The verdict

Silhouette MD takes it — 69.4/100 to 55.2/100.

Silhouette MD grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Concierge-style GLP-1 telehealth offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in both injectable and oral forms, with provider oversight and full-service support included on every plan.

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.

NovoCare Pharmacy

Graded #442 · C

Strengths

  • First-party Novo Nordisk pharmacy — the most authoritative branded Wegovy channel
  • $199/mo intro pricing on Wegovy 0.25/0.5 mg starter doses (through 6/30/2026), the lowest brand self-pay price
  • $349/mo standard self-pay is well below the ~$1,300/mo retail list price
  • Ships to all 50 states with no telehealth-platform middleman fees
  • Cold-chain logistics handled directly by Novo Nordisk

Where it loses points

  • Wegovy only — no Ozempic, no tirzepatide, no compounded GLP-1
  • Requires an existing Wegovy prescription — no prescribing clinicians or telehealth intake
  • No clinical support included — your own prescriber handles titration and side effects
  • Manufacturer-set pricing can change at any time
  • $199 pen intro covers only the first 2 fills for new patients (through 6/30/2026); maintenance doses are $349/mo ($399 HD)
Silhouette MD

Graded #123 · C

Strengths

  • Concierge-level support — monitoring, expert guidance, and check-ins included on every plan
  • Transparent, published pricing starting at $149/mo for semaglutide injection
  • Prescriptions issued and fulfilled by licensed clinical partner OpenLoop Health

Where it loses points

  • Tirzepatide ($299/mo) and oral options ($263–$325/mo) priced above many compounded competitors
  • State availability not published
  • Newer brand with limited independent review history
  • Medications are compounded, not FDA-approved brand-name
