The verdict

BloomWell Rx takes it — 61.3/100 to 60.9/100, but only just.

BloomWell Rx grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. BloomWell Rx is a 100% online telehealth service offering personalized compounded GLP-1 weight loss — semaglutide (from $199/mo) and tirzepatide/GLP-1+GIP (from $249/mo) — after a free visit, plus wellness… Ascend Vitality is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
