Grade B · #19Strut Health
The only programme here selling the same molecule as a lozenge or an injection at the same price — the needle is genuinely optional.

Winner: Invigor Medical
Invigor Medical takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 88/100 to 84/100 (grade B+ vs B). Patients who want GLP-1 care alongside a wider wellness/hormone program. Strut Health still earns its place — anyone whose real objection is the needle rather than the medicine, and who wants every route priced on the page before signing up.
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.

Strut Health
What we like
- Sublingual lozenges for both molecules — semaglutide from $99/mo, tirzepatide from $199/mo, the same price as the injection
- Every route and its auto-refill saving is published on the product page rather than revealed inside an intake
- Cancel, pause or delay a subscription yourself with 48 hours' notice before processing
- Free online physician visit, free shipping and free follow-up care included rather than added at checkout
The caveats
- Asynchronous by design — their FAQ notes some states do not require a phone consultation, so you may never speak to the prescriber
- Compounded only, with no brand-name pathway
- No published lab or monitoring programme
- Not available in Arkansas
Invigor Medical
What we like
- Mid-market pricing on both molecules
- Long-running operator with a broad catalog
The caveats
- Does not publish an explicit states-served list
- Compounded only
