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
Modern Age
Modern Age is a longevity-focused health clinic that uses FDA-approved branded GLP-1 medication (semaglutide - Wegovy/Ozempic) within a structured Weight Loss Program.
Why it's a deal
- Uses FDA-approved branded GLP-1 medication (Wegovy/Ozempic), no compounding
- Comprehensive assessment with labs, at-home tests and clinician review
- Board-certified clinicians and structured 6-month program
- Longevity-oriented, whole-person approach beyond weight loss
The fine print
- Expensive: $500 assessment plus $500 program, with medication billed separately
- Branded GLP-1 can cost $900-1600/mo if not covered by insurance
- Only available in 16 states (specific states not listed publicly)
- Premium positioning makes it costlier than compounded-subscription rivals
