The comparison in brief

Both score 67/100 on the Cost-Efficiency Index. There is no score winner; compare the treatment you need, billing terms and state availability.

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.

Lumen Meds

Shoppers comfortable committing to three months who want one published price at every dose.

Reasons to consider it

  • Publishes flat monthly prices for both medications, including visits and shipping
  • Names MD Integrations as its clinical network and The Pharmacy Hub as its dispensing partner
  • Includes provider check-ins, lifestyle coaching and expedited cold shipping

What to weigh up

  • Both weight-loss programs require a three-month commitment, even when paid monthly
  • Leaving early incurs a fee equal to the full retail monthly price: $249.99 for semaglutide or $349.99 for tirzepatide
  • A successful cancellation before intake deducts a $99 administrative fee; cancellations after intake are not refunded

ElixaMD

Shoppers who also want skincare/hair-loss/men's-health services bundled with GLP-1 care.

Reasons to consider it

  • Compounded semaglutide is $199 a month with care and medication included, no contract, and $99 for the first month
  • Brand-name Wegovy (injection or pill) and Zepbound are offered too
  • Three named, specific compounding pharmacy partners (unusually transparent)

What to weigh up

  • No tirzepatide price is published
  • Brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound cost a $99 membership plus the medication, and the medication price isn't published
  • No single named medical director, just a network reference
