- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on one account
- Available in all 50 states

- No FDA-approved brand-name option (compounded only)
- Does not yet publicly name its 503A/B pharmacy partner
Vaylen
What we like
- Full formulary: both molecules plus brand-name and oral routes
- LegitScript-certified and available in all 50 states
- Fair mid-market pricing for the breadth on offer
The caveats
