Factor by factor
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
EdgeRx
A men's-only protocol shop with flat, disclosed GLP-1 pricing, a named Chief Medical Advisor, and a named 503A compounding pharmacy — rare transparency for this tier of the board.
Why it's a deal
- Both molecules disclosed up front — semaglutide $229/mo, tirzepatide $299/mo, both once-weekly injectable with free shipping and no separate physician fee
- Named compounding pharmacy — Strive Pharmacy, 503A, operating since 2018 — most peers name none
- Named Chief Medical Advisor, Dr. John Starke, MD (ABEM board-certified)
- LegitScript certified
The fine print
- Men-only — not built for, or marketed to, women or other readers
- The named Chief Medical Advisor does not personally prescribe; the actual prescribing pool is unnamed licensed physicians
- Third-party lab testing is claimed but no specific lab is named
- Excludes Arkansas, Indiana, Minnesota, and South Carolina
