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.

Oak

Shoppers who want one price at every dose, no subscription, and the option of a brand-name pen or the Wegovy pill on the same account.

Reasons to consider it

  • One price at every dose on its order form — $250 a month for semaglutide, $300 for tirzepatide — so titrating up does not raise the bill
  • The order form shows every price before it asks for your name or any health details
  • Billed one month at a time with no subscription; a three-month supply paid upfront brings the monthly cost to $200 and about $267

What to weigh up

  • The homepage advertises weight-loss treatment "from $89/mo" and the weight-loss page "$190/mo", with no term on either and neither matching any price on the order form
  • The lower price shown first on the order form is a first-month discount; the standing price is the struck-through figure beside it
  • A three-month supply is billed upfront in one charge, and nothing is refundable once a provider has approved the order and it has shipped

Zera Health

Shoppers who want a named 503A pharmacy and full 50-state coverage at a moderate compounded price.

Reasons to consider it

  • Named dispensing pharmacy — Strive Pharmacy, a 503A compounder — disclosed in the footer
  • LegitScript Certified badge displayed
  • States coverage across all 50 states with no exclusions listed

What to weigh up

  • First-month, monthly and quarterly prices differ; confirm your plan and second charge before paying
  • Quarterly plans require three months of payment at once
  • No individual prescriber or medical director is named
