The comparison in brief

Both score 84/100 on the Cost-Efficiency Index. There is no score winner; compare the treatment you need, billing terms and state availability.

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.

Alan Meds

Budget-first shoppers who want the lowest sema price plus an oral route nationwide.

Reasons to consider it

  • $99 semaglutide and $145 tirzepatide — among the cheapest disclosed prices we track
  • Nationwide all-50 access with an oral/sublingual option
  • Both molecules published for straightforward cost modeling

What to weigh up

  • Not LegitScript-certified — oversight harder to verify
  • Compounded only — no brand-name access

Regulatory note: the FDA issued a warning letter to Alan Health Technologies Inc. dba Alan in February 2026. We still list and link to Alan Meds; you should know the letter is on the public record before you decide.

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

Lean Meds

Cost-first shoppers who want a genuinely flat all-dose price and named pharmacies, and who will read the $49 headline as the annual plan it is.

Reasons to consider it

  • A flat rate at every dose on both molecules, stated as such, so the price does not climb as a provider titrates
  • Names all four pharmacies in its network with addresses, phone numbers and websites, and states the 503A designation in the footer of every page
  • The full four-rung ladder for each molecule is printed on one page, so a reader can see what a commitment actually saves

What to weigh up

  • The homepage sells "Starting at $49/mo — same price every month, first order and every order after"; $49 is the twelve-month semaglutide plan and the month-to-month rate is $79
  • A homepage chip reads "No auto rebill" while the terms say the payment method is automatically charged at recurring intervals until you cancel
  • Every offer page runs a countdown reading "Price increases in" with no dated deadline behind it

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