The comparison in brief

Both score 74/100 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.

Aspen

Shoppers who want one flat price whether they end up on semaglutide or tirzepatide, and who can commit to 3 months.

Reasons to consider it

  • One transparent, dose-independent flat price ($179/mo) covers either the semaglutide or tirzepatide path, avoiding the tirzepatide surcharge most compounded competitors charge
  • Price stated to be all-in: provider consultation, custom dosing, medication, and free delivery bundled with no listed add-on fees
  • No insurance required, cash-pay simplicity

What to weigh up

  • The bold '$179/mo' headline omits its own fine-print condition — a 3-month commitment — visible only in small text directly beneath the price
  • Almost nothing else is disclosed: no states-served list, no named medical director or prescriber, no named pharmacy and no LegitScript certification
  • Most of the site is gated behind an 'eligibility check' funnel with no way to see program details before starting intake

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

Nu Image Medical

Shoppers comfortable choosing a multi-month compounded injection or rapid-dissolve-tablet supply after a provider review.

Reasons to consider it

  • Publishes the identity of all four fulfillment pharmacies in its terms (Absolute Pharmacy LLC, Belmar Pharma Solutions, The Pharmacy Hub, TMC Acquisition dba Tailor Made Compounding) rather than staying anonymous about who compounds the medication
  • LegitScript certified with a visible certificate number (453964)
  • Both injectable and rapid-dissolve-tablet (RDT) formulations available for both semaglutide and tirzepatide

What to weigh up

  • The advertised injection rate is tied to a six-month supply, not a confirmed month-to-month plan
  • Your prescribed dose and chosen supply determine the final quote
  • Prescriptions are non-refundable, with a separate limited exception for eligible WAYT-less patients

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