In our scoring, Elara Health and Wellness starts lower at $117/mo versus $119/mo, and Oak is the option we'd start with for most patients. Below we break down pricing, what each plan covers, the six-dimension score, pros and cons, and exactly who should pick which.

Hero + product card: 'Semaglutide from $119' / 'Most Affordable Semaglutide As low as $119 /mo'. Old code OAKNEW50 no longer on site; a '$200 off — new patient offer' is advertised with no published terms or resulting price (quiz-gated), so promo price is not published.

Pros & Cons

Oak

What we like

  • Both compounded semaglutide ($119/mo) and tirzepatide ($185/mo) on a single platform
  • $200-off new-patient offer advertised — final discounted price is shown after the intake quiz
  • LegitScript-certified pharmacy network
  • No video call required for initial approval; flat per-month pricing across all dose strengths

Watch-outs

  • Pharmacy partners are not publicly named on the marketing site (material gap for YMYL disclosure)
  • Operates in 45 states per Terms of Use, but the public state list is gated behind the signup intake
  • No brand-name Wegovy / Zepbound / Mounjaro / Ozempic available — compounded only
  • Fees are non-refundable per Terms of Use; binding arbitration under Delaware law

Elara Health and Wellness

What we like

  • Corporate parent disclosed (JTE Medical, LLC) — rare transparency for a DTC GLP-1 platform
  • Four named 503A pharmacy partners with city/state — among the most pharmacy-transparent providers we've reviewed
  • Bundled care model: quarterly labs, physician visits, coaching, and 24/7 messaging without a membership fee
  • Publishes the FDA compounded-medication disclaimer
  • All 50 states plus DC, with explicit coverage language
  • Substantial annual-plan savings ($792/yr semaglutide, $858/yr tirzepatide)
  • Self-service cancellation on monthly and quarterly plans

Watch-outs

  • LegitScript certification status not disclosed
  • No named medical director or physician leadership
  • Annual plan requires a 12-month commitment; early-cancellation terms not detailed
  • Governing law / arbitration venue not disclosed
  • 503A patient-specific compounding only — no 503B option
