How the comparison is built

Every figure on this site is read from a public page, tied to that page and dated. Here is what that means in practice.

Where figures come from

A figure is verified when it was read on the provider's own website: the product page, the pricing page or the terms. A figure read anywhere else, such as a press release or another website, is taggedUnverified until it is confirmed on the provider's pages.

A provider is marked Verified only when all of its plans, its cancellation terms and its product page have been read first-hand.

What we record

• Every plan the provider publishes, with its monthly price and the number of months billed.
• The form (injection, dissolving tablet, lozenge, troche or nasal spray), the dose and the milligrams shipped per month, when published.
• What the price includes: consultation, supplies, lab tests, shipping.
• Who prescribes, which pharmacy fills the order and which states are served.
• The cancellation and refund terms.

How the numbers are calculated

• From, per month: the lowest regular monthly price among the provider's plans. A first-month discount is shown next to it and never used as the headline price.
• Total over the commitment: monthly price multiplied by the months of commitment. It is left empty when a first-month discount applies, because providers do not publish how the discount combines with a prepaid plan.
• Price per mg: monthly price divided by the milligrams shipped per month. Left empty when the provider does not publish the supply.

What we do not do

• We do not test medication and we do not rate medical effectiveness.
• We do not rank providers by commission. The table is sorted by verification status, then by price.
• We do not give medical advice. See the medical disclaimer.

Updates

Each figure shows the date it was read. When a provider changes a price, the figure and its date are replaced.
