Sesame Care review
The one brand-name-only option here: you pick a named clinician at a posted price, and the medication is billed separately at cash-pay rates.
- Scores never bought
- 537 providers tracked
- Every factor auditable
- Updated February 2026
Sesame is a different product from everything else in this ranking, and comparing it on a monthly price is a category error.
- Semaglutide
- $149/mo brand Wegovy pill
- Tirzepatide
- $299/mo brand Zepbound vial
- Coverage
- Not disclosed
- Brand-name
- Yes
- Oral option
- Yes
- Verification
- LegitScript-certified
Best for: People who want FDA-approved Wegovy or Zepbound rather than a compounded version, and who would rather choose their clinician than be assigned one.
MatchScript's take: The one brand-name-only option here — and the one where a monthly price genuinely cannot be quoted.
The factor breakdown
Sesame Care on the six Match Score factors — the same sub-scores the quiz reweights to your priorities. See the methodology.
Sesame has no all-in monthly figure to score: the $59/mo subscription is care only and medication is billed on top, so Budget Fit reflects a structure you cannot price in advance rather than a high or a low sticker.
Limited or undisclosed state coverage can slow your start, for a middling 80 on Speed to Start.
Brand-name breadth nothing else here matches — Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro and the oral Wegovy pill — earns a 96, the highest Formulary score in the ranking, with the total absence of a compounded option as the counterweight.
Support lands at a solid 84 — solid, standard support.
Flexibility scores a below-par 72 — fewer levers to flex your plan.
LegitScript certification and clear public disclosures put Transparency at a solid 84.
Pricing in context
How Sesame Care's monthly price sits against the category median and the cheapest provider we track.
What we like
- You pick a named provider at a displayed price before booking — the opposite of the opaque intake most of this ranking runs on
- Brand-name breadth no compounder here matches: Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro and the oral Wegovy pill
- Cash-pay GLP-1 medication advertised from as low as $149/mo through LillyDirect and NovoCare
- The subscription's scope is stated honestly as clinical care only, and it is BBB-accredited and LegitScript-verified
The caveats
- TWO fees, not one: the medication price sits on top of a Success by Sesame subscription — $59/mo only on a 12-month commitment, otherwise $99 billed every 28 DAYS, which is 13 charges a year
- The $149 pill price covers only its two lowest doses (1.5 and 4 mg); at 9 and 25 mg it is $299
- Zepbound runs $299 at 2.5 mg to $449 at 7.5–15 mg in vials, and up to $699 for the higher KwikPen doses
- Our own link lands on Sesame's general telehealth marketplace rather than its weight-loss program
- There is no all-in monthly number to compare: the $59/mo annual subscription is care only, and medication is billed on top and varies with your insurance
- No compounded option at all, so the cheap compounded lane most of this ranking competes in is not available here
- Statewide availability cannot be listed — it depends which marketplace clinicians are licensed where you live
- Refunds are restrictive: full refund only if you cancel 3+ hours before the first visit, and none once the visit occurs
Who it's for — and who should skip it
Sesame Care is for people who want FDA-approved Wegovy or Zepbound rather than a compounded version, and who would rather choose their clinician than be assigned one.
Skip it if that doesn't sound like you. A closer fit may be HealthRX (Match Score 81) — or take the quiz to see where Sesame Care lands for your priorities.

Sesame Care, answered
Is Sesame Care legit?
Yes — Sesame Care is LegitScript-certified, a third-party check that a telehealth pharmacy operates within the rules. It dispenses FDA-approved brand-name medication rather than the compounded formulas most programs here sell, which is why its pricing sits higher; confirm your prescriber is US-licensed at intake.
How much does Sesame Care cost?
Sesame Care lists compounded semaglutide from $149/mo brand Wegovy pill and tirzepatide from $299/mo brand Zepbound vial — below our category median of $199/mo. These are the provider's public figures at our last review (February 2026); confirm on their site, since some teaser tiers step up after month one.
Does Sesame Care ship to my state?
Sesame Care doesn't publish a full state list, so confirm your state is covered during intake before you pay.
Sesame Care vs CoreAge Rx — which is better?
Both are in our ranking. Sesame Care scores 81/100; CoreAge Rx leads our default ranking at 91/100 for its flat nationwide pricing on both molecules and easy cancellation. Sesame Care can still win for you if its strengths match your priorities: it is built for people who want FDA-approved Wegovy or Zepbound rather than a compounded version, and who would rather choose their clinician than be assigned one. Run the quiz to see which comes out ahead for you.

Sesame is a different product from everything else in this ranking, and comparing it on a monthly price is a category error. It is a marketplace: you pick a named clinician at a posted price, the $59/mo annual subscription covers clinical care only, and medication is billed separately at cash-pay rates that vary with your insurance. In exchange you get brand-name breadth no compounder here matches — Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro and the oral Wegovy pill — with cash-pay GLP-1 advertised from as low as $149/mo through LillyDirect and NovoCare. There is no compounded option at all, statewide availability depends on which marketplace clinicians are licensed near you, and the refund window closes three hours before your first visit. Choose it if you want the FDA-approved drug and a clinician you picked yourself; skip it if you want one all-in number.
