Luna Fit
Sesame Care
Ranked #8 · Grade B+
What we like
- Real FDA-approved brand-name access — Wegovy pen and pill, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro and Rybelsus
- Established platform (operating since 2018) with LegitScript, BBB accreditation and large third-party review volume
- You choose the provider and see the price up front — genuine marketplace transparency
The caveats
- A generalist marketplace, not a dedicated weight-loss program — lighter ongoing hand-holding than a specialist desk
- Two-part cost (a platform subscription plus the medication) makes the true monthly total harder to compare
- Brand-name cash prices can run high without insurance
Luna Fit
Vaylen
Ranked #7 · Grade B+
What we like
- Offers an oral/sublingual route as well as injections — real choice for the needle-averse
- FDA-approved brand access plus compounded on both molecules
- LegitScript-accredited and available in all 50 states
The caveats
- Mid-tier pricing rather than the cheapest tiers
- Broad program rather than a dedicated PCOS/hormone clinic
