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
NexLife
NexLife is a LegitScript-certified telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide (from $145/mo) and compounded tirzepatide (from $186/mo).
Why it's a deal
- LegitScript certified platform
- Works exclusively with LegitScript-certified, NABP-accredited pharmacies — strongest pharmacy trust signal in the dataset
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide at competitive pricing
- Semaglutide from $145/mo on the 12-month plan ($165/mo month-to-month) - among the lowest in the dataset
The fine print
- State availability not publicly disclosed
- Compounded only — no brand-name options
- Also covers hormone optimization and longevity
- Lowest advertised rates ($145 sema / $186 tirz) require a 12-month plan commitment
