Goldspan Health vs telos rx
The verdict
telos rx takes it — 85.4/100 to 68.2/100.
telos rx grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. A LegitScript-certified, HIPAA telehealth with one of the deepest published catalogs in the ranking — compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide (oral and microdosed routes included) alongside PT-141, intranasal NAD+, and a long recovery/GH peptide bench — with compounded GLP-1 starting from $49/mo on an annual plan.

The numbers
| Metric | Goldspan Health | telos rx |
|---|---|---|
| WeighScore | 68.2/100 | 85.4/100 |
| Grade | C | B |
| Site position | #169 | #14 |
| Semaglutide | $229 per 28 days (a single plan; thirteen charges a year) | $99/mo injectable — the $49 headline is only the FIRST month of the 12-month prepaid ORAL plan, which renews at $129/mo billed every 48 weeks |
| Tirzepatide | $299 per 28 days (a single plan; thirteen charges a year) | $139/mo injectable · $129/mo oral · $116/mo microdosed (microdosing is tirzepatide, not semaglutide) |
| Coverage | All 50 states plus Washington, D.C. | Not publicly listed |
| Brand-name access | Compounded only | Compounded only |
| Oral / sublingual | Yes | Yes |
Site position #169 · C
Strengths
- One plan per molecule with no tier ladder to read, which removes the commonest source of a misquoted price
- Sublingual full-dose and microdose lines sit alongside the injections for readers who will not inject
- States its compounding class — dispensed by a pharmacy licensed under 503A or 503B — rather than leaving it unsaid
- Names a medical director and two clinical advisors by name and specialty
- A lab panel is genuinely required at 60 to 90 days and annually after that, which is stronger monitoring than most of this ranking asks for
Where it loses points
- The required lab panel is described as available at a low cost and its cost is stated nowhere on the site
- The hero says “/month”, the plan card says billed every 28 days and the order timeline says every four weeks — thirteen charges a year, not twelve
- “Pause, delay, or cancel at any time” on the storefront sits against a refund policy reading “all sales are final” and platform terms saying an order cannot be canceled once placed
- The tirzepatide sublingual microdose page lists compounded sublingual semaglutide microdose in its own inclusion list
- Clinicians are attributed to a partner platform while the storefront states it is not a medical practice
- No pharmacy is named, and Goldspan publishes no legal entity, address or governing law of its own
- Full-dose sublingual products exist on the catalog and are not linked from the site's own weight-loss page
Site position #14 · B
Strengths
- Deep published catalog — sema, tirz, PT-141, intranasal NAD+, recovery/GH peptides, GHK-Cu, Dihexa, HRT
- Needle-free and oral GLP-1 options, not injection-only
- LegitScript-certified and HIPAA, with US providers and pharmacies, HSA/FSA and free shipping
- Low GLP-1 entry — from $49/mo microdosed on an annual plan
Where it loses points
- Everything is compounded and not FDA-approved, including the peptides
- Pricing is opaque outside GLP-1 and the lowest rates require annual lock-in
- No named clinicians and thin third-party reviews
- Several research-grade peptides carry limited clinical evidence
