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
Vita Bella
Vita Bella is a Nevada-based telehealth membership platform (Vita Bella Health, LLC) that offers compounded GLP-1 weight-loss medications alongside hormone therapy, peptides, sexual-wellness and anti-aging…
Why it's a deal
- Offers both compounded semaglutide (from $109/mo) and tirzepatide (from $159/mo) at member pricing, with supplies and a B-6 add-in included
- Genuine LegitScript-certified website (seal #4395819) and a clearly disclosed legal entity, Vita Bella Health, LLC (Nevada)
- Broad access: care published for 46 states plus Washington, D.C., and HSA cards are accepted
- Fully remote telehealth with video provider consults and quarterly provider check-ins included in the membership
- Medications dispensed by US FDA-inspected compounding pharmacies; ondansetron for nausea provided at no extra charge
The fine print
- Advertised $109-$159 medication prices require a separate $129/mo membership plus a one-time $99 consult, pushing true cost to ~$238-288/mo
- Three-month minimum commitment before it renews month-to-month; no refunds on medications and all sales are final
- Compounding pharmacy partners are not named anywhere on the site — a transparency gap
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved; only the dispensing pharmacies are described as FDA-inspected
- Disputes are subject to binding arbitration with a class-action waiver, governed by Nevada law (Las Vegas jurisdiction)
