What to watch for with bmiMD and Found

bmiMD

  • The $119/mo semaglutide headline is a 12-month plan billed $1,428 up front, and once your first order goes to the pharmacy, that payment is non-refundable if you cancel voluntarily; you can take the remaining shipments or convert their value to bmiMD credit. Paying one month at a time costs $159 for semaglutide and $249 for tirzepatide
  • Brand-name Zepbound, Ozempic and Mounjaro are sold but kept out of the site navigation, and their prices surface only inside the weight loss quiz at $233/mo, $249/mo and $249/mo. Ask for them by name if a brand-name drug is what you want
