Graded #299 · C
Strengths
- Pairs GLP-1 with muscle-protective peptides (e.g., CJC-1295/Ipamorelin, NAD+) to defend lean mass during fat loss
- Structured, physician-directed off-ramp taper with GI-reset support instead of an indefinite prescription
- Bilingual care in English and Spanish across intake, messaging, and consults
- Care directed through a named independent medical group (CareNexus Clinic PC); $0 charged if you are not approved
- Published clinical support hours (Mon–Fri, CT) with phone, email, and secure messaging; cancel anytime
Where it loses points
- Only a "from $199/mo" starting price is published; tirzepatide and per-tier pricing are confirmed only after a provider review
- Compounding pharmacy partners are not named on the site — a transparency gap
- No LegitScript or PCAB verification is displayed
- States served are not published; the site claims "telehealth nationwide" but the Terms limit service to states where LunaRx is licensed
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved (the site discloses this)
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
