HeliMeds vs NuDay Rx
The verdict
HeliMeds takes it — 68.3/100 to 66.9/100, but only just.
HeliMeds grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. HeliMeds offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as well as brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound. NuDay Rx is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
