The verdict

MediRX takes it — 66.1/100 to 57.5/100.

MediRX grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. 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.

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.
