Graded #381 · C
Strengths
- Public pricing across 3 SKUs (semaglutide $299, tirzepatide $359, oral GLP-1 $349) — uncommon in compounded telehealth
- First-month promo pricing shown upfront ($139 sema / $199 tirz / $189 oral)
- Single monthly price includes consult, prescription, 4 weeks of medication, and free 1–2 day shipping
- FSA/HSA eligible
- Three options under one roof: injectable sema, injectable tirz, and an oral GLP-1
Where it loses points
- Oral GLP-1 SKU doesn't name the specific drug — a real gap given Rybelsus, Foundayo, and compounded oral semaglutide differ clinically
- No LegitScript or NABP .pharmacy seal displayed
- No legal entity name disclosed
- No physical address disclosed
- Compounding pharmacy partner not named
Graded #40 · C+
Strengths
- Publishes standing per-dose self-pay prices for compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, oral and injectable
- Compounded semaglutide from $109/mo (oral) or $149/mo (injectable); brand Wegovy/Zepbound offered when appropriate
- Telehealth across seven states plus an in-person option at its Frisco, TX office
Where it loses points
- $149 initial evaluation and $75 follow-up visits are billed separately from medication
- Filled through your 'preferred pharmacy' — no single named compounding pharmacy partner
- No LegitScript certification displayed
