What Loop Health does well

- States plainly on its site that compounded drugs are not FDA-approved
Why readers look for an alternative
- Membership is free 'for now', with no word on what it will cost later
- Everything sold here is microdosed — the banner over both products reads 'MICRODOSED GLP-1', which is not a labeled therapeutic dose
- Coaching calls cost $149 each and bloodwork is billed at cost, on top of the medication
- Serves 44 states but doesn't list which ones
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
