Telos Rx
Rank #23 · Grade C
What we like
- Four price points posted up front, before any intake — genuinely transparent on the headline number
- Stated flat pricing — 'your monthly cost stays the same even as your dose goes up' — in writing on the pricing page and its own FAQ
- Oral/sublingual and microdose tirzepatide options for a gentler start
The caveats
- States served aren't published anywhere on the site
- No named pharmacy or medical director; self-stated Trustpilot rating is unverified
