Metabolyz

Graded #339 · C

Strengths

  • Three GLP-1 programs: standard semaglutide, dual-agonist tirzepatide, and a microdose protocol for near-goal or dose-sensitive patients
  • Nutrition, movement, and lifestyle coaching included in all programs at no extra charge
  • Medication compounded in licensed 503A/503B US pharmacies with temperature-controlled, unmarked direct-to-door delivery
  • Licensed provider supervision with direct messaging access and structured check-ins throughout
  • Telehealth across all 50 states; BMI 27+ eligibility (25+ with weight-related condition)

Where it loses points

  • Pricing is fully gated — not disclosed until after consultation, preventing upfront cost comparison
  • Compounded GLP-1 only — no brand-name options (Wegovy, Zepbound) available
  • No LegitScript certification or named medical leadership found on public-facing pages
  • Labs not mentioned as included — unclear whether baseline or follow-up bloodwork is offered
  • Newer brand with no external reviews, published outcomes data, or notable accreditations
Risen Labs

Graded #403 · C

Strengths

  • Names its compounding pharmacy (Olympia Pharmacy, a 503A compounding pharmacy) and legal entity (Risen Labs LLC)
  • Offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as clinician-guided once-weekly injections
  • Focused clinical intake covering weight loss, men's health, and hormone protocols

Where it loses points

  • GLP-1 pricing is not published; it appears only after you complete the clinical intake
  • Available only to patients in New York and Colorado
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
  • No LegitScript certification is displayed on the site
