Ro vs Sesame Care
By GLP-1 ScorecardUpdated
Score comparison
Sesame Care has the higher recorded score — 87.8/100 to 80.2/100.
Sesame Care grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Choose a provider for Wegovy, Zepbound and oral GLP-1 options through Sesame; care and medication are billed separately, and the annual care headline needs comparison with the shorter plan.

Site position #38 · B−
Strengths
- Brand-name access + insurance support
- Oral options
- Current pricing separates membership from medication charges
What to consider
- Membership starts at $39 for the first month, then $74–149 per month depending on term; the $74 rate requires annual prepayment
- Medication is extra; the total depends on the selected drug and payment arrangement
- Membership cancellation requires at least 48 hours before renewal; paid membership fees are described as nonrefundable
Site position #2 · B+
Strengths
- Provider choice with advertised video visits, follow-ups and continuing messaging
- Branded injection and oral options are described, subject to prescribing, dose, insurance and pharmacy availability
- Quest lab costs are included except in nine named states; alternative lab coverage requires confirmation
- The current semaglutide page explicitly distinguishes branded products from compounded semaglutide, which it says is currently unavailable
What to consider
- The $59 care headline requires an annual subscription and excludes medication; provider-specific care rates may be higher
- Ordinary care is called monthly but also billed every 28 days; longer-term savings arithmetic needs confirmation
- Program refund wording differs from newer terms describing multi-month repricing and a 48-hour renewal notice
- Drug prices depend on dose and promotion; official KwikPen and Foundayo displays contain discrepancies
- The selected clinician, medical practice and dispensing pharmacy were not established by this review
