Medications

semaglutidetirzepatidemetformin

Pros

✓The full price ladder is published on the product page, not hidden behind a quiz: compounded semaglutide is $129 billed monthly, $119/mo on 3 months ($357), $109/mo on 6 months ($654) and $99/mo on 12 months ($1,188), checked July 26, 2026
✓You are not charged until a licensed provider confirms you are eligible. bmiMD authorises your card, releases the hold if you do not qualify, and states you 'won't incur any charges'
✓A 100% money-back guarantee if you are not approved for treatment, including the assessment
✓Unusually broad catalogue beyond GLP-1s: microdose semaglutide and tirzepatide, metformin from $19/mo, MIC + B12 from $69/mo, naltrexone/bupropion, sermorelin and NAD+
✓Free shipping on every subscription order and 24/7 clinician access included in the plan price
✓The compounded disclosure is explicit and specific, naming FDA-registered facilities while stating the drugs are not FDA-approved
✓Subscriptions can be cancelled or paused from your account rather than only by email

Cons

✗A $50 non-refundable cancellation fee applies if you cancel after your intake is approved but before the pharmacy processes the order - a charge most competitors do not levy
✗Once the prescription reaches the pharmacy, all sales are final: 'we do not offer refunds for partially used subscription periods'
✗The site runs constant price-increase pressure - a sitewide 'Prices increase soon, lock in today's rate before it goes up' banner, a 'Price increases in' countdown, 'LIMITED TIME' on every plan tier and 'Lock This Price Now' on every product
✗The homepage contradicts itself on tirzepatide, listing it at 'Starting as low as $149/mo' in one block and 'As low as $139/month' in another
✗The $99 headline requires committing to 12 months and paying $1,188 upfront; month to month is $129
✗This offer is not available in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, North Dakota or South Carolina
✗No BBB profile and a relatively small Trustpilot sample mean limited independent history to check
✗No published customer phone number, and the compounded disclosure sits on product pages rather than the landing page

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatideorforglipron

Pros

✓Publishes cash prices dose by dose, which no other provider on this site does. Zepbound KwikPen is $299/mo at 2.5mg, $398 at 5mg, $499 at 7.5mg and $698 at 10-15mg, so you can see exactly what titrating up will cost before you start
✓The same detail applies across the range: Wegovy pill $149/mo (1.5mg, 4mg) or $299 (9mg, 25mg); Wegovy pen $199 for the first two months for new patients then $349; Foundayo from $149 to $349 depending on dose (checked July 27, 2026)
✓Every medication offered is FDA-approved and branded - no compounded product is involved
✓Insurance is accepted, and with coverage medication can drop to as low as $25/mo
✓The care programme itself - video visits, dedicated provider, labs and messaging - starts at $59/mo
✓Efficacy milestones are properly sourced, citing a study of injectable semaglutide 2.4mg with the population spelled out (BMI 30+, or 27+ with a weight-related condition, non-diabetic) and paired with lifestyle change
✓A full refund is available if you cancel at least three hours before your first visit
✓The wider marketplace lets you compare individual providers on price, with appointments from $37

Cons

✗The $59/mo headline depends on a 12-month 'Success by Sesame' commitment, and the annual fee is explicitly non-refundable once paid - cancel in month two and you do not get the remaining ten months back
✗Medication costs are not included in the programme price, which Sesame states plainly but which means the real monthly outlay is the subscription plus the drug
✗Cash prices escalate steeply with dose. Zepbound more than doubles from $299 to $698 as you titrate to a maintenance dose, so the entry price is not the price you will end up paying
✗The Wegovy pen intro rate of $199 applies to new patients only and for two months, after which it is $349
✗Monthly subscribers are not refunded for months already paid, even if unused
✗Because pricing depends on insurance status, pharmacy and dose, there is no single figure you can plan around before signing up
✗This is a general healthcare marketplace, so the weight-loss programme sits alongside urgent care and prescription refills rather than being a dedicated speciality service
