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. Henry's low monthly equivalents come with a full year paid upfront, so it is a poor fit for someone shopping for a short trial.

Henry Meds

Graded #48 · C+

Strengths

  • Published plan prices identify their upfront-payment requirement
  • Medication, provider access, applicable supplies and shipping included if prescribed
  • Compounded injectable semaglutide and oral options listed

Where it loses points

  • The $197 semaglutide headline requires $2,364 upfront, not monthly payments
  • The listed $234 tirzepatide offer is oral compounded medication, not an injectable quote
  • Multi-month balances may remain payable after cancellation; medical-discontinuation refunds require documentation and approval, and dispensed medication is excluded
Optimized Health

Graded #184 · C

Strengths

  • Fully transparent pricing published on the website
  • Semaglutide from $200/mo and tirzepatide from $250/mo
  • Lab panels included with clinician-supervised dosing
  • LegitScript certified clinic
  • Lead PA-C with over a decade in obesity medicine

Where it loses points

  • Telehealth limited to MO, IA, KS, UT, and WA
  • Compounded GLP-1 only, not brand-name
  • No insurance billing (cash-pay)
  • PA-led rather than MD/DO-led

Also worth a look

Another provider to compare: CoreAge Rx

CoreAge Rx scores 89.5/100 (B+). CoreAge Rx advertises flat dose pricing for compounded injections, with no membership fee; its consultation-fee and refund deadlines deserve a close read before paying.
