What each puts on the record: WeightWatchers Clinic
- Med+ membership advertised at $25/month for the first two months on a 12-month plan.
- Membership then continues at $74/month on the 12-month plan or $84/month on the 6-month plan.
- The cost of GLP-1 medication is not included in the membership.
- All-in monthly cost commonly reported between $199 and $449 or more depending on medication and coverage.
- Offers an insurance cost estimator and savings-card support for branded medication.
Where it wins: The behaviour-change programme behind it is the most established in the category. Watch for: The $25/month headline is two months on a twelve-month contract, and it buys no medication at all.
What each puts on the record: Lemonaid Health
- GLP-1 programmes advertised from $129/month.

- Medication is billed separately from the membership.
Where it wins: Multi-month plans cut the medication price substantially. Watch for: Add $49/month to every price you are quoted. The advertised $129 is a programme floor, not the injection cost.
