Medications

orforglipron

Pros

✓The first and only FDA-approved GLP-1 pill for weight loss that can be taken at any time of day with no food or water restrictions, approved 1 April 2026
✓In the ATTAIN-1 trial, participants on the highest dose who stayed on treatment lost an average of 27.3 pounds (12.4% of body weight) against 2.2 pounds (0.9%) on placebo
✓Counting everyone randomised regardless of whether they finished, the average was still 25 pounds (11.1%) versus 5.3 pounds (2.1%) on placebo - Lilly published both numbers rather than only the flattering one
✓A once-daily tablet, so there is no injection, no needle disposal and no refrigeration to organise
✓Self-pay pricing is published up front at $149 per month for the lowest dose through LillyDirect, with free home delivery
✓Eligible people with commercial insurance may pay as little as $25 per month with the Foundayo savings card
✓Eligible Medicare Part D patients may be able to get it for $50 per month from as early as 1 July 2026 - a rarity in this category
✓Lilly reported reductions in waist circumference, non-HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and systolic blood pressure across all doses
✓It is a small-molecule (non-peptide) GLP-1, which is why it can be manufactured as a pill rather than an injection

Cons

✗Weight loss is meaningfully lower than the best injectables. 12.4% at the top dose sits below tirzepatide territory, so if maximum weight loss is the goal an injection still wins
✗It carries the class boxed warning: it may cause thyroid tumours including thyroid cancer, and must not be used by anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2
✗Should not be used alongside another GLP-1 receptor agonist
✗Common side effects include nausea, constipation, diarrhoea, vomiting, indigestion, abdominal pain, headache, fatigue, heartburn, gas and hair loss
✗Serious risks in the label include pancreatitis, dehydration leading to kidney problems, gallbladder problems, severe allergic reactions and aspiration risk under anaesthesia
✗Safety and effectiveness in children have not been established
✗$149 is the price of the lowest dose only - higher doses cost more, and the $25 and $50 figures depend on insurance eligibility rather than being available to everyone
✗Very new to market, so there is no long-term real-world safety and adherence record yet

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓Offers both routes: FDA-approved brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound and Mounjaro, and compounded semaglutide, rather than forcing you down the compounded path
✓Works with insurance and assigns coordinators to help maximise coverage - brand-name medication can be as low as $25/month with insurance
✓Compounded semaglutide is quoted from $151/month when purchased quarterly, and the same figure is quoted for patients without insurance
✓A published phone number ((877) 870-0323), support email and a real New York business address (30 Irving Pl, New York, NY 10003)
✓The subscription, cancellation and refund policy is published in full as a standalone page rather than buried in terms of service
✓Cancellation is self-service through "Manage Membership" in your account, with the steps spelled out
✓Prior authorisations are submitted on your behalf, and the FAQ covers what happens when insurance denies them
✓A broad service (weight loss, sexual health, hair, mental health) with real operational scale behind it

Cons

✗Consultation fees and any charges associated with your provider visit or membership are explicitly non-refundable
✗The membership fee is separate from medication cost, and Zealthy warns it is "not a covered benefit under most health insurance plans or other healthcare benefit plans such as the Health Saving Account or Flexible Spending Account"
✗You must cancel before renewal to avoid being charged for the next period - there is no grace-period refund
✗Once medication has proof of delivery from the carrier, no refund is possible; a replacement means a new charge
✗Membership terms include binding individual arbitration, which waives your right to sue or join a class action
✗Zealthy reserves the right to change fees at any time and to modify the refund policy without prior notice
✗The $151 figure depends on buying quarterly, and permanent "limited time" discount banners ($96 off, "sale ends soon") make the real price hard to pin down
✗The operating entity is FitRX, LLC dba Zealthy, which is not obvious from the branding
