Lean Rx vs Somira Health
The verdict
Somira Health takes it — 62.5/100 to 60.6/100, but only just.
Somira Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Somira Health is a self-pay telehealth platform that connects you with independent licensed providers and compounding pharmacies for GLP-1 weight loss. Lean Rx is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
