Ozari Health
73/100Where the value is
- Very low entry pricing — compounded semaglutide from $86/month
- LegitScript certified and operated by a named entity (Ozari LLC)
- Board-certified physicians; meds compounded in 503A and 503B facilities
The tradeoffs
- The advertised rates are three-month starter plans for first-time GLP-1 users, billed $257 and $375 up front; month-to-month is $175 and $235
- Canceling an annual or semi-annual plan early re-prices the installments already shipped at the standard monthly rate and charges the difference
Recovery Delivered
72/100Where the value is
- Every dose tier's price is published month-by-month rather than hidden behind a single 'starting at' figure
- Visit, medication, injection kit, and delivery are stated as bundled into each tier with no itemized add-ons found
- Oral (drops/tablets) alternative offered alongside injectable, starting at $249/month
The tradeoffs
- The $219.99/$199.99 headline figures are STARTING-dose prices only — the site's own tiers show cost rising to $299.99/month by month 5 as the dose increases, so the true steady-state cost for most patients is meaningfully higher than the headline
- Explicitly unavailable in at least 19 states including California, Illinois, and Michigan — not a 50-state provider
