Injectco vs NowPatient
The verdict
NowPatient takes it — 65.5/100 to 64.6/100, but only just.
NowPatient grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. NowPatient is a US-UK telehealth platform offering brand-name GLP-1 weight management access including Mounjaro, Wegovy (injection and oral tablet), and Saxenda. Injectco is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
