The verdict

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

Zeuss grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Zeuss is a multi-vertical telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide for weight loss alongside TRT, HRT, skin, and hair services.

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.
