Pros

✓Pricing is published without an intake and stated as locked in with no hidden fees: Slim oral semaglutide at $299/month and TRT starting at $99/month (checked July 28, 2026)
✓Provider visits and shipping are free on all orders, so there is no separate consultation fee stacked on top
✓The TRT program includes a comprehensive lab test and a personalized plan, with a full refund if you do not qualify - so the assessment carries no financial risk
✓The compounded-medication disclosure is thorough and correctly worded, including the point that clinical data from FDA-approved drugs may not transfer to compounded versions
✓It explicitly disclaims any relationship with Novo Nordisk or Eli Lilly rather than trading on their brand names
✓An orally dissolving tablet is a genuine convenience for people who will not inject, and the formulation adds vitamin B6, which the site says is intended to reduce nausea
✓Replied to 100% of negative Trustpilot reviews
✓A dedicated safety page, pharmacy disclaimer and telehealth consent are all published and dated

Cons

✗At $299/month, Slim is one of the more expensive semaglutide options we cover - and it is compounded. For comparison, the FDA-approved oral semaglutide listed elsewhere on this site sits at $149/month, so you would be paying roughly double for a preparation the FDA has not reviewed
✗There is no published bioavailability data for this tablet. Approved oral semaglutide relies on an absorption enhancer (SNAC) plus a strict fasting-and-water protocol precisely because semaglutide is a peptide that is poorly absorbed by mouth. Without that data, there is no way to know how much drug a compounded orally dissolving tablet actually delivers
✗The weight-loss figures associated with semaglutide - roughly 14.9% of body weight over 68 weeks in the STEP-1 trial - come from weekly subcutaneous injections of the branded drug, not from a compounded oral tablet. Do not assume the results transfer
✗The FDA declared the semaglutide shortage resolved in early 2025, after which compounders were required to stop producing what amounts to a copy of an approved drug. Providers still selling compounded semaglutide generally argue their formulation is materially different. It is a fair question to put to the provider before paying
✗The refund policy covers dispensing errors, cancellation before filling, and shipping damage reported within 7 days. It does not cover simply not getting on with the treatment
✗Only 15 Trustpilot reviews, and no BBB profile, so there is very little independent evidence either way
✗No corporate entity, address or phone number appears anywhere on the site - support is a single email address
✗This offer is not available in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, California, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, North Dakota, South Carolina, South Dakota or Wyoming
✗The brand voice leans heavily on bravado - 'MAN. GO.', 'You badass' - which sits oddly against prescribing a GLP-1 and testosterone, where the tone you want is clinical caution
✗Semaglutide is not suitable for anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2, and is not for use in pregnancy. Pancreatitis and gallbladder disease are recognised risks

Medications

liraglutide

Pros

✓Every medication is priced individually and published up front: compounded liraglutide $160/mo, naltrexone and bupropion $60/mo, phentermine and topiramate $65/mo, sermorelin $130/mo, each plus membership (checked July 26, 2026)
✓Care is built around actual bloodwork rather than a questionnaire alone, with lab testing included in the membership
✓Two clear membership tiers with no lock-in: Basic at $25/mo and Premium at $155/mo, cancel anytime
✓LegitScript certified, and the affiliated medical practice (Broad Health) is named rather than hidden
✓Trustpilot score of 4.8 from over 12,000 reviews
✓Also treats testosterone, thyroid, menopause and sexual health, so it suits someone wanting hormone care and weight care from one provider
✓Hone states plainly that it does not sell, manufacture or dispense medications and that third-party pharmacies set their own prices

Cons

✗The only GLP-1 offered is compounded liraglutide, a daily injection. In the SCALE trial liraglutide 3.0 mg produced about 8% mean weight loss over 56 weeks, against roughly 15% for semaglutide and 21% for tirzepatide in their trials. If you want the stronger drugs, Hone is not where to get them
✗Compounded liraglutide is not FDA-approved and has not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, efficacy or quality
✗Costs stack: $160/mo for the medication plus $25/mo Basic or $155/mo Premium membership, so the realistic all-in is roughly $185 to $315 a month for the weakest GLP-1 on the market
✗Full access to medications is described as a Premium feature, so the cheap Basic tier may not be enough for a GLP-1 plan
✗You can pay for lab work and still not qualify for treatment. The terms state neither Hone nor Broad Health controls whether the lab refunds you 'even if you do not qualify for any treatment'
✗The Terms of Use require binding arbitration and waive class action rights
✗No customer phone number; support is by email and portal only, and slow responses are a recurring complaint theme
✗This offer is not available in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah or Vermont
