Sesame Care vs Strut Health
Two GLP-1 desks, one scoreboard. We put Sesame Care and Strut Health head-to-head on the published Brief Score — the same six factors, scored the same way.
Sesame Care
The verdict
Sesame Care takes this head-to-head.
Sesame Care scores 87 to 84 on our six-factor Brief Score — An established national telehealth marketplace with the widest real brand-name GLP-1 access on the board — Wegovy (pen and pill), Zepbound, Ozempic and Mounjaro — plus provider-by-provider price transparency.
That doesn't make Strut Health a bad call — it's best for readers who want a needle-free route at the lowest tracked price and are comfortable with a recurring auto-refill. Weigh the six factors below against your own priorities before you decide.
Assume any provider we list may compensate us — we may earn a commission, at no cost to you. It never changes the Brief Score.

Sesame Care: Marketplace pricing is set per provider rather than one desk rate; the brand-name Wegovy pill line held its ~$149 entry this cycle.
Strut Health: Cheapest oral route we track at $99 — but only on auto-refill; the one-off rate runs higher.
● Not sold on either?
CoreAge Rx tops the whole board at 94/100.
The steadiest desk on the board: one flat, no-step-up price on both molecules, nationwide, and it hasn't moved.
