The comparison in brief

Actin has the higher Cost-Efficiency Index: 67/100 versus 66/100. That is a value comparison under our published methodology, not a measure of medical suitability or a guarantee of results.

The better fit depends on what is included in your quote. A lower advertised price can require prepayment, apply to a starting dose or leave out a separate fee.

Actin

Shoppers who want compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide at a price shown before the questionnaire, with weight, hormone and longevity care on one account.

Reasons to consider it

  • Prices published on each product page before you start: semaglutide $169/mo month-to-month, tirzepatide $269/mo
  • No membership fee; supplies, dose adjustments and shipping are included
  • Names its pharmacies (The Pharmacy Hub, GreenwichRX, Hallandale Pharmacy) and its medical group (Beluga Health, P.A.)

What to weigh up

  • The 'starting at' prices ($116 and $166) are six-month plan rates
  • All compounded; no brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound
  • All sales are final and fees aren't refunded

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.

Factor Health MD

Shoppers who want one price at every dose and can commit to at least three months, with cheaper rates for 6- and 12-month plans.

Reasons to consider it

  • Every plan includes all doses at one flat rate with no per-mg increase, as its own FAQ states
  • LegitScript certified (badge displayed in the site footer)
  • Monthly-plan prices are low for the category: $99.99 for semaglutide and $189.99 for tirzepatide, with medication, supplies, visits and shipping included

What to weigh up

  • The 'from $79.99' banner is the 12-month plan, and the FAQ contradicts itself: one answer says there are no long-term commitments, another says subscription plans need an initial 3-month commitment and 14 days' notice to cancel
  • No compounding pharmacy is individually named, only a generic 'network of licensed, FDA-regulated pharmacies'
  • No named medical director or individual prescriber

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.
