FitFlow
61/100Where the value is
- LegitScript certified
- Transparent regular pricing displayed upfront without requiring an account
- Multiple payment options including Klarna financing
The tradeoffs
- Promo pricing (FLOW25) is undisclosed in duration -- classic 'limited time' ambiguity
- No named medical director found anywhere on the site
Lemonaid Health
61/100Where the value is
- Publishes a genuinely detailed price ladder — monthly, 3-month, and 6-month tiers for both standard and microdose compounded GLP-1s — rather than a single vague 'starting at' figure
- LegitScript certified with a described clinical team of physicians, pharmacists, NPs and RNs, licensed across all 50 states
- Microdose options exist for patients who want a lower-dose, lower-cost entry point
The tradeoffs
- Every compounded plan's advertised price excludes the mandatory $49/month membership fee, which is billed separately — the real floor is $248/mo, not the $199/mo headline
- Cash-pay only; no insurance accepted for the GLP-1 program
