HealthRX
74/100Where the value is
- All 50 states, printed in the site's own header strip rather than left to the intake quiz
- Specific, checkable LegitScript certificate number (50087439) rather than just a generic badge image
- "Same price at every dose" policy avoids dose-based price creep
The tradeoffs
- The advertised $99 and $179 are twelve-month prepay rungs — $1,188 and $2,148 up front. The standing month-to-month rates are $190 and $239, roughly double and a third higher
- A second discount is stacked on the same headline: $99 semaglutide and $149 tirzepatide are also first-month intro rates on the monthly plan, so month two costs more than month one
EverSlim
76/100Where the value is
- Transparent flat pricing from 127 dollars a month for compounded semaglutide; medication, provider visit, and shipping included with no insurance.
- Names its pharmacy partners (EPIQ Scripts, Foothills, Emerald) and DrTelx medical group; LegitScript-approved and NABP-accredited.
- Available in all 50 states and DC, with asynchronous care in 44 states and live-visit access in the rest.
The tradeoffs
- No price tiers are published anywhere: /pricing is a 404, the footer pricing link is a same-page anchor, and the checkout is behind a login, so what a titrated dose costs is unknowable before signing up
- Cancellation requires at least 72 hours' notice before the next billing date, or the subscription renews for another cycle
