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

- Available in all 50 states

The fine print

Why it's a deal
- Competitive $299 tirzepatide — cheaper than most flat-fee rivals
- Offers oral/sublingual forms at a lower entry price
- Both molecules available
The fine print
- States-served list not disclosed
- Compounded only — no brand-name access
