Sesame Care vs Vea Health
The verdict
Sesame Care takes it — 87.8/100 to 55/100.
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 #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
Graded #451 · C
Strengths
- Publishes the FDA compounded-medication disclaimer
- Oral and injection protocols for both semaglutide and tirzepatide
- Claims 50-state coverage via a clinician network
- Clearly differentiated positioning (longevity, men's health, performance)
Where it loses points
- Pricing not shown until after sign-up
- Pharmacy partner not named (only 'U.S.-based pharmacy')
- LegitScript certification status not visible
- No named medical director
- 503A vs 503B designation not specified
