The verdict

Henry Meds takes it — 77.3/100 to 67.2/100.

Henry Meds grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. A flat-fee compounded pioneer — simple, but priced at the higher end of the board now.

We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.
