Green Cap Health vs InstaRX
The verdict
InstaRX takes it — 63.8/100 to 63.2/100, but only just.
InstaRX grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. InstaRX is a multi-product compounded-medication telehealth platform offering GLP-1 injections (semaglutide and tirzepatide) alongside anti-aging peptides (NAD+, Sermorelin, B12/MIC) and sexual-health… Green Cap Health is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #258 · C
Strengths
- Vertically integrated: the prescribing practice and the compounding pharmacy are the same company, so the supply chain is short and named
- Same-day provider review and 1-3 day discreet shipping
- The full commitment ladder is published, so the month-to-month rate and the six-month rate can be compared directly
Where it loses points
- The advertised $2.63-a-day and $79 first-month figures do not correspond to any purchasable plan; the cheapest real rates are $129/mo semaglutide and $199/mo tirzepatide, both on six-month commitments, and month-to-month is $179 and $279
- The terms disclose a separate Weight Management Program Membership Fee, charged periodically on top of the plan and revealed only during checkout — it appears on no product page
- The terms also state recurring fees are charged in advance without seeking any additional authorisation
- Service is Texas-only, so nothing here is available to a reader outside that state
- The site's terms link out to lifemd.com's terms — the legal text is another company's
Graded #250 · C
Strengths
- Available in all 50 states plus DC
- Manage GLP-1, anti-aging peptides, and sexual-health medications on one account
- Offers both compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide
- Independent provider group (Dr Telx) named in the Terms of Service
Where it loses points
- No per-dose or monthly pricing published — only a "$199 to get started" hook; you can't compare costs before intake
- No LegitScript, HIPAA, or NABP accreditation shown on public pages
- Compounding pharmacy not named — only "U.S. pharmacies"
- Terms of Service reads like generic boilerplate, including copy-paste language about women's health issues — suggests low template hygiene
- Delaware governing law for disputes despite a California corporate address
