Better MedSpa vs PrescribedRX
The verdict
PrescribedRX takes it — 58.8/100 to 57.2/100, but only just.
PrescribedRX grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. PrescribedRX is a multi-condition telehealth brand (TRT, longevity, hair loss, sexual health and weight loss) that prescribes compounded GLP-1 injectables for weight loss: semaglutide at $189/month and… Better MedSpa is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #402 · C
Strengths
- Broad menu: semaglutide, tirzepatide, and liraglutide
- Both oral and injectable formulations offered
- Physician-led; medical director Dr. Brett Brechner, DO
- Both in-person Chicago visits and statewide telehealth
- Doorstep delivery throughout Illinois
Where it loses points
- Telehealth limited to Illinois only
- No pricing published online
- Compounded vs brand formulation not specified
- Med-spa positioning blends weight loss with aesthetics
Graded #360 · C
Strengths
- Compounded semaglutide ($189/mo) and tirzepatide ($276/mo) injectables, with lower per-month pricing on the 3-month plans ($176 and $233/mo)
- Clear, upfront plan pages showing monthly and multi-month pricing with no surprise fees
- Care from licensed US providers with monthly home delivery and ongoing dose support
- Bilingual English/Spanish site and a broader telehealth menu (TRT, longevity, hair, sexual health) for people who want more than weight loss
Where it loses points
- Doesn't publish the states it serves — you only learn eligibility after starting the intake
- Compounding pharmacies aren't named on the site
- Mid-range pricing — cheaper compounded GLP-1 options exist and the 3-month discount is modest
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injectables only — no brand-name or oral options
- Self-hosted affiliate program (not a vetted network); Florida/Palm Beach framing suggests a regional lean
