Goldspan Health

⛔ Same 4-week cycle: 'a new monthly supply arrives automatically every 4 weeks' — about $3,887/yr across 13 charges, not $3,588. Price published only on the altroapp.com storefront.

Goldspan Health
What we like

- Both GLP-1 molecules offered, each pairable with B12 or glycine, plus microdose and sublingual variants
- Subscription can be paused, delayed or canceled at any time
- Free discreet shipping on every delivery
Watch-outs
- Prices appear nowhere on goldspanhealth.com — you must click through to a third-party storefront to see any figure
- Billed every 4 weeks while advertised as monthly, which is 13 charges a year rather than 12
- Among the more expensive compounded GLP-1s we track at $229 and $299
- The homepage claims 'In 50 states' but the terms say some therapies are unavailable in certain states
