YourEra
43/100Where the value is
- No membership-fee structure; the site markets "No Hidden Costs" and says there are no long-term contracts, with pause or cancel from the patient portal
- Prescriptions are "issued only if deemed medically appropriate" after evaluation by licensed US clinicians, stated plainly
- Names its legal entity in its Terms of Service (YourEra, Inc. and/or its subsidiaries)
The tradeoffs
- The homepage advertises semaglutide "from $79/mo" and tirzepatide "from $159/mo" with no plan length attached, and every sign-up button on it carries a 20% new-patient coupon, so neither figure is what a month-to-month plan costs after the first month
- The price you will pay appears only after you enter an email address in the intake, so the standing monthly rate can't be checked before you sign up
BraveRX
43/100Where the value is
- Its ED formulas combine tadalafil, sildenafil and apomorphine in one dissolvable tablet or capsule, prescribed after an online quiz reviewed by a licensed doctor
- Prices are shown on the product pages, with Surge Max listed at $119 and "from $28 per week"
- Free discreet shipping
The tradeoffs
- It doesn't offer semaglutide, tirzepatide or any GLP-1 weight-loss treatment
- Its products are compounded combinations, which are not FDA-approved
