Care Clinics
Cheap on both molecules — $100 sema, $133 tirz — from a LegitScript-certified pharmacy across 32 states.
Why it's a deal
- Low $100 semaglutide and a class-cheap $133 tirzepatide
- LegitScript-certified pharmacy
- Both molecules priced up front — no teaser step-up
The fine print
- Covers 32 states, not the full 50
- Compounded only — no brand-name or oral route
Cora Health
Cora Health is a direct-to-consumer telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide ($99–$175/mo) and tirzepatide ($135–$225/mo) with flat per-tier pricing — no surcharge as your dose escalates.
Why it's a deal
- Two named 503A compounding pharmacy partners disclosed on first-party pages (Hallandale Pharmacy + VialsRx)
- Hallandale Pharmacy is PCAB-accredited and operating since 2003 (independently verified)
- LegitScript Certified (seal ID 49690100 in footer)
- Flat per-tier pricing — no dose-escalation surcharge
- Annual commitment delivers $99/mo semaglutide and $135/mo tirzepatide
The fine print
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved and not therapeutically equivalent to Wegovy/Zepbound
- Leanio Health LLC has zero independent operating-history footprint (no BBB, no press, likely <12 months old)
- Lowest advertised prices require 12-month commitment with no partial refunds
- No brand-name Wegovy/Zepbound or oral GLP-1 (orforglipron/Rybelsus) options
- Founder names and funding undisclosed on site
