Visit Peptivo →Two GLP-1 Providers chasing the same patients, trading off price, geography and what lands in the box differently. On our scoring, Embody starts at $79/mo, and Embody finishes ahead, 9.3 to 5.2. What follows: the prices, what each plan actually covers, the six-dimension score, where each one is weak, and who should pick which.
Pricing
Embody
Checkout: '$79/mo flat forever' (strikethrough $299); bundles $76/$73/$69 per month on 3/6/12-mo. CAVEAT: T&C list price is $199/mo — the $79 depends on the auto-applied SUMMER promo marketed as permanently locked; Trustpilot complaints allege the lock was not always honored.
Checkout tile 'Flat rate at $119/month (strikethrough $349)'; homepage 'starting at $129/month'; bundles $126/$123/$119 per month.
New oral semaglutide $229/mo.

About Embody
Embody sells compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide by injection, plus a compounded oral tirzepatide gum that is unique in the category. Flat-rate pricing is aggressive, coverage runs to all 50 states, and clinician messaging is available 24/7 under a board-certified internal medicine CMO.
Read our full Embody review →About Peptivo
Peptivo sells its weight-loss offer as two named products rather than as drugs: 'GLP-1 Daily Support' opens at $169, 'Weight Loss Boost' at $249. Brand Ozempic, Wegovy and Zepbound can also be written. The compounded material is made in the USA at labs the site calls FDA-registered. Provider visits happen the same day and 24/7 messaging never closes. Delivery is free and discreet; FSA/HSA money qualifies. Everything is 100% online. Privacy and terms pages exist, yet nobody names the compounding pharmacy or the legal entity, and no LegitScript certification appears.

Embody
What we like
- Semaglutide at $79 a month, 58% below the $189 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Tirzepatide at $129 a month, 52% below the $267 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Publishes a price on its own site before the medical questionnaire, so it can be compared without handing over health information
- The monthly figure covers medication, consult, shipping
- Coverage is published for all 50 states
- Names 4 dispensing pharmacies, which most sellers in this register do not do
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
- Both oral and injectable options are on record, so the format is a choice rather than a condition
Watch-outs
- Its semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
Peptivo
What we like
- Publishes a price on its own site before the medical questionnaire, so it can be compared without handing over health information
- The monthly figure covers medication, consult, shipping
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
Watch-outs
- No state list is on record here, so whether it serves your state cannot be confirmed from this page
- No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
Our Verdict
Embody takes it, 9.3 against 5.2, and it is especially strong on knowing which pharmacy fills the vial — it names RedRock Pharmacy. Peptivo is no weak second and may fit you better on seeing what it charges before you answer any medical questions.
