The comparison in brief

Both score 66/100 on the Cost-Efficiency Index. There is no score winner; compare the treatment you need, billing terms and state availability.

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.

Cielo

Shoppers who want one price at every dose and can choose between a monthly plan and cheaper 3-, 6- or 12-month plans.

Reasons to consider it

  • Flat pricing regardless of dose for both semaglutide and tirzepatide, avoiding per-mg price escalation during titration
  • Free physician consult and free shipping stated as included
  • Claims 'Every batch tested', at least asserting quality-control testing exists

What to weigh up

  • The 3-, 6- and 12-month plans don't say whether they're paid up front or billed monthly, so ask before you pick one
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only, with no brand-name option
  • The site doesn't name its pharmacy, medical director or prescribers

Factor Health MD

Shoppers who want one price at every dose and can commit to at least three months, with cheaper rates for 6- and 12-month plans.

Reasons to consider it

  • Every plan includes all doses at one flat rate with no per-mg increase, as its own FAQ states
  • LegitScript certified (badge displayed in the site footer)
  • Monthly-plan prices are low for the category: $99.99 for semaglutide and $189.99 for tirzepatide, with medication, supplies, visits and shipping included

What to weigh up

  • The 'from $79.99' banner is the 12-month plan, and the FAQ contradicts itself: one answer says there are no long-term commitments, another says subscription plans need an initial 3-month commitment and 14 days' notice to cancel
  • No compounding pharmacy is individually named, only a generic 'network of licensed, FDA-regulated pharmacies'
  • No named medical director or individual prescriber
