Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓Flat pricing across doses is promised in the banner: "SAME PRICE EVERY MONTH"
✓Promotional rates published up front - GLP-1 from $89/month and GLP-1 + GIP from $149/month
✓24/7 support advertised, and no insurance required

Cons

✗The FDA has formally told altRx that its labelling and its "clinically proven" claims misrepresented its compounded products - see the warning letter above
✗The medication is compounded and therefore not FDA-approved - the agency has not reviewed it for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
✗Compounded GLP-1 pricing in this tier is cheap partly because the product carries none of the trial programme, patent or distribution costs of the approved drug - and none of its regulatory review either
✗The headline rates are a dated summer promotion ("OFFER ENDS AUGUST 5TH AT MIDNIGHT") against a standing price of $199/month, so the advertised figure is not the ongoing one
✗No phone number, refund policy or pharmacy named on the site

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓Consultation pricing is published in full: $195 for the introductory consultation, $159 for a follow-up, and $249 for a package of both - a $105 saving on buying them separately
✓No membership or hidden fees
✓Insurance coverage assistance is offered even though the consultations themselves are cash-pay
✓An established telehealth practice with a real clinical operation behind it rather than a single-product weight-loss funnel
✓A BMI calculator is provided on the weight-loss page
✓The consultation model means you are paying for clinician time rather than a bundled subscription you have to remember to cancel
✓States plainly that obtaining an online prescription requires a consultation with a healthcare provider who determines whether medication is appropriate

Cons

✗The consultation fee does not include medication. $195 buys the assessment and a prescription if appropriate; the drug is a separate cost you cannot work out from the site
✗$195 for an introductory visit is expensive next to QuickMD at $99 or Doctronic at $39
✗MEDvidi is primarily a mental-health telehealth company, and weight loss is a newer service line rather than its core competence
✗It does not state whether the GLP-1 prescribed is brand-name or compounded
✗No pharmacy, fulfilment or shipping arrangement is described
✗Follow-up consultations at $159 each add up quickly on a medication that needs regular titration
✗No published refund policy, HSA/FSA guidance or state list on the weight-loss page
