Candor Rx
72/100Where the value is
- Flat, dose-independent pricing confirmed on both drug sections — no dose-based upcharge
- Cancel anytime with a full refund if the physician can't prescribe
- Names a specific compounding pharmacy (Manifest Pharmacy, Greer, SC) rather than an anonymous claim
The tradeoffs
- The site's own $95/month hero banner does not match either real price — semaglutide is actually $99 and tirzepatide $149, a headline-vs-actual mismatch a shopper could easily be misled by
- No named medical director or individual prescriber — only 'US-based doctors'
Liv Body
72/100Where the value is
- Semaglutide starts at $99 and tirzepatide at $149 a month, with no membership fee and free expedited shipping
- No long-term contract and no cancellation fee; you cancel from the patient portal
- Names its four dispensing pharmacies, with addresses and phone numbers, and says OpenLoop Health clinicians make the prescribing decision
The tradeoffs
- Both prices are "starting at" figures, and the page says the actual price depends on the product and plan prescribed, so confirm your dose's price before you pay
- No list of the states it serves
