The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
Gimme Care
Genuinely cheap on both molecules ($130 / $163) with a LegitScript-certified pharmacy and all-50-state reach.
Why it's a deal
- Low flat price on both molecules ($130 sema / $163 tirz)
- LegitScript-certified pharmacy
- Available in all 50 states
The fine print
- No brand-name option — compounded only
- No oral/sublingual form
Contour Health
Contour Health (Desert Contour LLC) is a Utah-based telehealth provider offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide through a named 503A pharmacy partner, Strive Pharmacy.
Why it's a deal
- Free medical consultation — no charge to talk with a provider before starting
- Pay-per-vial pricing with no long-term subscription commitment required to participate
- Names its compounding pharmacy partner (Strive Pharmacy, 503A accredited) — a real transparency signal
- LegitScript badge links to a genuine, working LegitScript verification checker for the domain
- Board-certified Medical Director and named nurse-practitioner care team, not anonymous providers
The fine print
- State availability list is not published — Terms of Service only says "certain states"
- All product purchases are non-refundable per Terms of Service
- Compounded injectable only — no oral option, no brand-name Wegovy/Zepbound/Ozempic/Mounjaro
- Terms of Service also describe an optional subscription tier with a 3-month minimum, despite marketing emphasizing "no subscriptions"
- No insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid accepted — cash-pay or HSA/FSA only
