What to weigh against each
NexLife: Compounded medication only; no brand-name Zepbound, Mounjaro, Wegovy or Ozempic and no insurance billing. Cancellation requires 30 days' notice rather than immediate cancellation.

Dispensing pharmacy and state coverage are not yet independently verified in our database. Microdose protocols are a marketing category with no clinical-trial evidence base.
Willow: Named in Eli Lilly's 2025 litigation over compounded tirzepatide marketing. Pricing pending verification.
How to read this comparison
Both providers were scored with the same rubric and the same cost model. Rankings never use the advertised monthly price on its own, because a low first-month number can hide a membership fee or a dose-based increase. Where a provider's price has not been directly checked against its own site, we say so and do not rank it on cost. Compounded tirzepatide and semaglutide are not FDA-approved; the only FDA-approved products are Zepbound, Mounjaro, Wegovy, Ozempic and Rybelsus. See the methodology and important safety information.
