The verdict

EdgeRx takes it — 79/100 to 57.8/100.

EdgeRx grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. A men's-only compounded GLP-1 program that names its pharmacy (Strive Pharmacy, 503A since 2018) and its Chief Medical Advisor — real transparency signals most compounders skip.

Graded #43 · C+

Strengths

  • Named compounding pharmacy — Strive Pharmacy, a 503A facility compounding since 2018 — a genuine transparency signal most compounders lack
  • Named Chief Medical Advisor, Dr. John Starke, MD (ABEM board-certified)
  • LegitScript certified, once-weekly injectable, free shipping, no separate physician fee
  • Broad protocol menu beyond GLP-1 — MICC lipotropic, sermorelin/NAD+/glutathione, skin/hair, and sexual/hormonal health tiers

Where it loses points

  • Men's-only positioning — not an option for women
  • Dr. Starke does not personally prescribe; the actual prescribing pool is unnamed licensed physicians
  • Third-party lab testing is claimed but no specific lab is named
  • Excludes Arkansas, Indiana, Minnesota and South Carolina (46 states)
  • Bloodwork cost is undisclosed on the Sexual & Hormonal Health tier
Luma Meds

Graded #431 · C

Strengths

  • LegitScript certified — a credibility mark fewer compounded GLP-1 providers carry
  • Free discreet shipping and unlimited 24/7 support on every plan
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide from FDA-regulated 503A/503B pharmacies
  • '100,000+ members treated' claim with physician-supervised online care
  • 3-month bundle pricing brings semaglutide as low as $140/mo

Where it loses points

  • Compounding pharmacy partner not publicly named
  • States available not published
  • Monthly semaglutide ($249/mo) is above many lower-cost compounded competitors
  • No oral formulation options listed
  • Compounded medications are not FDA-approved

Also worth a look

Another provider to compare: CoreAge Rx

CoreAge Rx scores 89.5/100 (B+). CoreAge Rx advertises flat dose pricing for compounded injections, with no membership fee; its consultation-fee and refund deadlines deserve a close read before paying.
