Pros & Cons

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)

The Edit

What we like

  • Publishes a real LegitScript seal (ID 51177190) and names both its dispensing pharmacy and its prescribing medical practice.
  • Charges the same price at every dose, so titrating up does not raise the monthly cost.
  • Nothing is charged to start, with no card on file, and a full refund if a clinician decides treatment is not appropriate.
  • Prices are published on every treatment page rather than gated behind intake, in both English and Spanish.

Watch-outs

  • The $209/mo standing semaglutide rate sits above the market median; the $109 headline is a first-order promo, not the ongoing price.
  • The 3- and 6-month rates are billed once upfront ($575 and $1,065), not as a lower monthly charge.
  • Terms claim all 50 states but also say availability is verified during consultation and may vary, so coverage is not guaranteed.
  • Cancellation ends at the close of the current billing period and part-used periods are not pro-rated or refunded.
