Nalena vs Navio MD
The verdict
Nalena takes it — 71.2/100 to 69.5/100, but only just.
Nalena grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Nalena is a women-focused, GLP-1-only telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide with medication included — no separate membership or visit fees. Navio MD is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #98 · C
Strengths
- Compounded GLP-1 from $149/mo with medication included — near the floor of the compounded market
- Transparent fee model: no hidden fees, no membership, cancel anytime
- Money-back guarantee — uncommon among compounded telehealths
- Clinical provider disclosed: Beluga Health, P.A. in Houston, TX
- Women-focused positioning
Where it loses points
- Per-dose pricing not published — only the 'starting at $149' entry price
- No LegitScript, HIPAA, or NABP badges on public pages
- Compounding pharmacy partners not named (only 'multiple USA certified pharmacies')
- Houston address looks like a virtual office rather than a clinical facility
- No brand-name GLP-1s (Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro) — compounded only
Graded #128 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript verified with board-certified providers and US-licensed pharmacies
- Both compounded and brand-name options
- 48-state coverage
- Hours 9am–10pm EST Mon–Sun
- Transparent tiered pricing: you only pay for your current dose
Where it loses points
- Not available in Alabama and Mississippi
- Compounded option is tirzepatide only — no compounded semaglutide listed
- Also offers women's HRT (broader platform)
- Pricing is tiered by dose ('as low as'); the entry prices climb as your dose increases
