TeleClinic

Shoppers outside California, New Jersey and South Carolina who want a cheap first month and a rate that's locked as the dose goes up.

Reasons to consider it

  • Names its pharmacy (Rush Pharmacy, a 503A compounder) and its physician network (LocumTele)
  • Price-lock: the monthly rate stays the same as your dose increases, for as long as you're a member
  • Publishes a full list of the 47 states it serves

What to weigh up

  • The $79 and $149 headline prices cover only the first month; after that it's $199 and $299, or $139 and $219 a month for the first quarter if you pay quarterly
  • Not available in California, New Jersey or South Carolina
  • Refills renew automatically every 30 days until you cancel

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