Factor by factor
The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
Alan Meds
Double-digit semaglutide ($99) and a $145 tirzepatide, both nationwide, with an oral route for the needle-shy.
Why it's a deal
- $99 flat semaglutide and a low $145 tirzepatide
- Available in all 50 states
- Offers an oral/sublingual route
The fine print
- Not LegitScript-certified — do your own pharmacy diligence
- Newer operator with a thin public track record
Green Cap Health
Green Cap Health is a Texas-only telehealth practice with a vertically integrated model: it is both the prescribing clinical practice and the in-house compounding pharmacy, so prescriptions are filled under…
Why it's a deal
- Vertically integrated — it is both the clinical practice and its own 503A Texas compounding pharmacy, a clear supply chain
- Aggressive $79 first-month intro pricing, competitive despite being Texas-only
- Texas patients can consolidate GLP-1, hair, skin, and sexual wellness under one practice
- Phone support published with a Houston area code
- Same-day provider review, faster than 24–48hr competitors
The fine print
- Texas only — patients in the other 49 states and DC can't use it
- No tirzepatide — semaglutide only, so those wanting the higher-magnitude option must look elsewhere
- LegitScript certification status not disclosed
- No named medical director — only "doctors, nurse practitioners, and pharmacists"
- FDA compounded-medication disclaimer not visible on the homepage
