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
TeleCareSpot
TeleCareSpot is a telehealth weight-loss platform offering doctor-prescribed compounded GLP-1s with flat, all-inclusive monthly pricing: compounded semaglutide at $299/month and tirzepatide at $399/month…
Why it's a deal
- Flat, all-inclusive monthly pricing with no hidden fees — compounded semaglutide $299/month and tirzepatide $399/month, all doses included
- Verifiable LegitScript certification (seal ID 45936855) plus HIPAA compliance and licensed US physicians
- Multiple options: compounded semaglutide, tirzepatide, oral tirzepatide, and phentermine
- DNA-calibrated dosing option that tailors the GLP-1 dose to how you metabolize it
- Broad coverage in 47 states and DC, with free shipping and cancel-anytime plans
The fine print
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved — not brand Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, or Mounjaro
- Not available in Alaska, Mississippi, or New Jersey
- The compounding pharmacy partner is not named
- A separate weight-loss consultation fee applies (credited toward your medication package if approved)
- Trustpilot rating and review counts (4.9, 14,000+) are self-stated on the site
