The verdict

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. Avono Health is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
