Found
88/100Where the value is
- Lowest cost-per-month on the board — identical $129 on both molecules
- Nationwide
- Strong behavior-change program adds value
The tradeoffs
- Coaching subscription can't be unbundled, which reduces contract flexibility
- Compounded only
Potere Health MD
59/100Where the value is
- Low starting pricing (about $80-$135/month) with no subscription lock-in
- Physician-led by a named MD, not automated messaging
- Third-party COA and LegitScript-certified pharmacy
The tradeoffs
- Available in Utah only — a St George clinic offering telehealth within the state, not a national service
- The per-vial price is fixed, so the monthly cost rises steeply with the dose: the provider's own table runs about $20/mo at 0.25 mg, $80/mo at 1.0 mg and about $199/mo at 2.5 mg
