Cheaper, but selling something else

200 companies here are cheaper than Direct Meds' $249/mo and do not price oral semaglutide at all. None of them is a swap: a cheaper price for a different drug is a different product, not a discount.

Collective $59/mo + $199/yr membershipCompounded semaglutide is $59 a month here and tirzepatide $69, held at every dose, on top of a $199 membership billed a year at a time. The page prints all three figures in the same answers.
Measured $79/moEvery card says "From $49/mo". On the brand plans that fee buys none of the medication, and only the home page tells you the drug costs another $149 to $449.
TeleClinic $79/moTeleClinic's semaglutide page charges $79 for one month with no commitment, and its tirzepatide page $149. Month two is where the pages disagree: the FAQ quotes a $199 standard semaglutide rate and $299 for tirzepatide, while the checkout cards say the intro rate is locked for the life of your membership.
Mondae $87/moMonth to month, Mondae charges $87 for compounded semaglutide and $126 for compounded tirzepatide, dose-flat and membership-free. The home page's “From $75” and “From $124” are three-month rates, $225 and $372 in total.
Sunlight $88/moSunlight's home page prices compounded semaglutide at $88 and tirzepatide at $157, as flat rates billed every 28 days with no membership. Two other Sunlight pages still say $179 and $259, and canceling after a clinician's review costs an $80 clinical fee.
Harbor $89/moHarbor lists compounded semaglutide at $89 a month and tirzepatide at $119, flat at every dose, with no membership and no minimum commitment. What it doesn't show is the plan behind the price: the same figures are labeled “As low as,” and billing can be monthly or quarterly depending on what's picked at checkout.
Revel RX $89/moCompounded semaglutide is $89 a month at Revel RX and compounded tirzepatide $155, the same at every dose and with no membership fee on top. Those are the only two prices the site publishes, and both are plain monthly rates.
LVNG RX $90/moLVNG RX lists compounded semaglutide from $90 a month and tirzepatide from $149, billed every 30 days with the provider visit, prescription and delivery included. The $90 sits under a “new patient offer” banner beside a crossed-out $249, and no dose table or later-month price is published.

192 more are on the cheapest board, which lists every molecule beside every price.

Why does Direct Meds cost $249?

It leads with $297/month for injections. No membership and no minimum term. It is a subscription, charged “every 30 days” with a heads-up 5 to 7 days before each charge, and you can cancel up to 48 hours before the next one. “Plans start at” also makes $297 a floor: no dose table is published. The whole ladder is on the Direct Meds cost page.
