Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓Compounded injectable semaglutide from $149/month and compounded tirzepatide from $199/month on auto-refill, with a 30-day tirzepatide supply listed at $325 without it (checked July 27, 2026)
✓Explains what compounded medication actually is, and why it is not FDA-approved, instead of burying a disclaimer - the clearest patient-facing explanation of the distinction we found
✓Free online MD visit, free shipping and free follow-up care are all included in the price
✓Damaged or defective orders can be reported within two weeks, far more workable than the 24 to 48-hour windows most competitors impose
✓Publishes a support email, a street address and actual support hours rather than a contact form alone
✓Oral semaglutide is offered alongside injectables, plus sermorelin for those who want a non-GLP-1 option
✓Cancel anytime, and the pricing page states plainly that medical necessity is required rather than implying everyone qualifies
✓Separate men's and women's weight-loss pathways, and a broad catalogue covering hair, skin, sexual health and menopause

Cons

✗The refund policy was last modified on 21 September 2021, years before Strut added its GLP-1 line, so the document governing your money predates the product you are buying
✗No returns or refunds once medication leaves the pharmacy, and no refund for cancellations received after the pharmacy has processed the order
✗The tirzepatide page places 'Just $6.63' beside a '30 DAY SUPPLY $325' heading. The $6.63 figure is the daily rate for the $199 auto-refill price, not for the $325 supply shown next to it
✗'As low as' pricing is tied to committing to auto-refill, and the site does not show what a single non-recurring order costs for semaglutide
✗There is no independent review signal at all - no Trustpilot profile, no BBB file - so nothing external corroborates the service quality
✗GLP-1 sits inside a large catalogue spanning hair, skin and sexual health, so the weight-loss programme gets less dedicated clinical content than a specialist provider offers
✗Support runs weekdays 9am-5pm ET only, with no evening, weekend or phone coverage published
✗Compounded products carry the usual caveat that they have not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, efficacy or quality

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓The entire weight-loss line is FDA-approved branded medication - Wegovy pen and pill, Zepbound vial and KwikPen, Ozempic, Ozempic pill, Mounjaro and the new Foundayo pill - with no compounded product in the lineup
✓Genuinely competitive medication pricing for branded drugs: the Wegovy pill and Foundayo pill from $149/mo and the Wegovy pen and Ozempic from $199/mo (checked July 26, 2026)
✓A microdosing plan for the Wegovy pill is offered at the same $149/mo, which is unusual for a branded product
✓Zepbound vial and KwikPen at $299/mo undercut what many telehealth platforms charge for the same branded product
✓Every product carries an 'Important safety information' link directly beside it
✓A large, established, publicly listed company with real regulatory exposure, rather than an anonymous LLC
✓Ongoing care is included from day one alongside the medication

Cons

✗The advertised prices are medication only. A Hims Weight Loss Membership is required on top - $39 for the first month, then auto-renewing at $149/month - so the realistic all-in cost starts near $298/month and reaches about $448/month for Zepbound
✗The membership 'does not include or guarantee a prescription', and medication 'is not available without a membership'. You can pay $149 a month and be declined treatment
✗The $39 introductory membership auto-renews at nearly four times that rate
✗Mounjaro and Zepbound are listed at $1,899/month, far above the manufacturers' own direct-pay programmes
✗Trustpilot sits at 3.0 out of 5 across 8,862 reviews - the weakest independent score of any major provider we have reviewed here, despite the FDA-approved lineup
✗The '32 lbs' figure beside the Wegovy pill is asterisked to trial data for the branded drug, not to outcomes among Hims members
✗Ozempic and Mounjaro are FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes, so prescribing them for weight loss is off-label and depends on your clinical picture
✗Because medication and membership are billed separately, the headline price understates what leaves your account each month
