Iron Med RX vs LaSara Medical Group
The verdict
Iron Med RX takes it — 54.8/100 to 54.5/100, but only just.

Iron Med RX (IRON RX Telehealth) is a Dallas-based online weight-loss provider offering compounded GLP-1 with licensed-provider oversight and home delivery. LaSara Medical Group is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #453 · C
Strengths
- Unusually broad GLP-1 lineup — compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in both oral tablets and injection, plus microdosing and longevity add-ons
- Online process with licensed-provider oversight, virtual consults, progress tracking and home delivery
- Oral tablet options for people who would rather not inject
Where it loses points
- Prices are not shown publicly — you only see costs after creating an account, so you cannot compare value upfront
- Labels its oral semaglutide 'research-grade' — wording usually tied to research/non-prescription peptides; confirm it is prescribed for human use
- Does not name its compounding pharmacy or list the states it serves; the listed address is a private mailbox (PMB), not a clinic
- Compounded GLP-1 only — no brand-name or insurance options; small, lightly documented operation
Graded #455 · C
Strengths
- Multi-modality clinic — compounded GLP-1s alongside TRT, peptides, B12, NAD+, sermorelin, and enclomiphene
- National telehealth plus an in-person option in Southern California — uncommon hybrid model
- Free initial consultation
- Active promotional pricing (30% off sitewide at the time of review)
- GLP-1 pricing now published on product pages: compounded semaglutide from $233/mo, tirzepatide from $325/mo on annual bundles
Where it loses points
- Legal entity name and state of incorporation not disclosed
- Compounding pharmacy partner not named
- LegitScript certification status not confirmed
- Per-state availability not listed despite the national-telehealth claim
- Lab work and ongoing monitoring inclusion not clearly disclosed for the multi-modality menu
