Pros & Cons

Hone Health

What we like

  • Liraglutide costs $160 a month
  • Shows its price before the medical questionnaire, so you can compare it without handing over health information
  • We found no FDA warning letters issued to Hone Health
  • A live video visit with a clinician is required before a prescription, which is slower than a form and is the more careful intake
  • Baseline bloodwork is required before a prescription

Watch-outs

  • Confirm it serves your state before you start the intake
  • Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
  • Its liraglutide is compounded rather than FDA-approved, so it has not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality

WeightWatchers

What we like

  • We found no FDA warning letters issued to WeightWatchers

Watch-outs

  • Orforglipron costs $299 a month, 101% above the $149 median for brand-name orforglipron across the sellers we compare

  • Confirm it serves your state before you start the intake
  • Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
