The verdict

Tuyo Health takes it — 76.5/100 to 66.1/100.

Tuyo Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Tuyo Health (tuyohealth.com) is a US telehealth weight-loss program founded by Dr.

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.

NextMeds

Graded #208 · C

Strengths

  • Flat monthly membership bundles the medication, telehealth visits, a 1:1 care coach and a licensed registered dietitian — one price, no hidden fees
  • Same price every dose, no auto-renewal, cancel anytime; free shipping and no insurance needed (FSA eligible)
  • Names a compounding pharmacy partner (Foothills Pharmacy) and states it services all 50 states
  • Free, no-obligation online assessment before you pay anything

Where it loses points

  • Shows a LegitScript 'approval' but links only a generic directory search, not a verifiable seal — we couldn't independently confirm it
  • Promo-driven pricing with a countdown timer and 'price increases' urgency; the standing membership is $129 (sema) / $179 (tirz)
  • A technology platform that coordinates care, not the medical provider; individual clinicians and a medical director aren't named on the site
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only — no brand-name (Wegovy/Zepbound) options
  • Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-reviewed or approved — a different evidence and regulatory tier than brand-name
Tuyo Health

Graded #51 · C

Strengths

  • Low starting price of 155 dollars per month for compounded semaglutide, all-inclusive
  • Offers both compounded and brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound, with an insurance option
  • Free same-week shipping, complimentary consults and periodic lab work included

Where it loses points

  • Service-area states not published
  • No specific compounding pharmacy named on the site
  • Brand-name plans add a separate 99 dollar membership fee

Pricing/verification reflect each provider's public disclosures at last grading; the WeighScore is our editorial judgment per the methodology. Prices change — confirm on each provider's site. Not medical advice; see our disclosure.
