The verdict

MadeMed takes it — 80.4/100 to 66.9/100.

MadeMed grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Publishes its price at every single dose, so what a titrated dose costs is knowable on day one.

We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.

MadeMed

Graded #30 · B−

Strengths

  • One flat price at every dose, published dose by dose — semaglutide 0.25–2.4mg, tirzepatide 2.5–15mg
  • LegitScript verified, with board-certified physician review and US compounding pharmacies
  • Full refund minus a $39 visit fee if you are not prescribed, stated before checkout
  • Oral semaglutide and oral tirzepatide alongside the injections; free overnight shipping with supplies

Where it loses points

  • The most expensive tirzepatide here at $399/mo quarterly
  • 40 states rather than nationwide
  • No published recurring lab programme
  • Ships one vial every two months, a less flexible cadence than a monthly refill
Nova MD

Graded #174 · C

Strengths

  • On-page pricing published for all four SKUs (semaglutide and tirzepatide, 1- and 3-month)
  • $125/mo semaglutide and $199/mo tirzepatide 3-month plans rank among the cheapest in the market
  • $50 off first tirzepatide order shown publicly
  • Explicit microdose / low-dose program for both semaglutide and tirzepatide
  • Broader menu (sermorelin, NAD+, glutathione, enclomiphene) for longevity alongside GLP-1

Where it loses points

  • Legal entity name and state of incorporation not disclosed
  • Compounding pharmacy not named — only 'accredited facilities'
  • LegitScript certification not confirmed (only 'Licensed US Providers' claims)
  • Per-state availability not listed
  • Compounded only — no brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, or Ozempic
