The comparison in brief

Alan Meds has the higher Cost-Efficiency Index: 84/100 versus 83/100. That is a value comparison under our published methodology, not a measure of medical suitability or a guarantee of results.

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.

Shoppers who will prepay to save: semaglutide drops to $119 a month on a 12-month plan, and tirzepatide to $179.

Reasons to consider it

  • Same price at every dose, with the provider visit included and free shipping on every subscription order
  • Every plan length is priced on the product page with its total, so you can see what a commitment saves before you start
  • Semaglutide is $149 on three months, $129 on six and $119 on twelve; tirzepatide is $229, $189 and $179

What to weigh up

  • The lowest prices need a 12-month plan paid up front, $1,428 for semaglutide or $2,148 for tirzepatide
  • On tirzepatide the three-month plan saves only $20 a month; the bigger cut starts at six months
  • The pharmacy that fills your order isn't named on the product pages

Alan Meds

Budget-first shoppers who want the lowest sema price plus an oral route nationwide.

Reasons to consider it

  • $99 semaglutide and $145 tirzepatide — among the cheapest disclosed prices we track
  • Nationwide all-50 access with an oral/sublingual option
  • Both molecules published for straightforward cost modeling

What to weigh up

  • Not LegitScript-certified — oversight harder to verify
  • Compounded only — no brand-name access
