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
Graded #77 · C
Strengths
- Low starting pricing (about $80-$135/month) with no subscription lock-in
- Physician-led by a named MD, not automated messaging
- Third-party COA and LegitScript-certified pharmacy
- Both telehealth and in-person Utah visits with fast scheduling
Where it loses points
- Available in Utah only — a St George clinic offering telehealth within the state, not a national service
- The per-vial price is fixed, so the monthly cost rises steeply with the dose: the provider's own table runs about $20/mo at 0.25 mg, $80/mo at 1.0 mg and about $199/mo at 2.5 mg
- Medication is bought per vial up front rather than on a subscription, so there is no monthly rate to compare directly against a subscription programme
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
