Bayan Health

Cost-first shoppers who want a flat all-dose price across several routes and can commit to a two- or three-month protocol.

Reasons to consider it

  • Among the lowest published flat rates for either molecule, with the medication, the physician consultation and expedited shipping inside the figure
  • "Same Flat Price. No Matter the Dose." is stated on the product pages, so the cost does not climb as a provider titrates
  • Lists standard and lower-dose injections for both molecules, plus compounded orforglipron tablets at $269 a month

What to weigh up

  • Weight-management programs require a ninety-day commitment, billed monthly; receiving several months at once creates an obligation to pay for that dispensed protocol
  • Opting out requires at least fifteen days notice before the next protocol cycle
  • Consultation fees are generally non-refundable after clinical review, and medication may be non-refundable after prescribing or processing

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

Nova

Readers who want the membership inside the quoted price rather than added to it, and who want a daily sublingual option beside the injection.

Reasons to consider it

  • Quotes one all-in figure that already contains the $50 monthly membership, the medication and refrigerated shipping, so the membership is not a surprise at checkout
  • Names a medical director and a nurse practitioner with credentials, training and residency detail
  • Prices a daily sublingual route for both molecules alongside the weekly injections

What to weigh up

  • Every figure is a "From" price that depends on the dose your provider prescribes, and no maintenance-dose price is published
  • No compounding pharmacy and no medical group is named
  • "You're only charged if prescribed" sits against a refund policy making membership and consultation fees non-refundable once the clinical review is done, even when a provider declines

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