Semaglutide Online

63/100

Where the value is

  • Compounded tier is genuinely all-inclusive — no separate $44/mo provider subscription, unlike its own branded-drug track
  • Offers 0% interest financing plans (12 or 24 months) for those who want to spread the cost
  • No long-term contract — site states you can cancel anytime

The tradeoffs

  • The compounded semaglutide price is internally inconsistent on the site's own product page — $179/mo appears in one place, $199/mo (all-inclusive) in another, with no reconciliation
  • Brand-name options carry a headline medication price that excludes a mandatory separate $44/mo provider subscription, understating the real all-in cost by nearly 20%

Hone Health

63/100

Where the value is

  • Every plan starts with a 50-plus biomarker lab panel and a live video consultation with a licensed physician
  • Medication prices are listed on the weight-loss page: compounded liraglutide at $160 a month, with naltrexone, bupropion, phentermine and topiramate at $60 to $65
  • Memberships carry no commitment and can be canceled at any time

The tradeoffs

  • It doesn't offer semaglutide or tirzepatide; its only GLP-1 is compounded liraglutide, a daily injection
  • The $160 liraglutide price comes on top of a membership: $25 a month for Basic or $155 a month for Premium, which includes full access to medications
