EdgeRx vs Medsol RX
The verdict
EdgeRx takes it — 79/100 to 61/100.
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 #41 · 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
Graded #307 · C
Strengths
- Compounded semaglutide from $209/mo (12-mo plan) and tirzepatide from ~$250/mo; HSA/FSA eligible with Klarna financing
- Every plan bundles the medication, a dedicated care coach, custom treatment plan, medical oversight, and free shipping
- Board-certified clinicians via OpenLoop; same-day approvals; ships nationwide
- Month-to-month option ($199 first month) with no long-term commitment, plus microdosing and wellness add-ons
Where it loses points
- Doesn't name its compounding pharmacy (generic 'certified U.S. pharmacies')
- No legal entity name published on the site
- Tirzepatide pricing is given as a range ($250-$1,400/mo), not a fixed rate
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved (the site discloses this)
