Blue Haven RX
61/100Where the value is
- Claims flat, dose-independent pricing ('no price increases' regardless of dose)
- Routes to established physician networks (Wasef Health, Beluga Health) rather than an unknown in-house provider
- Payments held until doctor approval, per site copy, reducing risk of paying for a declined prescription
The tradeoffs
- Internal pricing contradiction: homepage says tirzepatide is $179/month, FAQ says $259/month
- No named medical director
NuDay Rx
61/100Where the value is
- Named compounding pharmacy (Belmar Pharmacy) and named prescriber network (Beluga Health) — both independently verifiable
- LegitScript verification badge displayed on-site
- Both injectable and oral-tablet forms available for semaglutide and tirzepatide, plus a full brand-name menu on the same account
The tradeoffs
- Compounded semaglutide ($249) and tirzepatide ($329) are priced above several budget competitors in this comparison set
- Oral tirzepatide tablets ($399/mo) cost more than the injectable compound form ($329/mo) — a naive assumption that oral is cheaper or equivalent would be wrong here
