PrescribedRX

50/100

Where the value is

  • Dose-flat pricing -- cost doesn't increase as you titrate up
  • Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide offered
  • LegitScript badge displayed

The tradeoffs

  • 3-month tirzepatide 'starting at' price is a $697 upfront prepay trap, not the real monthly rate
  • Confusing bundle pricing where the 'special offer' is actually pricier than the plain monthly plan

WePeptideRx

50/100

Where the value is

  • Full dose-by-dose price ladder published with no signup required — 5 tiers for semaglutide, 6 for tirzepatide, each with exact mg dose and matching monthly cost
  • Genuinely all-in pricing — consultation, medication, and shipping in one number, no separate visit fee
  • Named Medical Director, Hridyesh Nat, MD — a real correction to the current record, which lists this as undisclosed

The tradeoffs

  • The lowest advertised monthly rate ($166-176 effective) is NOT the month-to-month price — it requires prepaying a 3-month, $499-529 lump sum
  • Pharmacy partner is not named on the pricing page
