Nouri vs Sesame Care
The verdict
Sesame Care takes it — 87.8/100 to 54.8/100.
Sesame Care grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. An established national telehealth marketplace with the widest real brand-name GLP-1 access on the board — Wegovy (pen and pill), Zepbound, Ozempic and Mounjaro — plus provider-by-provider price transparency.
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.

Graded #454 · C
Strengths
- Named clinical MSO partner (Wasef Health, PC; Michael Wasef, MD) with public contact email
- Named 503A compounding pharmacy partner (Jungle Jim's Pharmacy, Fairfield OH) with full address
- Available in all 50 states per the FAQ
- Flat per-dose pricing within each tier — no dose-escalation surcharge
- Nutrition and movement coaching included in the medication price
Where it loses points
- Compounded medications only — no FDA-approved Wegovy, Ozempic, Mounjaro, or Zepbound
- Operating entity name not disclosed in the Terms of Service
- Terms 'where we operate' language is slightly weaker than the FAQ's all-50-states claim
- Video visit required in some states, but those states aren't listed
- FDA has issued this company a warning letter; the letter is public in FDA's warning-letter database
Graded #2 · B+
Strengths
- Real FDA-approved brand-name access — Wegovy pen and pill, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro and Rybelsus
- Established platform (operating since 2018) with LegitScript, BBB accreditation and large third-party review volume
- You choose the provider and see the price up front — genuine marketplace transparency
- Oral routes available (Wegovy pill, Rybelsus)
Where it loses points
- A generalist marketplace, not a dedicated weight-loss program — lighter ongoing hand-holding than a specialist desk
- Two-part cost (a platform subscription plus the medication) makes the true monthly total harder to compare
- Brand-name cash prices can run high without insurance
Also worth a look
