Factor by factor
The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
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
Lyfe Rx
Lyfe Rx offers compounded semaglutide ($289) and compounded tirzepatide ($399).
Why it's a deal
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide available
- Delivery to all 50 states with 1–3 day pharmacy turnaround
The fine print
- No visible LegitScript or PCAB accreditation
- Also sells non-prescription supplements ('Tirzepatide Weight Loss Supplement', 'Lipo Burn')
- Shopify-based e-commerce storefront — less clinical infrastructure
- FDA issued this company a warning letter dated 9 September 2025; the letter is public in FDA's warning-letter database
