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.

Fitstry

Shoppers who want month-to-month compounded GLP-1 pricing with coaching, labs and a named physician setting the protocols.

Reasons to consider it

  • Publishes month-to-month prices: compounded semaglutide $249, tirzepatide $339 and a daily tablet $279, cancel any time
  • No program fee for now, and the first month is refunded in full if a clinician doesn't approve you
  • Clinical protocols set by a named board-certified physician, Dr. Sergio Naccarato, MD

What to weigh up

  • Bills every four weeks, so a year is 13 charges, not 12
  • The lower 'starting at' prices on its cards aren't tied to a stated plan length
  • The program fee is waived only for a limited time, and its amount isn't published

LifeMD

Insured shoppers chasing a low brand-name GLP-1 copay who understand that the program fee and the medication are billed separately.

Reasons to consider it

  • Prescribes FDA-approved brand-name GLP-1s: the Wegovy pill and pen, Foundayo tablets, and Zepbound vials and pens
  • Publishes self-pay starting prices: Wegovy pill $149, Wegovy pen $199 and Zepbound vial $299 a month, before the program fee
  • Insured patients may pay as little as $0 to $25 per fill, and LifeMD's team runs the insurance check for you

What to weigh up

  • The $149 monthly program fee is charged on top of the medication, so the cheapest self-pay option, the Wegovy pill, comes to about $298 a month
  • The $39 first month is a discount on the program fee only, and page banners quoting $75 or $29 don't say which plan they apply to
  • Zepbound vials start at about $448 a month once the program fee is added
