The verdict

Lean Rx takes it — 60.6/100 to 58.9/100, but only just.

Lean Rx grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Lean Rx is a Sacramento-based telehealth technology platform offering compounded GLP-1 weight loss medications. Alegro Health is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.
