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
NexLife
NexLife is a LegitScript-certified telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide (from $145/mo) and compounded tirzepatide (from $186/mo).
Why it's a deal
- LegitScript certified platform
- Works exclusively with LegitScript-certified, NABP-accredited pharmacies — strongest pharmacy trust signal in the dataset
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide at competitive pricing
- Semaglutide from $145/mo on the 12-month plan ($165/mo month-to-month) - among the lowest in the dataset
The fine print
- State availability not publicly disclosed
- Compounded only — no brand-name options
- Also covers hormone optimization and longevity
- Lowest advertised rates ($145 sema / $186 tirz) require a 12-month plan commitment
