The verdict

Rex MD takes it — 70.2/100 to 61.2/100.

Rex MD grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Rex MD is a US-based men's-health telehealth platform (a LifeMD brand) offering a 100 percent online GLP-1 weight-management program.

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.

LunaRx

Graded #301 · C

Strengths

  • Pairs GLP-1 with muscle-protective peptides (e.g., CJC-1295/Ipamorelin, NAD+) to defend lean mass during fat loss
  • Structured, physician-directed off-ramp taper with GI-reset support instead of an indefinite prescription
  • Bilingual care in English and Spanish across intake, messaging, and consults
  • Care directed through a named independent medical group (CareNexus Clinic PC); $0 charged if you are not approved
  • Published clinical support hours (Mon–Fri, CT) with phone, email, and secure messaging; cancel anytime

Where it loses points

  • Only a "from $199/mo" starting price is published; tirzepatide and per-tier pricing are confirmed only after a provider review
  • Compounding pharmacy partners are not named on the site — a transparency gap
  • No LegitScript or PCAB verification is displayed
  • States served are not published; the site claims "telehealth nationwide" but the Terms limit service to states where LunaRx is licensed
  • Compounded medications are not FDA-approved (the site discloses this)
Rex MD

Graded #109 · C

Strengths

  • Flat $199/mo program bundles consult, medication and overnight shipping
  • Brand-name semaglutide and Zepbound vials, not just compounded
  • Serves all 50 states, fully online
  • LegitScript certified with US-based, state-licensed providers
  • Backed by parent company LifeMD

Where it loses points

  • Does not accept insurance
  • Marketed primarily to men via a men's-health platform
  • Zepbound vial cost rises with dose titration
  • Branded-only program costs more than compounded options

Also worth a look
