Pros & Cons Compared

Direct Meds GLP-1

Pros

  • +The published $297/mo compounded semaglutide injection tier includes medication, consultations, shipping, and pharmacy fees
  • +Format-specific prices are published on the site, which makes the advertised medication and service bundle easier to compare
  • +Fast pharmacy fulfillment: most orders ship within 48 hours of provider approval
  • +Responsive customer support with live chat available during business hours

Cons

  • Compounded medications only, no brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, or Ozempic on the menu
  • The $297/mo injectable semaglutide rate sits above Henry Meds ($199) and TrimRx (starting at $179); Direct Meds' own sublingual semaglutide drops at $179 are the budget path if the premium stings
  • BBB shows 248 complaints and roughly 1.1/5 customer-review stars, with recurring reports of unauthorized charges, cancellation difficulty, billing confusion, and unfulfilled or delayed orders

Mochi Health

Pros

  • +Registered dietitians included alongside physicians, not just medication, but nutritional support
  • +Both compounded and brand-name medications available (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, Rybelsus)

Cons

  • Separate $79/mo membership fee makes the real cost ~$178/mo for semaglutide, not the advertised $99
  • No refunds for payments made over 30 days ago, limited consumer protection window
  • Relatively new company (founded 2022) with less track record than established platforms
