Marked down on: 503A/503B pharmacy partner not named
Desk Score
A LegitScript-certified compounded GLP-1 telehealth brand with flat, openly published pricing — semaglutide from $88/mo, tirzepatide from $157/mo — plus a separate peptide-therapy program (NAD+, and per the live site, sermorelin) under its own intake.
Marked down on: Injectable only for GLP-1 — no oral tablet route on semaglutide or tirzepatide, despite a generic "Injections and oral options available" line in one landing page's hero that matches nothing else on the site
Sunlight takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 84/100 (B) against 61/100 (C) for Factor Health MD. Factor Health MD still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
