The verdict

Curex takes it — 69.2/100 to 60.2/100.

Curex grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Curex (Curex, Inc.) offers compounded semaglutide ($149/mo) and tirzepatide ($199/mo) in injectable and oral dissolving tablet formats.

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.
