Factor by factor
The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
Ondra Health
The cheapest flat semaglutide sticker we track ($93) — LegitScript-certified, all 50 states, and it still offers brand-name access.
Why it's a deal
- Lowest disclosed flat semaglutide price in the roster ($93/mo) — no teaser step-up
- LegitScript-certified and available in all 50 states
- Offers FDA-approved brand-name access alongside compounded
- Tirzepatide is competitive too at $166/mo
The fine print
- Newer name with a shorter public track record than the established flat-fee brands
- No oral/sublingual route for the needle-averse
Better U Care
Better U Care is a US telehealth weight-loss practice offering compounded and brand-name GLP-1 medications with transparent self-pay pricing and no insurance required.
Why it's a deal

- Offers both compounded and brand-name semaglutide and tirzepatide
- Uniform compounded pricing across all doses with supplies included
