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
Lumen Meds
Lumen Meds (lumenmeds.com) is a Delaware-incorporated compounded GLP-1 telehealth platform (Lumen Meds LLC, 128 Sunset Blvd #1214, New Castle, DE 19720).
Why it's a deal
- LegitScript Certified
- Free expedited cold shipping — important for GLP-1 cold-chain integrity
- Lifestyle coaching included, not just medication dispensing
- Orders labs when needed
- Named legal entity (Lumen Meds LLC, Delaware) with a physical address
The fine print
- $0 first-month promo — verify recurring billing and cancellation terms before committing
- Standard ongoing semaglutide price not shown (only the first-month promo)
- Per-state availability not listed
- Pharmacy partners not named
- Health quiz required before you see final per-patient pricing
