Head-to-head comparison
Lean Meds vs OrderlyMeds
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
Lean Meds publishes its whole price ladder in the open — both molecules, every plan length — and names the four pharmacies that dispense it, which most sellers in this category never do.
$79/mo sema · $109/mo tirz · Verified September 2026
Marked down on: The advertised $49 is the twelve-month tier rather than the month-to-month rate of $79, and tirzepatide runs the same gap between $95 and $109.
Desk Score
OrderlyMeds is a telehealth provider selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide with no membership fees or hidden costs.
$74/mo (promo rate) sema · $299/mo tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: The $74 rate is a two-month starter plan billed as $149 up front, and it is open only to patients new to GLP-1 medication; the standing monthly rate is $149
