MEDVi beats Luvo Health overall, scoring 5.7/10 vs 2.4/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: Luvo Health is from $249/mo; MEDVi is $179 first month, then $299/mo.

Luvo Health

#34 of 34

2.4/10

Luvo Health is a multi-service telehealth clinic running weight loss beside microdosing, longevity, skincare, hormone replacement and testosterone. Its GLP-1 line covers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injections, compounded semaglutide tablets, and brand Ozempic and Zepbound, each with its own page and published price. Pricing is headlined per week and billed in 4-week cycles, with 12, 24 and 52-week plans published as single totals, and the brand rates are among the highest we track.

MEDVi offers a weekly compounded GLP-1 injection and a daily compounded tablet. The injection is $179 for month one and $299 for refills. Trustpilot is 4.3 out of 5 across 14,680 reviews, while BBB is F/not accredited. FDA warning letter #721455 concerns misleading labeling and marketing, not an allegation that the medication was unsafe.

Pros & Cons Compared

Luvo Health

Pros

+Publishes a price on every medication page and a full 4-week grid on /pricing, with no intake required to see either
+Three compounded formats including oral semaglutide tablets, plus a dedicated microdosing line with its own products
+Cancel any time, with a published refund policy
+Names its four compounding pharmacies in the terms, with street addresses and phone numbers, and displays a LegitScript approval seal in the site footer
+Will transfer your prescription to any licensed pharmacy you choose, in writing, and coordinates it for you. Most compounded programs we track lock you to their own pharmacy

Cons

−Brand pricing is the highest we track: on its pricing page Ozempic is $1,299 and Zepbound $1,399 per 4-week cycle, against NovoCare self-pay at $349, and neither brand qualifies for the longer-plan discounts the compounded products get
−Prices are headlined per week and billed per 4-week cycle, so a 4-week charge lands 13 times a year rather than 12; the 12, 24 and 52-week plans are priced as one total instead, so compare totals rather than weekly rates
−The cheapest weekly rates need a full year paid as one total: on its pricing page semaglutide injection is $45 a week only as a $2,327 52-week plan, and tirzepatide $67 a week only as a $3,497 52-week plan
−No medical director and no individual prescribing clinician is named; the terms name OpenLoop Healthcare Partners as a clinical partner, but not the clinician who would review your file
−Four compounding pharmacies are named in the terms, but which one fills your prescription is disclosed only in your order confirmation, so you cannot pick the pharmacy before you buy
−Luvo Health, Inc. is named in the terms, but no street address or phone number is shown on the site's contact, about, terms or FAQ pages (rendered check 2026-09-03), and support is email only
−Refunds close earlier than cancel any time suggests: cancellation needs 72 hours notice before the billing date, and once the prescription reaches the pharmacy no refund is available, which for a new patient with no video visit is the moment the intake is submitted

MEDVi

Pros

+One of the few compounded providers offering both oral tablets and injectable semaglutide
+The landing page says the program is HSA and FSA eligible and includes dietician visits and care coaching, with a footnote making that subject to insurance and copay eligibility
+Sleek onboarding experience with clear progress tracking through their patient portal
+$179 covers the first month of compounded semaglutide on MEDVi's landing page, including physician review, the personalized plan, medication and free shipping

Cons

−FDA warning letter #721455, issued February 20, 2026, cites misleading labeling and marketing that implied MEDVi compounded the drugs and that compounded products were equivalent to or FDA-evaluated like approved brands. The letter does not allege unsafe medication
−Its third-party records conflict: 4.3 out of 5 across 14,680 Trustpilot reviews with 12 percent of them at one star, against an F and no accreditation at the BBB
−The $179 semaglutide price covers month one only; the FAQ on MEDVi's own landing page says refills are locked in at $299 a month, making the first year $3,468 rather than $2,148
−Brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound paths add a $99 membership plus a medication cost the page does not publish, and the same page's hero says "No membership or hidden fees!" directly above those cards; availability is subject to change
−No insurance accepted, and oral compounded semaglutide has less clinical data than injectable forms

Our Verdict

MEDVi edges out Luvo Health with a score of 5.7/10 vs 2.4/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: Luvo Health is from $249/mo; MEDVi is $179 first month, then $299/mo.

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

Both Luvo Health and MEDVi start above the cheapest complete recurring program we track. Across all 34 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.
