Trade-offs

Strengths and cautions compared

Enhance MD

Pros

  • +Same price at every dose, so titrating up does not raise the monthly bill. GLP-1 Core is $212/mo on the 12-month plan and $249/mo month to month (verified 2026-09-03)
  • +The monthly price covers lab work, the video visit with a provider, medication from a partner pharmacy and 2-day shipping, with no separate consultation fee
  • +Support is staffed seven days a week, Monday to Friday 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM EDT and Saturday to Sunday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM EDT, by phone and email
1 more documented strengths
  • +Four compounded GLP-1 options including a capped 1mg microdosing tirzepatide plan at $169/mo, plus a full refund of the initial payment if a provider finds you ineligible during onboarding

Cons

  • −The $212/mo headline is the 12-month plan, billed every 48 weeks. Paying month to month costs $249/mo on the GLP-1 Core pricing page (verified 2026-09-03)
  • −Compounded only. Every GLP-1 product page states the formulation is not FDA-approved and is compounded under federal Section 503A guidelines, and no brand-name product is sold
  • −Not nationwide. The FAQ lists 40 states plus DC and leaves out Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Dakota, South Carolina and Tennessee
1 more documented cautions
  • −Cash pay with no same-day start: a Quest Diagnostics blood draw and a scheduled video visit both come before a prescription, and no insurance option is shown on the site's pricing, FAQ or terms pages (rendered check 2026-09-03)

MEDVi

Pros

  • +One of the few compounded providers offering both oral tablets and injectable semaglutide
  • +The landing page says the program is HSA and FSA eligible and includes dietician visits and care coaching, with a footnote making that subject to insurance and copay eligibility
  • +Sleek onboarding experience with clear progress tracking through their patient portal
1 more documented strengths
  • +$179 covers the first month of compounded semaglutide on MEDVi's landing page, including physician review, the personalized plan, medication and free shipping

Cons

  • −FDA warning letter #721455, issued February 20, 2026, cites misleading labeling and marketing that implied MEDVi compounded the drugs and that compounded products were equivalent to or FDA-evaluated like approved brands. The letter does not allege unsafe medication
  • −Its third-party records conflict: 4.3 out of 5 across 14,680 Trustpilot reviews with 12 percent of them at one star, against an F and no accreditation at the BBB
  • −The $179 semaglutide price covers month one only; the FAQ on MEDVi's own landing page says refills are locked in at $299 a month, making the first year $3,468 rather than $2,148
2 more documented cautions
  • −Brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound paths add a $99 membership plus a medication cost the page does not publish, and the same page's hero says "No membership or hidden fees!" directly above those cards; availability is subject to change
  • −No insurance accepted, and oral compounded semaglutide has less clinical data than injectable forms

Our Verdict

Enhance MD edges out MEDVi with a score of 7.8/10 vs 5.7/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: Enhance MD is from $212/mo; MEDVi is $179 first month, then $299/mo. MEDVi offers both brand-name and compounded medications, giving you more flexibility.
