Strut Health vs Vita Bella
The verdict
Strut Health takes it — 82/100 to 64.9/100.
Strut Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. The same molecule as a lozenge or an injection at the same price — the one place here where the needle is genuinely optional.
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 #21 · B−
Strengths
- Sublingual lozenges for both molecules at the same price as the injection — semaglutide from $99/mo, tirzepatide from $199/mo
- Every route and auto-refill saving published on the product page rather than inside an intake
- Free physician visit, free shipping and free follow-up care included
- Cancel, pause or delay yourself with 48 hours' notice
Where it loses points
- Asynchronous by design — some states need no phone consultation, so you may never speak to the prescriber
- No published lab or monitoring programme
- Compounded only, with no brand-name lane
- Not available in Arkansas
Graded #238 · C
Strengths
- Offers both compounded semaglutide (from $109/mo) and tirzepatide (from $159/mo) at member pricing, with supplies and a B-6 add-in included
- Genuine LegitScript-certified website (seal #4395819) and a clearly disclosed legal entity, Vita Bella Health, LLC (Nevada)
- Broad access: care published for 46 states plus Washington, D.C., and HSA cards are accepted
- Fully remote telehealth with video provider consults and quarterly provider check-ins included in the membership
- Medications dispensed by US FDA-inspected compounding pharmacies; ondansetron for nausea provided at no extra charge
Where it loses points
- Advertised $109-$159 medication prices require a separate $129/mo membership plus a one-time $99 consult, pushing true cost to ~$238-288/mo
- Three-month minimum commitment before it renews month-to-month; no refunds on medications and all sales are final
- Compounding pharmacy partners are not named anywhere on the site — a transparency gap
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved; only the dispensing pharmacies are described as FDA-inspected
- Disputes are subject to binding arbitration with a class-action waiver, governed by Nevada law (Las Vegas jurisdiction)
