Better U Care is a telehealth practice in 21 states that charges $150 for a clinical visit to prescribe brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro, filled at a pharmacy you choose, and still sells compounded semaglutide at $298 and tirzepatide at $397 a month at its checkout.
Best for: Shoppers in its 21 states who want a clinician to prescribe a brand-name GLP-1 to their own pharmacy, or a compounded plan with the visit included.
What Better U Care does well
- Brand-name prescriptions go to a pharmacy of your choice, so insurance can cover the drug
- Compounded plans include the medication and the provider consultation in one monthly price
- Publishes its list of 21 covered states rather than a vague 'most states' claim
Why readers look for an alternative
- Available in 21 states, not nationwide, and a second list on the same page shows only 18
- The $150 brand-name visit doesn't include the medication, and no drug price is published
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide aren't shown on its weight-loss page; the prices appear only at its checkout
- No compounding pharmacy is named and no LegitScript badge is shown
- Compounded pricing ($298-$397) is well above several nationwide competitors
