HealthRX vs Direct Meds
The verdict
HealthRX takes it — 86/100 to 82/100.
HealthRX grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. A LegitScript-certified (#50087439) physician-supervised program that runs a rare oral GLP tablet alongside the usual injectables — compounded semaglutide from ~$189/mo, tirzepatide/GLP+GIP up to ~$349, with a brand Ozempic pass-through if you need it.
Assume any provider we list may compensate us — we may earn a commission at no cost to you. It never changes the WeighScore.
