CaliberRx
63/100Where the value is
- Flat, identical $199/month pricing for both semaglutide and tirzepatide -- no confusing dose tiers to compare
- No prepay or first-month-only trap detected on the pages checked
- LegitScript certification verifiably linked
The tradeoffs
- No individual medical director named
- No compounding pharmacy named
Green Cap Health
63/100Where the value is
- Vertically integrated: the prescribing practice and the compounding pharmacy are the same company, so the supply chain is short and named
- Same-day provider review and 1-3 day discreet shipping
- The full commitment ladder is published, so the month-to-month rate and the six-month rate can be compared directly
The tradeoffs
- The advertised $2.63-a-day and $79 first-month figures do not correspond to any purchasable plan; the cheapest real rates are $129/mo semaglutide and $199/mo tirzepatide, both on six-month commitments, and month-to-month is $179 and $279
- The terms disclose a separate Weight Management Program Membership Fee, charged periodically on top of the plan and revealed only during checkout — it appears on no product page
