Alan Meds
Double-digit semaglutide ($99) and a $145 tirzepatide, both nationwide, with an oral route for the needle-shy.

The fine print

- Newer operator with a thin public track record
Remote Pharmacy

- Low cash-pay pricing with no subscription or hidden fees
- Free doctor consultation and free shipping (you pay only for medication)
- Offers injectable and sublingual or tablet forms of both drugs

The fine print
