Cons

−Membership and medication billed separately — the $49/mo number is just the membership, not all-in
−Brand-name Wegovy ($1,599) and Ozempic ($1,199) cash prices are high — read as access, not value

MangoRx

Cons

−$299/mo for oral semaglutide is 2-3x the cost of injectable alternatives at $99-149/mo
−Early-stage public company with limited revenue — stock performance reflects financial uncertainty
−Only oral tablet format available — no injectable options if you want higher bioavailability
