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.

Vital Edge

Shoppers who want compounded, oral and brand-name GLP-1 options from one practice, with prices listed up front.

Reasons to consider it

  • Every program price is listed on the homepage, and each includes the consultation, medication and shipping
  • Flat monthly fee with no upcharge as your dose rises
  • Unusually wide menu: compounded injections, compounded oral semaglutide ($199) and tirzepatide ($269) capsules, and brand Ozempic ($705), Mounjaro ($835), Wegovy ($990) and Rybelsus ($645)

What to weigh up

  • Its Terms of Service and HIPAA Notice links lead to a page-not-found screen, and no cancellation or refund terms are published
  • If you aren't prescribed medication, you're charged an $80 telehealth consult fee
  • The site calls its GLP-1 medications FDA-approved without separating the compounded versions, which are not FDA-approved

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

Primary Clinic (Direct GLP)

Shoppers inside its 10 served states who want primary care bundled with the prescription and will price the membership in.

Reasons to consider it

  • Both molecules are priced, as dose bands, so the cost of titrating up is visible rather than hidden
  • The $89 membership buys unlimited primary care, direct text access and same-day appointments, not just a prescription
  • Real per-dose pricing rather than one headline rate

What to weigh up

  • The medication price is on top of an $89/mo membership, which the FAQ states does not include the drug — all-in is about $174/mo semaglutide and $222/mo tirzepatide
  • Prices are published as dose BANDS, and the cheapest tirzepatide band starts at 1.25 mg, below the 2.5 mg labeled starting dose
  • Only 10 states served — a coverage gamble that guts its nationwide-access score

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