Factor by factor
The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
bmiMD
Sub-$100 semaglutide and a low $139 tirzepatide, flat and nationwide — a straight-up low-price play.
Why it's a deal
- $99 flat semaglutide and a low $139 tirzepatide
- Available in all 50 states
- Both molecules priced up front
The fine print
- Not LegitScript-certified — do your own pharmacy diligence
- Thin public track record; no oral or brand-name option
Primary Clinic (Direct GLP)
A 10-state direct-primary-care clinic selling GLP-1s at wholesale to its own members — cheap per milligram, but only on top of an $89/mo membership.
Why it's a deal
- Medication is billed at the clinic's wholesale cost with no markup, and the whole dose ladder is published rather than hidden behind intake
- The $89 membership also covers unlimited primary care, routine labs and prescription management, not GLP-1 care alone
The fine print
- The medication price sits on top of an $89/mo membership which the site's own FAQ states does NOT include the drug — about $174/mo all-in for semaglutide and $222/mo for tirzepatide
- Prices are published as dose BANDS and step up steeply as you titrate: semaglutide runs $85, $108, $145 then $183, so the entry figure is not what a maintenance dose costs
- The entire catalog renders only in JavaScript — the served HTML body is empty, so nothing is readable without running the site's bundle
- Only 10 states, small clinic, and not LegitScript-certified
