Rivo Health
What we like
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as both injections and oral options, starting around $149/mo (sema) and $199/mo (tirz)
- Bundles dietitians, live workouts, support groups and mental-health coaching with the medication, not just a prescription
- Insurance concierge to maximize coverage, FSA/HSA eligible, with multi-month plans that cut the price further

Watch-outs
- Uses partner compounding pharmacies it doesn't name on the site
- Headline prices are Spring-sale rates — everyday cost is higher and the deepest discounts need a 6-month commitment
- Weight loss is one of several verticals (ED, longevity, sleep, hair, skin), not a single focus
- Some bundled perks (e.g. meal prep) are paid add-ons rather than included
