Pros & Cons Compared

Hone Health

Pros

+40+ biomarker lab panel included, the most comprehensive baseline testing of any GLP-1 telehealth provider
+Full health optimization platform covering hormones, longevity, and metabolic health beyond just weight loss
+Starts patients on gentler liraglutide before escalating, reduces first-week side effect severity
+Both compounded and potentially brand-name GLP-1 options available depending on clinical assessment

Cons

−Layered pricing: $65 initial consult + $149/mo membership + medication cost = $300-650/mo total, one of the most expensive options
−Select state availability, not available nationwide, and coverage varies by specific treatment program
−The $149/mo membership fee is required even before you can purchase any medication

MEDVi

Pros

+One of the few compounded providers offering both oral tablets and injectable semaglutide
+Micro-dosing options available, can start at sub-standard doses for patients concerned about side effects
+Sleek onboarding experience with clear progress tracking through their patient portal
+$179/mo is competitive for a platform with both oral and injectable compounded formulations

Cons

−No brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound on the platform (the 2026 expansion added branded Ozempic only)
−No insurance accepted, and oral compounded semaglutide has less clinical data than injectable forms; you can switch to injectable anytime at no extra fee if results lag
