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

Novera MD

What we like

  • Low advertised starting prices: compounded semaglutide from $94.31/mo and tirzepatide from $164.31/mo
  • The intake's first screen says month-to-month with cancel anytime, and HSA/FSA cards are accepted
  • Names its clinical network: independent licensed providers in the WizDoc provider network make every prescribing decision
  • The intake screens for the main GLP-1 safety exclusions, including pregnancy, thyroid cancer history and recent bariatric surgery
  • Hormone therapy, MIC + B12, NAD+, sermorelin and glutathione are sold under the same brand

Watch-outs

  • The "starting at" prices don't say which plan length they belong to; plan options and totals come only after the intake
  • The intake asks for your email and full name on its second screen, before any health question
  • No company or legal entity is named anywhere on the site, terms or privacy policy
  • The dispensing pharmacy is not named; the site says only that a state-licensed pharmacy in its network ships the medication
  • No refund policy is published in the terms; the intake only promises "Guaranteed or it's free" without the conditions
  • Shows a LegitScript seal, but no certification record could be confirmed in LegitScript's public directory
  • The domain dates from March 2026, yet the site claims 20K+ patients; testimonials praise products it doesn't sell
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved, and both formulas here include B12
