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.

Zenbody

Shoppers who want the choice of a weekly injection or a daily oral tablet for either semaglutide or tirzepatide, and who will confirm the month-two price before paying.

Reasons to consider it

  • Both semaglutide and tirzepatide come as a weekly injection or a daily oral tablet, with each format priced on its product page
  • The monthly price includes the medication, clinical oversight, dose adjustments, care-team messaging and shipping, with no insurance needed
  • You can pause or cancel at any time, and a cancellation keeps your access through the end of the billing period

What to weigh up

  • The advertised prices are introductory starting-dose figures; the site says flat monthly pricing applies after the first month but doesn't print that price, so check it at checkout
  • The homepage also advertises 40% off your first month without saying which figure the discount applies to
  • The terms say fees are not refundable in whole or in part

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

Shapely

Insured patients in CA, FL, NY or TX who want help getting coverage for brand-name GLP-1s.

Reasons to consider it

  • Named, credentialed founder (Dr. Justin Zaghi, Harvard-trained, board-certified obesity medicine)
  • Genuine insurance-navigation service across 8 major payers, potentially large savings if covered
  • Both cash-pay compounded and insurance-covered branded pathways offered

What to weigh up

  • Live in only 4 states (CA, FL, NY, TX) despite a '50-state expansion' announcement
  • Separate membership fee stacks on top of medication cost, and its headline prices ($9 first month, $49/mo promo) are not the real ongoing rate ($99/mo)
  • Actual out-of-pocket cost for insured users is plan-dependent and not disclosed upfront

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