Jyra Health
74/100Where the value is
- Genuine, math-consistent 3-month prepay discount ($111 off semaglutide, $60 off tirzepatide across 3 months) rather than a vague 'up to X% off' claim
- Flat price at every dose with no renewal increase, on both the 1-month and 3-month tiers
- Claims all-50-state coverage with no membership fees and free express delivery
The tradeoffs
- The lower headline-friendly prices ($139/mo semaglutide, $179/mo tirzepatide) are only available by prepaying a full 3-month plan up front, not as a standing month-to-month rate
- No compounding pharmacy is named anywhere on the site
Gala Health
71/100Where the value is
- $179/mo on a yearly subscription, with every dose included, so the price does not climb as you titrate — dose escalation is where most flat-looking programs quietly get expensive
- The price list is PUBLIC and un-gated: the weight tier, the $149 microdosing tier and the brand tier are all printed before any quiz, intake or email capture
- Both compounded molecules — semaglutide and tirzepatide — prescribable on one account
The tradeoffs
- No month-to-month price exists anywhere on the site. "FROM $179/month" sits directly above "All doses included. Yearly subscription.", and the cheapest alternative the FAQ names is "$199 per month (with a 3-month plan)" — three months is the shortest published commitment there is
- $179/mo is $2,148 committed for the year, and that total is printed nowhere: the site quotes a monthly figure for a purchase it only sells annually, which is the single hardest cost in this ranking to compare against a rate you can cancel next month
