Compare with other providers
All 491 other providers we've modeled, in Cost-Efficiency Index order. See the ranked alternatives to Vaylen.
- #23bmiMD— Very low $99/$139 pricing on both molecules nationwide — excellent sticker value, though without LegitScript verification.84/100
- #24Ro— The widest formulary — brand-name and oral access — but opaque compounded pricing means you can't model the value until you're already in the funnel.84/100
- #25Hims & Hers— Nationwide reach and a slick app at a mid-market semaglutide price — but an undisclosed tirzepatide price leaves part of the value equation blank.83/100
- #26Care Bare Rx— A LegitScript-certified, HIPAA-compliant multi-service platform that bundles weight loss with hair, TRT, sexual health and NAD+ — with both oral (Rybelsus and oral tirzepatide) and injectable compounded routes — but it won't show you a price until you're inside the intake.80/100
- #27Live Vital— A very low $99 semaglutide nationwide, with tirzepatide disclosed too — cheap and all-50, but without LegitScript verification.82/100
- #28Piper— $135 semaglutide and $199 tirzepatide nationwide — fair, fully-disclosed mid-market pricing, but without LegitScript verification to back the oversight claim.82/100
