Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓The mandatory program fee is shown next to the medication price rather than buried in a footnote: compounded semaglutide from $75/mo and tirzepatide from $133/mo, each plus a $74.99/mo program fee (checked July 27, 2026)
✓Trustpilot rating of 4.9 from 38,826 reviews - the largest and strongest independent signal of any brand we have reviewed
✓Efficacy claims are sourced to Ivim's own published study, with the comparator spelled out and an explicit note that it was 'Not a head-to-head study'
✓The compounded, not-FDA-approved disclosure is stated plainly alongside the results claims rather than in a distant footer
✓The GLP-1 ID model offers weekly provider check-ins and weekly dose adjustments, which is more active titration support than most competitors provide
✓Brand-name options are available too - Wegovy pill, Foundayo pill, Zepbound, Mounjaro, Ozempic, Wegovy, Saxenda and liraglutide
✓Plan lengths are selectable at checkout (1, 2, 4 or 6 months) rather than defaulting to a single long commitment
✓This offer is restricted in only two states, Mississippi and Washington

Cons

✗The $74.99 monthly program fee effectively doubles the cost of the entry semaglutide plan, taking a '$75/mo' headline to about $150 all-in
✗The advertised 'starting at' rates depend on plan length, and the default 'Jumpstart' option is a 4-month commitment - so the cheapest prices are not available month to month
✗The headline result, that patients 'lost an average of 46% more weight over 68 weeks', comes from Ivim's own study rather than independent research, and the comparator was diet, exercise and counselling rather than another GLP-1 provider
✗Add-on benefits are quantified with unverifiable price tags - '1:1 Virtual Holistic Consultations $850 value' and 'Master classes, group coaching & community $500 value'
✗The weight-loss calculator produces a specific projection (41.8 lbs on the default settings) that no individual can rely on
✗The supplement catalogue is very large - collagen, NMN, creatine, colostrum, berberine and more - so there is a persistent upsell layer around the medical service
✗No published customer phone number or support hours
✗No BBB profile or complaint history to set against the Trustpilot score

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓Compounded semaglutide advertised from $159/mo and compounded tirzepatide from $239/mo, alongside brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound and the new Foundayo pill (checked July 26, 2026)
✓Three delivery formats: weekly injections, daily sublingual liquid drops and daily lozenges, so needle-free options are genuinely available
✓A 120-day weight loss guarantee that is actually written into the terms with defined conditions, rather than an unexplained banner claim
✓The arbitration clause and class action waiver can be opted out of within 30 days of accepting the terms
✓Buy-now-pay-later refunds are handled explicitly: Shed transmits refunds to Affirm, Klarna or Afterpay within three business days, and the terms state each lender's refund window
✓Non-GLP-1 options too - metformin, naltrexone, topiramate, MIC + B12 - so a provider has alternatives if a GLP-1 is not appropriate
✓Health coaching and a member success manager are part of the program, not an upsell
✓Members enrolled under a previous guarantee are grandfathered rather than moved to worse terms

Cons

✗The '120-Day Weight Loss Guarantee' is far more demanding than the asterisk suggests. To qualify you must log at least two weigh-ins a month (eight over the period), complete at least 50% of daily app check-ins - 60 days out of 120 - and submit every provider follow-up form on time. Miss the check-in quota and the guarantee lapses
✗The guarantee only pays out if you fail to lose 5% of your baseline body weight, so modest results still disqualify you from a refund
✗Trustpilot showed 1.8 out of 5, albeit from just 22 reviews - a small but uniformly poor public signal
✗Oral formats are not available in Alaska, Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, New Jersey, South Carolina, Virginia, Vermont, Wisconsin or West Virginia
✗'As low as $159' is a floor price; the site does not publish the plan ladder or say what commitment that rate requires
✗Shed's own product menu misspells its second GLP-1 as 'Compounded Trizepatide', which is not reassuring on a prescription page
✗The compounded products are not FDA-approved, and the '15%' and '20%' body-weight figures on the landing page come from trials of the branded drugs
✗Disputes go to binding arbitration unless you actively opt out in the first 30 days
