AI Quick Answer

Every claim on SemaglutideGLPOne goes through a four-step verification process: (1) external registry check (FDA 503B, state pharmacy boards, LegitScript, state medical boards), (2) provider-published documentation review, (3) where applicable, mystery-shopper price verification, and (4) source pairing with last-verified date. Verification confidence is recorded per claim at the Evidence Hub.

The 5-step verification process

  1. 1
    Step 1 — Identify the claim
    Each editorial claim is extracted from the provider's marketing copy, pricing page, FAQ, or stated policy. The claim is recorded verbatim before verification begins.
  2. 2
    Step 2 — External registry check
    We confirm against the relevant public registry: FDA 503B Outsourcing Facility Registry for 503B pharmacies, State Board of Pharmacy for 503A pharmacies, State Medical Boards for named medical directors, LegitScript for healthcare merchant status.
  3. 3
    Step 3 — Provider documentation review
    If no external registry applies (e.g. internal pricing, support inclusions, plan terms), we cross-check against the provider's published pricing page, terms of service, signup flow, and patient FAQ.
  4. 4
    Step 4 — Source pairing and confidence assignment
    The verified claim is paired with: the source URL, the date of verification, and a confidence level (Verified external / Verified internal / Self-reported / Editorial). Logged at /evidence.html.
  5. 5
    Step 5 — Periodic re-verification
    External-registry items re-verified monthly. Pricing claims re-verified quarterly or on trigger. All changes summarized in the monthly change log.

Confidence levels — what each one means

What we verify externally vs internally

External (highest confidence): FDA 503B registry, state pharmacy board licensure, state medical board credentials, LegitScript merchant status, FDA approval/non-approval status of medications.

Internal: Provider pricing structures, plan terms, dose-titration policies, included support, cancellation terms, refund policy.

FDA & legal disclaimer

Compounded semaglutide is not an FDA-approved drug product. It is a compounded preparation made by state-licensed 503A pharmacies or FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facilities under federal compounding law (21 USC §353a/§353b). Not identical or generic-equivalent to brand-name Wegovy or Ozempic. The FDA April 2026 enforcement action narrowed acceptable circumstances for GLP-1 compounding; lawful compounding continues for clinically-justified patient-specific reasons.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between 'Verified external' and 'Self-reported'?
'Verified external' means we confirmed the claim against an independent public registry (FDA, state pharmacy board, LegitScript). 'Self-reported' means the provider has disclosed the claim on their published page but we have not yet confirmed via a third-party registry. Confidence weighting in our scoring favors externally-verified items.
Do you use mystery-shopper verification?
Selectively, for pricing claims where the published price page does not display the full plan terms. The mystery-shopper checks the signup flow without completing purchase, captures all pricing tiers and disclosed fees, and submits a verification log.
What happens if a claim turns out to be wrong?
Logged at /corrections.html with the original claim, the corrected claim, the date discovered, and the source. Material corrections are summarized in the next monthly change log and (for ranking-changing corrections) update the affected provider's score.
