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
TeleClinic

Why it's a deal

- LegitScript certified with flat, published monthly pricing, free shipping, and no insurance required
- Broad access: 47 states with US-licensed physicians and transparent cash-pay pricing
The fine print
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only — no brand-name GLP-1 (Wegovy or Zepbound) option

- Not available in California, South Carolina, or New Jersey
