Save ~89% vs brand-nameThe verdict
Precision Telemed takes it on Value Score, 89 to 87 — an est. $149/mo first month, with no teaser step-up baked in. Sesame Care isn't out of it: Shoppers who want genuine FDA-approved brand-name GLP-1s and the ability to pick their own provider and see the price up front, rather than one fixed compounded program.

Precision Telemed
A LegitScript-certified, all-50-state program with an honest $149 / $199 flat price on both molecules.
Why it's a deal
- LegitScript-certified and available in all 50 states
- Flat $149 semaglutide / $199 tirzepatide — no step-up
- Both molecules priced up front
The fine print
- Not the rock-bottom sticker — sub-$100 sema tiers exist
- No brand-name or oral option
Sesame Care
An established national telehealth marketplace with the widest real brand-name GLP-1 access on the board — Wegovy (pen and pill), Zepbound, Ozempic and Mounjaro — plus provider-by-provider price transparency.
Why it's a deal
- Real FDA-approved brand-name access — Wegovy pen and pill, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro and Rybelsus
- Established platform (operating since 2018) with LegitScript, BBB accreditation and large third-party review volume
- You choose the provider and see the price up front — genuine marketplace transparency
- Oral routes available (Wegovy pill, Rybelsus)
The fine print
- A generalist marketplace, not a dedicated weight-loss program — lighter ongoing hand-holding than a specialist desk
- Two-part cost (a platform subscription plus the medication) makes the true monthly total harder to compare
- Brand-name cash prices can run high without insurance
