iThriveMD vs TeleHealth Med
The verdict
iThriveMD takes it — 66.7/100 to 66.1/100, but only just.
iThriveMD grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. iThriveMD is a longevity and metabolic-health clinic (physical locations plus telehealth) offering compounded GLP-1 weight loss — semaglutide (from $299/mo) and tirzepatide (from $399/mo), plus microdosing… TeleHealth Med is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
