About Green Cap Health

Green Cap Health is a Texas-only telehealth practice with a vertically integrated model: it is both the prescribing clinical practice and the in-house compounding pharmacy, so prescriptions are filled under one roof rather than through a separate partner. Alongside compounded semaglutide it offers hair, skincare, and sexual-wellness products. The GLP-1 weight-loss injection starts at $79 the first month.

Pros & Cons

Green Cap Health

What we like

  • Vertically integrated — it is both the clinical practice and its own 503A Texas compounding pharmacy, a clear supply chain
  • Aggressive $79 first-month intro pricing, competitive despite being Texas-only
  • Texas patients can consolidate GLP-1, hair, skin, and sexual wellness under one practice
  • Phone support published with a Houston area code
  • Same-day provider review, faster than 24–48hr competitors

Watch-outs

  • Texas only — patients in the other 49 states and DC can't use it
  • No tirzepatide — semaglutide only, so those wanting the higher-magnitude option must look elsewhere
  • LegitScript certification status not disclosed
  • No named medical director — only "doctors, nurse practitioners, and pharmacists"
  • FDA compounded-medication disclaimer not visible on the homepage
  • Corporate legal entity not disclosed
  • $79 is a first-month intro price — refill/standard pricing isn't published

NewSelf

What we like

  • Semaglutide+ from $99.97/mo — among the lowest prices in the dataset
  • All dosages at the same price — no price escalation as dose increases
  • LegitScript certified with 503A licensed pharmacies
  • Third-party potency, sterility, and endotoxicity testing
  • 48 states + Puerto Rico coverage
  • B12/B6 + Glycine enhanced formulations
  • No membership fees

Watch-outs

  • Not available in Mississippi and Louisiana
  • Compounded only — no brand-name options
  • Site also promotes AI health optimization and longevity (broader platform)
