The split

2 differences on the record. The others match.

What each puts on the record: WeightWatchers Clinic

• 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: Ro

• 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.
