- 90-day money-back guarantee on GLP-1 treatment
The tradeoffs
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved finished products
- Specific 503A pharmacy partner is not named publicly
Reset Solutions
53/100Where the value is
- Physician-prescribed, with real in-person program elements (3D body composition testing, coaching)
- Program fee and medication cost are both disclosed, even if easy to misread as one number
- Local clinic model may suit patients who prefer some in-person contact over pure telehealth
The tradeoffs
- The advertised '$70/month' medication price excludes the mandatory $99/month program fee -- real minimum cost is closer to $169/month
- Local Texas clinic only -- not a nationwide telehealth option
