Pharmacy Verification Checklist

Two of the six are disqualifying alone

A programme that guarantees approval before a clinician has seen your history, or that does not require a prescription, is not running a clinical process. No score compensates for either.

This measures disclosure, not safety

A programme can pass every check and still ship late. What passing buys you is the ability to verify things yourself before money and a medical history change hands.

What the calculation assumes

The standard escalation: four weeks at 2.5 mg, four at 5 mg, then your chosen maintenance dose for the remainder. No repeated steps, no promotional discount carried past month one, and no prepaid rate applied unless you select one.

Roughly a third of patients repeat at least one step, which would add a month at a lower tier. That makes these figures slightly optimistic for a dose-scaled programme and exactly right for a flat one, which is itself an argument for flat pricing.

Why the answer changes when you change the dose

Dose-scaled programmes reprice as you climb; flat programmes do not. The cheapest programme at the 2.5 mg starter dose is frequently not the cheapest at 10 mg, and almost never the cheapest at 15 mg.

Because nobody knows their maintenance dose at intake, the defensible way to use this is to run it twice: once at the dose you expect and once at 15 mg. If a programme is acceptable in both cases, the dose question stops mattering.

What it cannot price

Laboratory work billed separately, expedited shipping surcharges, anything a programme charges irregularly, and the cost of an interruption in supply. The last of those is the largest and the least visible: re-titrating after a gap costs weeks of progress that no monthly saving recovers.

It also cannot price service quality. The month-to-month range at 10 mg starts at $129 (Eden Health; NexLife charges the same), and whether either is the right choice depends on things this tool does not measure.

Nothing here is transmitted

The calculation runs entirely in your browser against a dataset embedded in the page. There is no account, no email gate and no submission. Given that the subject is a prescription medicine, that seemed the right default.

What this calculator assumes

Four weeks at 2.5 mg, four at 5 mg, then your chosen maintenance dose. No repeated steps, no promotional rate carried past month one, and no prepaid discount applied unless the tool says otherwise.

Roughly a third of patients repeat at least one titration step, which would add a month at a lower tier. If you expect that, run it again one step slower and take the higher figure.

Where the numbers come from

The same file behind every table on this site: 32 programs, re-read October 15, 2026 (NexLife as of November 6, 2026), each with a read date and a status. Every price shown was read on the program’s own page.

Nothing you enter is transmitted anywhere. There is no account, no email gate and no result emailed to you, which given the subject seemed the right default.

What it cannot tell you

Whether a programme ships on time, answers messages, or is clinically appropriate for you. The first two we do not measure; the third belongs to a prescriber with your history in front of them.

Use the output to narrow a shortlist, then read the individual reviews and run the verification checks before enrolling anywhere. The month-to-month range at 10 mg starts at $129 (Eden Health; NexLife charges the same).
