LillyDirect Foundayo vs Tonik Wellness
The verdict
Tonik Wellness takes it — 69/100 to 67.2/100, but only just.
Tonik Wellness grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Tonik Wellness (Tonik Wellness, LLC) offers compounded semaglutide ($149–$225/mo) and compounded tirzepatide ($229–$349/mo) with tiered monthly/quarterly/annual pricing. LillyDirect Foundayo is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
