The split

They differ on 3 of the 7 things we track, and behave the same on the other 4. The differences are what the price gap is actually buying.

What each puts on the record: Fifty 410

• Compounded tirzepatide starter protocol at $133/month, sold as a $399 three-month block.
• High-dose tirzepatide protocol at $183/month, sold as a $549 three-month block.
• No membership, no subscription and no recurring charges — you buy a block outright.
• Provider consultation and free 1-2 day shipping included in the price.
• States it is a telehealth platform that does not compound or distribute medication itself, and that preparations come from FDA-registered 503A pharmacies.
• Publishes unusually detailed information on 503A standards, USP 797 sterility and batch testing.
• No payment taken unless a provider approves you.

Where it wins: Genuinely no subscription — you buy a block and nothing recurs. Watch for: The $133 is the starter protocol. Moving to the high-dose protocol takes it to $183/month, and both are prepaid three-month commitments.

What each puts on the record: Ro

• Ro Body membership is $39 for the first month, then $149/month.
• Membership does not include the cost of GLP-1 medication.
• Ro has exited compounded GLP-1s and works with FDA-approved branded products.
• Effective all-in cost commonly lands between $298 and $598/month depending on the medication and any insurance coverage.
• Cancellation requires notice before the renewal date.

Where it wins: FDA-approved medication only, which removes the compounding-regulation question entirely. Watch for: The membership and the medication are two separate bills. A $39 first month does not mean a $39 prescription.
