Desk Score breakdown
Each of the six scored dimensions. See the methodology.
What we like
- Compounded semaglutide from $149/mo and tirzepatide from $199/mo, plus a $129/mo microdose option
- Flat pricing — the same monthly cost at every dose as you titrate up
- All-inclusive: medication, unlimited 24/7 provider messaging, and free shipping bundled in
- Names its compounding pharmacy — Strive Pharmacy (licensed 503A)
- Available in all 50 states with same-day approvals
Where points come off
- Operates as a technology platform, not the medical provider itself
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved (the site discloses this honestly)
- Aggressive marketing results claims (e.g. '18% average', '93% kept it off') with 'results not typical' disclaimers
- Legal entity name not published (footer shows only 'Zera Health')
The bottom line — B−
Best for: Budget GLP-1 shoppers who want flat all-dose pricing and a named 503A pharmacy.
Zera Health ranks #39 of 542 providers scored — see #1, CoreAge Rx here.
