Graded #281 · C
Strengths
- One flat $199/month price covering medication, provider review and shipping, with no consultation fee and no dose-change surcharge
- Charges nothing if a provider does not approve you
- Offers a deliberate low-dose microdosing protocol aimed at body composition, which most competitors do not break out
- Publishes a named legal entity, a US mailing address and a working phone number
- Pre-screening quiz is short and asks your goal before any medical question
Where it loses points
- Cancellation terms contradict three ways: the homepage says cancel anytime, the Terms say 48 hours notice, the FAQ says 30 days
- Availability is unclear: the homepage counter reads 3 states while the treatment pages say telehealth nationwide, and no state list is published
- Its chart cites placebo-controlled trials of compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, which do not exist; those trials studied the branded drugs
- No compounding pharmacy is named, and neither 503A nor 503B appears anywhere on the site
- Any returned prescription is charged a $35 disposal fee, and prescription orders cannot be cancelled at all after 24 hours
Graded #61 · C
Strengths
- Compounded semaglutide from $149/mo and tirzepatide from $199/mo, plus a $129/mo microdose option
- Flat pricing — the same monthly cost at every dose as you titrate up
- All-inclusive: medication, unlimited 24/7 provider messaging, and free shipping bundled in
- Names its compounding pharmacy — Strive Pharmacy (licensed 503A)
- Available in all 50 states with same-day approvals
Where it loses points
- Operates as a technology platform, not the medical provider itself
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved (the site discloses this honestly)
- Aggressive marketing results claims (e.g. '18% average', '93% kept it off') with 'results not typical' disclaimers
- Legal entity name not published (footer shows only 'Zera Health')
