ($149/mo, $75 first month) is separate from medication cost
