About Elara Health and Wellness
Elara Health and Wellness is a physician-guided weight-loss platform offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injections across all 50 states plus DC. Its differentiator is a bundled care-team model — pricing includes medication, quarterly labs, physician visits, coaching, and 24/7 messaging, with four named 503A pharmacy partners disclosed. Semaglutide is $183/mo and tirzepatide $267/mo, with annual plans cutting cost further.

FlyteHealth is an obesity-medicine telehealth platform distributed mainly through employers, payers, and health plans, with care led by board-certified obesity-medicine physicians plus nurse practitioners, dietitians, and care coordinators. GLP-1s may be prescribed when appropriate, alongside non-GLP-1 anti-obesity drugs, labs, nutrition, and lifestyle support. It is not a direct cash-pay GLP-1 vendor, though individuals can access it via the MDsave/Tendo marketplace and a FlyteHealth Direct self-pay option. Reported outcomes include roughly 13 to 16 percent weight loss over twelve months.
