Collective

Shoppers who will stay on treatment for a full year, where the annual membership divides down over twelve months rather than landing on one.

Reasons to consider it

Both figures are medication prices rather than a care fee with the drug billed on top, and both appear before any intake
The membership covers unlimited doctor messaging, check-ins, dose adjustments, nutrition support and express cold shipping, all itemized
A 21-day free trial precedes the first membership charge, and the trial's auto-conversion is stated plainly

What to weigh up

The headline "Get GLP-1s at $59/month" leaves out the mandatory $199 annual membership, which appears only in a card panel, a small disclaimer and the FAQ
The membership is annual and auto-renewing, and all membership fees are non-refundable with no partial-period refund — so the cheapest medication price here cannot be bought for one month
The terms reserve an unpriced "nominal, uniform technology transaction fee for each electronic prescription transmission" while the homepage promises no hidden costs
