We rank it fairly on the merits — it scores below the brand-name providers because compounded medication carries regulatory uncertainty, not because of our partnership.

It is not a generic or the same as Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound. Availability is now restricted since the FDA declared the shortages resolved — see our compounded semaglutide guide.
