Kongo
What we like
- Among the lowest compounded GLP-1 prices: semaglutide $119/month and tirzepatide $229/month
- Available in all 50 states with no membership fee, and provider, supplies, and free shipping always included
- Verifiable LegitScript certification (seal ID 45229340)
- Fast and simple: 4-minute intake with no video call and provider approval within 24 hours
- Also offers longevity treatments (NAD+, sermorelin, glutathione) if you want more than GLP-1
Watch-outs
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved (the site discloses this) — not brand Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, or Mounjaro
- The compounding pharmacy is described only as a 'licensed US pharmacy' and not named
- Newer brand; member testimonials are the main social proof
- Some verticals (Longevity, Intimacy) are still listed as 'coming soon'
Vytora Health
What we like
- All 50 states plus DC, with per-state video-vs-audio compliance disclosed
- Both compounded and brand-name options on one platform — uncommon
- LegitScript Approved and HIPAA compliant
- Pharmacy partners named publicly: Vials Pharmacy (TX) and Greenwich Biosciences
- Operating entity disclosed: Wasef Health, PC (Pinellas Park, FL)
- Competitive monthly pricing ($180 sema / $249 tirz) plus a 3-month bundle saving 17%
- Brand-name Mounjaro and Zepbound available at $1,399/mo for FDA-approved options
Watch-outs
- Brand-name Mounjaro/Zepbound at $1,399/mo is near retail — insured patients may do better via LillyDirect Self Pay ($449-$699/mo)
- Compounded tirzepatide at $249/mo is mid-market, above the $149-199 floor
- Dose tiers aren't broken out — 'all doses included' means low-dose patients pay the same as high-dose
- Initial consultation cost not shown on the public pricing page
- Limited per-prescriber state licensure detail
