Trimi Health takes it on Value Score, 89 to 82 — an est. $99/mo first month, with no teaser step-up baked in. Direct Meds isn't out of it: Needle-averse shoppers who want a sublingual option on both molecules and will do their own diligence on a newer, ambiguous operator.

Factor by factor
The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
Trimi Health
The ultra-budget pick: two-digit semaglutide and a $125 tirzepatide — one of the lowest flat tirz stickers on the whole board — shipped to all 50 states.
Why it's a deal
- Ultra-budget on both molecules — $99 semaglutide and a class-low $125 tirzepatide, flat with no teaser step-up
- Tirzepatide at $125/mo undercuts most of the flat-fee field on the priciest molecule
- Nationwide 50-state reach, so the low price isn't gated to a handful of states
The fine print
- Not LegitScript-certified — do your own pharmacy diligence before you buy on price alone
- Compounded injectable only — no FDA-approved brand-name or oral/sublingual route
- Newer brand with a thin public track record
Direct Meds
One of the few programs offering an oral/sublingual GLP-1 alongside injectable, all-inclusive with no separate membership — priced well, but on company-stated numbers we couldn't independently verify.
Why it's a deal
- Rare oral/sublingual route offered alongside injectable on both molecules
- All-inclusive pricing with no separate membership fee
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide available, sublingual or injectable
The fine print
- Compounded only (launched 2024) — not FDA-approved
- Prices are company-stated and could not be verified live; a promo rate blurs the ongoing price
- Newer, ambiguous operator running multiple domains — do your own diligence
- States served are not publicly listed
