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 NovoCare's Wegovy pen $199/mo for the first two 0.25 mg or 0.5 mg fills through December 31, 2026, then $349/mo at standard strengths or $399/mo for Wegovy HD; oral pill from $149/mo, dose-dependent, and Hims/Hers pill medication from $149 or pen from $199 plus required membership. 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

SkinnyRx

Pros

+Five medication formats, the broadest compounded-GLP-1 menu in DTC telehealth, including the rare oral tirzepatide tablet that almost no competitor offers
+$199/mo entry price for both injectable and sublingual semaglutide is competitive in the mid-tier compounded segment
+Fast onboarding: 5-10 minute online questionnaire, physician review in 24-48 hours, medication delivered in 3-7 business days with temperature-controlled shipping
+4,100+ Trustpilot reviews at 4.8 stars, among the strongest aggregate social-proof signals in the GLP-1 telehealth category

Cons

−No brand-name FDA-approved options (Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro), so patients who want or need an FDA-approved finished product should buy elsewhere
−Light public disclosure: founders, executive team, medical director, and specific compounding-pharmacy partners are not named on the public site, ask support before enrolling if provenance matters to you
−Cash-pay only, does not bill commercial insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. HSA/FSA payments are accepted, which is the main way to soften the cost.
−Independent reviews flag inconsistent customer-service responsiveness, a real consideration since titration support and dose adjustments run through chat
−FDA warning letter #717989, issued February 20, 2026 to Lean Rx, Inc. dba SkinnyRx, cites misleading labels and website claims for compounded GLP-1s. It is a labeling/marketing record, not an unsafe-medication finding

Our Verdict

FeelGood edges out SkinnyRx with a score of 7/10 vs 5.3/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: FeelGood is from $149/mo; SkinnyRx is from $199/mo. FeelGood offers both brand-name and compounded medications, giving you more flexibility.

Cheapest complete recurring price in our index

Eden Health GLP-1

$99/mo month-to-month, from $34 on a plan · 6.9/10 · Both

Across all 53 providers in our index, the lowest price with affirmative medication, consultation, and shipping inclusion is Eden Health GLP-1 at $99/mo, price checked August 28, 2026. It scores 6.9/10 and is not the highest-scored provider in our full rankings, so this is a cost floor rather than a recommendation. Worth knowing before you decide.
