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
MadeMed
Not the cheapest, but the most honest about what a titrated dose actually costs.
Why it's a deal
- One flat price at every dose, published dose by dose — semaglutide 0.25–2.4mg, tirzepatide 2.5–15mg
- LegitScript verified, with board-certified physician review
- Full refund minus a $39 visit fee if you are not prescribed, stated before checkout
- Oral routes for both molecules, free overnight shipping with supplies included
The fine print
- The most expensive tirzepatide here at $399/mo quarterly
- 40 states rather than nationwide
- Ships one vial every two months, a less flexible cadence than a monthly refill
