Pros & Cons

Mint Med

What we like

  • $159 flat 'all doses' pricing — no per-tier escalation as you titrate up, unlike competitors that start cheap then jump past $200
  • No membership — pay-as-you-go monthly, cancel anytime with 48-hour notice
  • LegitScript Certified with a verifiable ID
  • Publishes the FDA compounded-medication disclaimer
  • 36 states listed explicitly — strong coverage
  • HSA/FSA eligible (uncommon for compounded GLP-1)
  • Asynchronous telehealth in eligible states for faster intake; intro promo (175NOW) ≈ $117/mo for the first six weeks

Watch-outs

  • Easily confused with Mint Medical Clinic (a separate Utah-only med spa)
  • 503A/503B pharmacy partner not named, and the compounding designation isn't specified
  • Named medical director / clinical leadership not disclosed
  • Corporate legal entity not disclosed
  • Governing law, arbitration venue, and physical address not disclosed
  • Marketing says 35 states but lists 36 — minor inconsistency
  • Asynchronous model means limited live-provider interaction in eligible states

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)
