Head-to-head comparison
Andrew Meds vs California Trim Clinic
Two GLP-1 providers, one scorecard. Both are graded on the same six Desk Score dimensions — here is how they stack up, and which one fits you.
Desk Score
Andrew Meds prices both molecules openly and says which 44 states can be treated by questionnaire alone — then routes every Get Started button on its semaglutide page to a different, cheaper program.
From $199/mo sema · From $299/mo tirz · Verified September 2026
Marked down on: Every Get Started button on the compounded semaglutide page opens a microdosing program at $99 a month, and that word appears nowhere else on the site.
Desk Score
California Trim Clinic is a Westlake Village CA peptide and longevity clinic selling compounded semaglutide from $199 a month and compounded tirzepatide from $299, on a three-month commitment, by telehealth in all 50 states.
From $199/mo sema · From $299/mo tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: Both headline figures are floors — "starting at" — and no dose ladder is published, so what a higher dose costs is unknown until you are on it
Andrew Meds takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 79/100 (C+) against 72/100 (C) for California Trim Clinic. California Trim Clinic still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
