Desk Score
A LegitScript-certified compounding platform whose pricing page prints every plan's total, per-month rate and renewal price — and whose renewals are cheaper than sign-up.

Marked down on: Compounded medications are not FDA-approved
Desk Score
Metabolyz is a nationwide GLP-1 telehealth platform offering three compounded programs — standard semaglutide.
