The verdict

LifeRx.md takes it — 69.3/100 to 63.6/100.

LifeRx.md grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. LifeRx.md is a LegitScript-certified US telehealth provider offering customized weight loss with GLP-1s.

We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.

Graded #134 · C

Strengths

  • Flat pricing that does not rise with dose: semaglutide ~$200, tirzepatide ~$275 per 5-week supply
  • LegitScript certified; prescriptions filled by state-licensed 503A pharmacies
  • Available in all 50 states
  • HSA and FSA payments accepted
  • Required video telehealth consult ensures clinician oversight

Where it loses points

  • Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved for safety, efficacy or quality
  • Extra fees stack up: ~$30 shipping, $49.95 initial consult, $25 follow-ups
  • True monthly cost (~$255) is higher than the headline medication price
  • Specific list of supported states not enumerated on site
Medro

Graded #256 · C

Strengths

  • Covers both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide and can prescribe brand-name GLP-1s when clinically appropriate.
  • LegitScript-certified (seal #50716646), available in all 50 states, with tiered pricing shown before checkout.
  • No membership fee and free expedited shipping on all orders; online intake with no appointment required in many cases.
  • Prices drop with longer commitments (semaglutide to $149/mo, tirzepatide to $224/mo on a 12-month plan).

Where it loses points

  • Does not name its compounding pharmacy or its clinical partner medical group, so the fulfillment chain is not verifiable.
  • Pricing is described as illustrative and may change by dose, pharmacy availability, and eligibility — final cost shows only at checkout.
  • Very new brand (2026, trademark pending) spanning many verticals, with a short track record in GLP-1 care.
  • Compounded medications are not FDA-approved or therapeutically equivalent to Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound.
