Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓Offers brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound as well as compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, so you are not locked into compounded product
✓Trustpilot rating of 4.3 across 4,535 reviews, one of the largest and healthiest review samples of any provider on this site
✓Membership, virtual visits, support groups, lifestyle coaching and prescription ordering are bundled at no extra cost
✓Cancel or pause the plan at any time to stop future billing
✓Full refund if you pay and a provider then determines you are not eligible for treatment
✓The compounded, not-FDA-approved disclosure is specific and easy to find
✓Testimonials are labelled honestly - the page states 'These Fridays members were paid for their testimonials', which most competitors do not admit
✓Oral and injectable formats, plus microdosing, longevity and testosterone lines for people wanting more than weight care

Cons

✗The pricing page contradicts itself in the same viewport, advertising 'Now as Low as $117/mo' and 'Now as Low as $150/mo' side by side, and listing 'Semaglutide: $117/mo (Lowest Price)' directly above 'Semaglutide: $150/mo (Lowest Price)'
✗Four separate plan cards display an unrendered template placeholder reading 'Save up to $xxx' instead of an actual figure
✗The headline '96.8% success rate' is stated three times with no definition of success, no sample size and no source
✗Prices are gated behind a maze of codes - NEWYOU12, NEWYOU3, NEWYOU1, NYNY12, NYNY3, NYNY1, FORBES, EXPERTISE, SHOP100 - and the terms confirm 'the discount will be applied to your first payment only'
✗The relationship between the advertised rate and the annual rate is presented confusingly, with semaglutide shown as 'Starting at $117 $150/mo' and '$279/mo with an annual plan' on the same card
✗No refunds or credits are given for partial plan periods unless required by law, so pausing mid-cycle does not get money back
✗The '$49 first month' offer converts to a prepaid annual plan, which means committing a year in advance to keep the low rate
✗Charges appear under a third party's name on your statement, which has caused confusion for customers of similar services

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓The compounded disclaimer is explicit and sits on the product page itself, not in a distant footer
✓It directs patients to the FDA's adverse event reporting line (1-800-FDA-1088), which almost no competitor does
✓A real customer phone number is published rather than a contact form alone
✓Both semaglutide and tirzepatide are offered in injectable and oral forms
✓Quarterly billing at the starting dose is inexpensive - $239 per refill billed every three months for injectable semaglutide, and $399 for injectable tirzepatide (checked July 27, 2026)
✓The pricing footnote is honest about what it covers: 'Advertised pricing reflects the starting dosage'
✓Peptide and NAD+ lines are available alongside weight care

Cons

✗The monthly purchase option displays a price of '$0*/month'. On the primary buying path for the flagship product, the price simply does not render
✗Pricing is not flat across doses. The footnote states 'Actual price depends on the dosage prescribed by your provider', so the advertised figure applies only at the starting dose and rises as you titrate up - the opposite of the flat-price model most competitors offer, and a significant cost risk over a year
✗The '4.8/5' rating shown on product pages has no traceable source, and no Trustpilot profile exists for the domain
✗The homepage is effectively a navigation shell - it carries menus and a phone number but almost no content, pricing or explanation
✗Product pages are only reachable at bare paths such as /injectable-semaglutide; the more conventional /products/ and /weight-loss/ paths return empty shells
✗No refund or cancellation policy could be found beyond a 'Returns' link
✗No support hours are published, and there is no independent complaint record of any kind
✗Because the real cost depends on the dose you end up on, you cannot work out what a year of treatment will cost before signing up
