Visit ZealthyThe verdict
Oak edges out Zealthy on the Mom-Tested Score, 78 to 38 (C vs C). Budget-driven moms who want the lowest sticker and a nap-friendly async signup, and who will read the commitment and no-refund terms before committing.
Zealthy is still a genuine option — ⛔ FDA warning letter #716501 (Sept. 2025), which names getzealthy.com. Listed only so you can see why we rank it last: in April 2026 the FTC and DOJ moved to seize the company and freeze its assets. Read that before anything else here. Weigh the six mom factors below against your own priorities.

Oak
Ranked #27 · Grade C
What we like
- Very low advertised starting prices on both semaglutide and tirzepatide
- Fully async — no video visit to schedule, with provider review often within hours
- Monthly or quarterly plans if you want to lock in the lower rate
The caveats
- The low prices require a multi-month commitment — a single month costs much more
- No refunds once medication ships, plus a binding-arbitration/class-action waiver
- No named medical director or pharmacy published
Zealthy
Ranked #310 · Grade C
What we like
- Cheapest verified monthly semaglutide on our shortlist — real budget relief
- Fast, mostly-async signup with the price visible before you commit
- Both molecules available, and a broad general-telehealth platform if you need other care too
The caveats
- ⛔ FDA warning letter #716501, dated September 9, 2025, to FitRX, LLC dba Zealthy, for unlawful sale of unapproved and misbranded drugs over the internet — the letter names its own site
- April 2026: the FTC and DOJ asked a federal court to place Zealthy in receivership and freeze its assets, alleging deceptive disclosures, obstructive cancellation and review manipulation
- The same complaint alleges misuse of clinicians' NPI numbers to issue prescriptions without their knowledge or consent — the government's words are that Zealthy is "actively deceiving telehealth patients, endangering their safety, and raiding their bank accounts". These are allegations, not findings; the case is ongoing
Assume any provider we list may compensate us — we may earn a commission, at no cost to you. It never changes a Mom-Tested Score. Pricing, states and verification reflect each provider's public disclosures at last review; the Mom-Tested Score is our editorial judgment per the methodology. Prices change — confirm on each provider's site. Not medical advice; see our disclosure.
