Embody
Partner
$229/mo
$79 a month for semaglutide is described at checkout as flat forever, and the terms alongside it name a different list price. Tirzepatide is $129. Both are low; both depend on a promotion whose permanence is a claim rather than a rate.
- $79 is at the low end of anything published in this market
- Both molecules in both routes, all four priced
- Bundles published with their monthly equivalents
- Fifty states
- The rate depends on a promotion, not a list price
- The terms name a higher list price than the checkout does
- Buyer complaints allege the “flat forever” lock was not always honored
- The orals cost roughly three times the injections
Pick it for: Buyers whose real choice is still the weekly injection
Not for: Anyone who needs the price to be contractual rather than promotional.
Strut Health
Partner
$99/mo
The oral is the cheap route here, which is backwards for this market: $99 for oral semaglutide against $149 for the injection. Tirzepatide is $199 in either form. Every one of those is an auto-refill rate, so buying a single month costs more than the page implies.
- Oral semaglutide at $99, below its own injection price
- Both molecules in both routes from one intake
- Prices published before the intake
- No video visit required
- Every price is an auto-refill rate; one-off months cost more
- Alaska is excluded
- GLP-1 is one product line among several, not the focus
- Compounding pharmacy is not named
Pick it for: The tablet, without the premium most sellers attach to it
Not for: Buyers who want a single month without a recurring charge attached.
Our verdict
Strut Health's tablet is $130 cheaper at $99 against $229, and the reason is structural rather than a discount: it prices the oral below its own injection, while Embody prices the oral at close to triple its own. The $99 is an auto-refill rate, so a single month costs more than the page implies, and nothing in Embody's oral listing explains its side of the gap.

Before you choose either
Coverage is not the same, and it decides the question outright for anyone living in the gap. Embody serves 1 state that Strut Health does not — AR. Check your own state before you weigh anything else here.
Whether these two publish a milligram dose is not settled in our records for both of them, so treat the two prices as not yet comparable and ask each what dose the monthly figure buys. Set the answers against every published price we hold — a lower monthly price at a smaller dose is not the cheaper option.
Our take is computed from a published rubric that does not read commercial status, and what is known about safety applies to both of them equally.
