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
Obu Health
Obu Health is a Las Vegas-based multi-product telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide from $190/month and compounded tirzepatide from $239/month, plus NAD+ and sermorelin add-ons.
Why it's a deal
- LegitScript-certified with publicly displayed ID (44206977)
- Two named 503A compounding-pharmacy partners (Manifest Pharmacy SC + RX Compounding Store FL) — transparency above category baseline
- Lower advertised semaglutide starting price ($190) than most multi-product peer platforms
- Multi-product offering (GLP-1s + NAD+ + sermorelin + generic ED + birth control) for single-platform users
- 24-hour US board-certified physician response window
The fine print
- Per-dose pricing tiers not transparently published on product pages — only 'starting from' prices visible
- No explicit state-coverage list disclosed; FAQ confirms restrictions exist 'based on state' without enumeration
- Medical director not named publicly
- No published consultation fee disclosure — unclear whether physician visit is included in medication price
- All sales final per FAQ ('Federal and State law do not allow medication returns')
