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

Why it's a deal
- Bundles compounded GLP-1 (semaglutide) with an FDA-cleared CGM and app — glucose-guided weight loss, not just medication
- Starting at $199/mo on a 6-month program, with the CGM included at no extra cost
- Free rapid shipping; HSA/FSA eligible
- Real-time glucose insights and app coaching to help sustain results after GLP-1
The fine print
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved finished products

- Only semaglutide is shown in the program; tirzepatide availability is not confirmed
- Compounding pharmacy partner and state availability are not published on the landing page
