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
Emerge Weight Loss
Emerge Weight Loss is a nationwide telehealth platform focused specifically on compounded tirzepatide for medical weight management.
Why it's a deal
- Tirzepatide-focused (largest effect-size compounded GLP-1)
- Wide dose range available
- Physician-supervised telemedicine model
The fine print
- Semaglutide is available only on request — the site and default plans are tirzepatide-only
- Less brand recognition than Henry Meds, Mochi, or SkinnyRx
