Score comparison
MediRX has the higher recorded score — 66.1/100 to 66/100, but only just.

MediRX is a telehealth weight-loss platform offering compounded GLP-1 injections — semaglutide starting at $149/month and tirzepatide starting at $199/month — plus NAD+ and a name-brand GLP-1 option. altRX is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
