Pros & Cons

Amazon One Medical

What we like

  • As low as $1/day ($25/month) for brand-name Foundayo with insurance and the auto-applied Lilly coupon
  • Same-day delivery in nearly 3,000 US cities at launch, expanding to 4,500 by end of 2026
  • In-office pharmacist kiosks at select One Medical clinics let you walk out with Foundayo in hand
  • Cash-pay $5/day ($149/month) is competitive for the same FDA-approved brand-name product
  • Real-time availability, transparent pricing, and automatic manufacturer coupon at checkout
  • Delivering GLP-1 medications since 2021 — track record on cold-chain logistics

Watch-outs

  • Headline $25/month needs both insurance and the Lilly Savings Card — uninsured pay $149/month
  • Same-day delivery is geographically gated; outside major cities it drops to next-day or slower
  • Pricing is set by manufacturer savings programs and can change at any time
  • No compounded options — brand-name only (Foundayo, Wegovy, Zepbound)
  • Wegovy/Zepbound pricing isn't shown upfront — depends on insurance at the prescribing visit
  • Copays and deductibles still apply to the clinical visit

Chia

What we like

  • Month-to-month prices sit on each product page before the quiz: $349/mo for semaglutide and $399/mo for tirzepatide
  • Free shipping, and HSA/FSA cards are accepted at checkout
  • Full refund before your provider review, before your first shipment, or if a provider finds you ineligible
  • First-time weight-loss customers on a monthly plan get a 30-day money-back guarantee, with conditions
  • Reachable by phone as well as email, unlike many email-only telehealth brands
  • Tirzepatide comes as a weekly injection or a daily tablet, and peptides like NAD+ and sermorelin are on the same account

Watch-outs

  • The "from $249/mo" headline is the 6-month committed plan; month-to-month is $349 for semaglutide and $399 for tirzepatide
  • The "Save 50%" and "Save 45%" badges do not match the prices shown beside them
  • Neither the prescribing medical group nor the compounding pharmacies are named in its terms or policies
  • The footer names Chia Health, Inc., while the terms and refund policy name Zerolimit Tech LLC as the operator
  • Committed plans auto-renew for the same length, and canceling early reprices the months you received at the monthly rate
  • Claims LegitScript certification, but no record could be confirmed in LegitScript's public directory
  • On-site ratings of 4.8 and 4.9 stars sit beside a Trustpilot profile with six reviews at 4.1
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved
