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.

Avono Health

Readers comparing dose ranges and delivery formats who want medication, clinical review and shipping included in a published monthly price.

Reasons to consider it

  • Publishes prices for each treatment before intake
  • No separate membership fee, clinician fee or shipping charge
  • Both GLP-1 molecules offered in injectable and oral formats

What to weigh up

  • Microdose prices apply to a lower-dose program and are not equivalent to standard treatment doses
  • Compounded oral capsules and dissolving tablets are not FDA-approved products
  • The dispensing pharmacy and treatment-specific state coverage list are not published

LillyDirect Foundayo

Patients who want an FDA-approved, manufacturer-direct oral GLP-1 rather than a compounded injectable.

Reasons to consider it

  • First-party Eli Lilly program -- highest possible manufacturer authenticity
  • FDA-approved branded drug (orforglipron), not an unapproved compounded formulation
  • Published self-pay starting price ($149) via savings card

What to weigh up

  • Not semaglutide or tirzepatide -- a different molecule (orforglipron), so not directly comparable on this list
  • The $149 price is tied to a specific Savings Card program with its own terms, not an unconditional list price
  • No clarity on whether $149 is truly the ongoing monthly cost or could change
