Factor by factor
The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
Mint Med
Low flat pricing — $117 sema, $159 tirz — from a LegitScript-certified pharmacy across 36 states.
Why it's a deal
- Low $117 semaglutide and a cheap $159 tirzepatide
- LegitScript-certified pharmacy
- Flat pricing on both molecules
The fine print
- Covers 36 states, not the full 50
- Compounded only — no brand-name or oral route
Trillium Meds
Trillium Meds is a small, owner-operated telehealth platform based in Portland, OR that connects patients with independent licensed providers and FDA-registered compounding pharmacies for compounded…
Why it's a deal
- LegitScript certified with an active seal; serves all 50 states plus Puerto Rico with no geographic restrictions
- All-inclusive pricing covers medication, provider consultation, and shipping with no hidden fees or add-ons
- Two pharmacy options (BPI Labs with B6, ProRx) and three plan structures: 1-month, 3-month fixed, or 3-month titrated
- Small owner-operated; founder personally handles customer support outside business hours for direct, responsive service
- Klarna and Affirm financing available; pause anytime with no long-term commitment required
The fine print
- No labs, coaching, or clinical monitoring included — telehealth Rx and pharmacy fulfillment only
- Small single-operator platform may limit capacity and support consistency as patient volume grows
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved; newer platform with limited long-term public track record
- Tirzepatide from $199/mo (3-mo plan) is mid-market; sema from $119/mo competitive but not lowest available
- No live video consult disclosed; async intake-form-based provider review by external licensed provider network
