The comparison in brief

Both score 57/100 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.

LumiMeds

Shoppers willing to commit to a fixed plan term to get the lowest advertised rate, and who value a named, board-certified medical director.

Reasons to consider it

  • Named, credentialed Medical Director (Dr. Teresa Walsh, M.D., board certified in obesity medicine) rather than an anonymous 'board-certified physicians' claim
  • LegitScript Certified and HIPAA compliant
  • Full refund if a provider decides treatment isn't right for you

What to weigh up

  • Every plan is a fixed-term commitment: its terms make plans non-cancelable and non-refundable once started, and canceling for any reason other than a prescription denial costs a $100 fee
  • Both headline prices are 'as low as' figures, the product cards lead with first-month prices ($39 and $75), and the site doesn't say what the plain month-to-month rate is
  • Ships compounded medication to 'most U.S. states', with your state confirmed during the consultation

Regulatory note: the FDA issued a warning letter to Lumimeds in September 2025. We still list and link to LumiMeds; you should know the letter is on the public record before you decide.

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.

Layla

Shoppers who want brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound or Mounjaro with check-ins included and don't need a lower-cost compounded option.

Reasons to consider it

  • All-inclusive pricing bundles health check-ins, telehealth visits, prescription and unlimited doctor messaging into one price
  • Names its Medical Director (Dr. Ruth Cohen) on its site
  • LegitScript-certified badge displayed; fast 2-3 day shipping claimed

What to weigh up

  • Brand-only and expensive: the real floor is $1,399/mo (Ozempic/Mounjaro), not the $1,299 the homepage FAQ separately claims — the two figures don't reconcile
  • The lowest Zepbound figure shown ($1,599) is a one-time new-customer discount off a $1,699 standing price, not an ongoing rate
  • No compounded or lower-cost option on the current site, and states served are not published
