Pros & Cons Compared

GoodRx Care

Pros

+2026 subscription rewrite, $119/mo standard membership with medication priced among the lowest on the market
+Wegovy/Ozempic intro pricing ($199/mo for first 2 fills) is market-leading for brand-name access
+Oral Wegovy pill available at $149-199/mo, one of the cheapest oral semaglutide routes
+Insurance accepted, GoodRx's integration with savings cards can stack with coverage

Cons

−Model changed from pay-per-visit to subscription, users expecting à-la-carte pricing should double-check current terms
−Compounded GLP-1s are de-emphasized on current marketing, may no longer be available
−Subscription model means ongoing monthly fee even in maintenance months
−Follow-up clinical care is still basic compared to dedicated GLP-1 platforms

PeterMD

Pros

+Flat $165/mo at all dose levels, price doesn't increase as you titrate up to maintenance doses
+100,000+ patient base with 4.9/5 Trustpilot rating from 14,000+ reviews, strong social proof
+Semaglutide + B12 formulation helps reduce nausea, the most common GLP-1 side effect
+Video consultations with physicians included, real face-to-face medical oversight

Cons

−Available in 42 states, not all 50 (8 states are excluded). Check your state during signup before planning around PeterMD.
−Not BBB accredited, and some documented complaints cite delayed medication fulfillment. Order refills ahead of your last dose rather than at the last minute.
−PeterMD began as a testosterone replacement therapy platform; GLP-1 is an expansion, not the original core. The included video consultations give you a direct read on the clinical team.
