Short answer: MEDVi scores higher on our rubric, 5.7/10 against 4.2/10. Full reasoning, pricing and the cases where the other one wins are below.

MEDVi beats Trimi Health overall, scoring 5.7/10 vs 4.2/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: MEDVi is $179 first month, then $299/mo; Trimi Health is $175/mo month-to-month. Choose MEDVi for users who want both oral and injectable compounded options in one telehealth program. Choose Trimi Health for cash-pay patients who want the cheapest flat-price compounded semaglutide we track ($99/mo on the annual plan) and will accept a weak trustpilot record plus no-pro-rating cancellation terms in exchange.

Pros & Cons Compared

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 covers the first month of compounded semaglutide on the current Katalys landing, including clinician review, medication and 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: 4.4/5 across roughly 11,000 Trustpilot reviews, but an F and no accreditation at the BBB
  • The $179 semaglutide price is introductory; the current Katalys landing says refills are $299/mo, making the first-year total $3,468 rather than $2,148
  • Brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound paths add a $99 membership plus the medication cost, which the current landing does not publish; availability can change
  • No insurance accepted, and oral compounded semaglutide has less clinical data than injectable forms

Trimi Health

Pros

  • +$99/mo compounded semaglutide on the annual plan (billed $1,188 once yearly) is among the cheapest flat recurring rates we track; tirzepatide annual is $125/mo ($1,500 yearly)
  • +Flat pricing across all doses, your monthly price does not rise as your dose titrates up
  • +Consult and overnight shipping included in the plan price, no add-on fees; HSA/FSA accepted, Klarna and Affirm financing available
  • +Named medical director, Dr. Sean Arora MD of the Arora Health medical group, most compounded-only platforms name no one
  • +Compounding pharmacies named: VialsRx (TX license #35264, site-claimed) and GreenwichRx, most competitors do not name theirs
  • +Available in all 50 states plus DC per trytrimi.com/states
  • +6-month money-back weight-loss promise published (conditions apply, read them before counting on it)

Cons

  • Trustpilot FELL from 4.6 earlier in 2026 to 3.4 across 71 reviews, ranking #62 of 70 in its category, recurring complaints cite account closures and withheld refunds
  • Once a prescription is signed, payments are final, no pro-rating, cancelling an annual plan mid-year forfeits the remainder. Full refund is available only BEFORE the prescription is signed
  • No legal entity disclosed, the site identifies only 'Trimi Health' with no LLC/Inc suffix and no street address (New York appears only in the site's schema markup)
  • Vial-and-syringe format only, no autoinjector pens, no oral option, no brand-name medications
  • LegitScript certification claimed but we could not verify it against LegitScript's registry
  • Mandatory arbitration clause in the terms
  • Retatrutide and orforglipron are listed as 'Preparing', roadmap items, not available today, do not enroll expecting them
  • Shares its medical group (Arora Health) and pharmacy (VialsRx) with Telos RX, a white-label backend relationship neither brand discloses on its own site

Our Verdict

MEDVi edges out Trimi Health with a score of 5.7/10 vs 4.2/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: MEDVi is $179 first month, then $299/mo; Trimi Health is $175/mo month-to-month. MEDVi offers both brand-name and compounded medications, giving you more flexibility.
