Pros & Cons Compared

FeelGood

Pros

+Compounded semaglutide injection from $149/mo with free shipping and no separate membership or consultation fee
+Offers an oral compounded semaglutide tablet ($249/mo) for needle-averse patients — a non-injectable route only a handful of platforms provide
+LegitScript-approved — independent certification that the telehealth/pharmacy operation meets legal and safety standards, which many budget compounded shops lack
+Money-back weight-loss guarantee plus unlimited 24/7 messaging and appointments included

Cons

−Does NOT publicly disclose which US states it serves — you can't confirm availability in your state before starting an intake
−$149 is a 'starting' price (dose-escalating), not flat across all doses — your cost can rise as your dose titrates up, and FeelGood doesn't publish the full dose-by-dose schedule
−Brand-name 'original' semaglutide injection at $1,999/mo is far above market — NovoCare direct Wegovy is $349/mo and Hers offers Wegovy at $149/mo via the 2026 Novo Nordisk partnership. Never buy brand-name through FeelGood
−No named medical director, prescribing physicians, compounding pharmacy, founding year, or headquarters disclosed on the site — thin corporate and clinical transparency
−Self-reported '4.8/5' rating is not tied to a named third-party platform (no linked Trustpilot/BBB), so it can't be independently verified; the advertised '15–20% weight loss' figures are FeelGood's marketing, not FDA-reviewed efficacy data
−Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved (none are) — and FeelGood offers compounded semaglutide only, no tirzepatide

Sesame Care

Pros

+Success by Sesame program launched 2026 — $59/mo on a 3/6/12-month plan, bundles labs, unlimited messaging, and provider choice
+Brand-name cash pricing is competitive — Wegovy pen $199 intro / $349 ongoing, Zepbound vial $299, Wegovy pill $149
+Foundayo (Lilly's FDA-approved oral GLP-1) available as of April 2026 at $149/mo
+Original pay-per-visit model still available at $25/consultation for users who just need a prescriber

Cons

−Membership model adds complexity — two distinct products (pay-per-visit vs Success membership) can be confusing
−Success by Sesame requires a 3-month minimum commitment to hit the $59/mo rate
−Compounded meds are de-emphasized on the current marketing — focus has shifted to FDA-approved brand-name paths
−Less hand-holding than dedicated subscription platforms like Willow or Sprout Health

Our Verdict

Sesame Care edges out FeelGood with a score of 7.9/10 vs 7/10. If budget is your priority, Sesame Care starts at $99/mo compared to FeelGood's $149/mo. Sesame Care accepts insurance, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs. Choose FeelGood if you want: budget-conscious cash-pay patients who want low-cost compounded semaglutide — injection or oral tablet — with free shipping, no membership fees, and a money-back weight-loss guarantee. Choose Sesame Care if you want: users who want cheap fda-approved brand-name glp-1 access ($149-349/mo wegovy and zepbound via success by sesame), or insured patients who just need a prescriber.
