Pros & Cons Compared

Sesame Care

Pros

+Success by Sesame program launched 2026 — $59/mo on a 3/6/12-month plan, bundles labs, unlimited messaging, and provider choice
+Brand-name cash pricing is competitive — Wegovy pen $199 intro / $349 ongoing, Zepbound vial $299, Wegovy pill $149
+Foundayo (Lilly's FDA-approved oral GLP-1) available as of April 2026 at $149/mo
+Original pay-per-visit model still available at $25/consultation for users who just need a prescriber

Cons

−Membership model adds complexity — two distinct products (pay-per-visit vs Success membership) can be confusing
−Success by Sesame requires a 3-month minimum commitment to hit the $59/mo rate
−Compounded meds are de-emphasized on the current marketing — focus has shifted to FDA-approved brand-name paths
−Less hand-holding than dedicated subscription platforms like Willow or Eden Health

+Published average weight loss outcomes: 12-15% body weight at 6 months across their patient base

Cons

−$250/mo puts it in the upper-mid range — $90 more than Willow for a similar all-inclusive model
−No insurance accepted, and no superbill provided for FSA/HSA reimbursement
