Direct Meds

+Transparent cash-pay pricing with no hidden fees
+Integrated pharmacy for fast fulfillment
+Competitive GLP-1 pricing
−GLP-1 tiers carry a three-month billing commitment while the same pages display a Cancel Anytime badge
−Marketing site publishes only two of sixteen-plus prices, one of them only inside invisible schema markup; the real prices sit on a storefront the marketing pages never link to
−FDA warning letter (Sept 2025, ref 716822) — compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide cited as misbranded over claims that they contain the same active ingredient as the branded drugs

Pallas Health

+Detailed clinical-disclosure page names the operating entity, provider network (Lion MD), dispensing pharmacies and state-by-state visit rules
+Prices published for every product, including branded options (Wegovy pill, Foundayo, pens at cash rates)
+Broad catalog for a new entrant: compounded and branded GLP-1s, NAD+, sermorelin, glutathione, women's HRT, ED and prescription skincare
−Launched July 2026 with no public patient reviews, so service quality is unproven
−Billed every 4 weeks (13 charges a year); the $239 semaglutide renewal is well above the $139 first month
−A real-time video visit is required in 7 states plus DC, which adds friction for those patients
