Alloy
Pros
- ✓Broadest GLP-1 formulary in our catalog: brand Wegovy + brand Zepbound + oral Wegovy + compounded semaglutide + compounded tirzepatide + compounded liraglutide

- ✓Brand-name Wegovy starting at $199/mo and compounded liraglutide starting at $80/mo cover both ends of the price/access spectrum
- ✓STARTGLP1 promo code knocks $50 off the first month per the public site
Cons
- ✗Not available in Louisiana or Mississippi (verified) — readers in those two states should be routed elsewhere
- ✗Initial consultation is $49 and is separate from medication cost — readers should know there's a non-refundable upfront fee
- ✗Menopause-specialty framing — best fit for women in menopause/perimenopause, not the right product for men or younger women whose primary need is weight loss
