Verdict87/ 100
Grade B+ · #3Sesame Care
An established national telehealth marketplace carrying real brand-name GLP-1s — Wegovy (pen and pill), Zepbound, Ozempic and Mounjaro — where most programs we rank carry none, plus provider-by-provider price transparency.

Winner: Eden
Eden takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 91/100 to 87/100 (grade A− vs B+). People who prioritize a vetted, high-transparency provider over the lowest sticker price. Sesame Care still earns its place — shoppers who want genuine FDA-approved brand-name GLP-1s and the ability to pick their own provider and see the price up front, rather than one fixed compounded program.
Neither of these is our overall #1. That title goes to CoreAge Rx (94/100) — the most honest middle of the market: nationwide access, both molecules at one flat, no-surprise price.

Eden
What we like
- High verification confidence — clear supply-chain and clinician disclosure
- Nationwide availability
- Both molecules offered
The caveats
- Premium pricing vs the cheapest tiers
- Compounded only — no brand-name access
- FDA issued a warning letter to Eden Health International Inc. dba Eden in June 2026; it is public in FDA's warning-letter database
Sesame Care
What we like
- Real FDA-approved brand-name access — Wegovy pen and pill, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro and Rybelsus
- Established platform (operating since 2018) with LegitScript, BBB accreditation and large third-party review volume
- You choose the provider and see the price up front — genuine marketplace transparency
- Oral routes available (Wegovy pill, Rybelsus)
The caveats
- A generalist marketplace, not a dedicated weight-loss program — lighter ongoing hand-holding than a specialist desk
- Two-part cost (a platform subscription plus the medication) makes the true monthly total harder to compare
- Brand-name cash prices can run high without insurance
