Metabolyz vs PrescribedRX
The verdict
Metabolyz takes it — 59.6/100 to 59/100, but only just.
Metabolyz grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Metabolyz is a nationwide GLP-1 telehealth platform offering three compounded programs — standard semaglutide, dual-agonist tirzepatide, and a microdose protocol for patients near goal weight or intolerant… PrescribedRX is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
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 #339 · C
Strengths
- Three GLP-1 programs: standard semaglutide, dual-agonist tirzepatide, and a microdose protocol for near-goal or dose-sensitive patients
- Nutrition, movement, and lifestyle coaching included in all programs at no extra charge
- Medication compounded in licensed 503A/503B US pharmacies with temperature-controlled, unmarked direct-to-door delivery
- Licensed provider supervision with direct messaging access and structured check-ins throughout
- Telehealth across all 50 states; BMI 27+ eligibility (25+ with weight-related condition)
Where it loses points
- Pricing is fully gated — not disclosed until after consultation, preventing upfront cost comparison
- Compounded GLP-1 only — no brand-name options (Wegovy, Zepbound) available
- No LegitScript certification or named medical leadership found on public-facing pages
- Labs not mentioned as included — unclear whether baseline or follow-up bloodwork is offered
- Newer brand with no external reviews, published outcomes data, or notable accreditations
Graded #351 · C
Strengths
- Compounded semaglutide ($189/mo) and tirzepatide ($276/mo) injectables, with lower per-month pricing on the 3-month plans ($176 and $233/mo)
- Clear, upfront plan pages showing monthly and multi-month pricing with no surprise fees
- Care from licensed US providers with monthly home delivery and ongoing dose support
- Bilingual English/Spanish site and a broader telehealth menu (TRT, longevity, hair, sexual health) for people who want more than weight loss
Where it loses points
- Doesn't publish the states it serves — you only learn eligibility after starting the intake
- Compounding pharmacies aren't named on the site
- Mid-range pricing — cheaper compounded GLP-1 options exist and the 3-month discount is modest
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injectables only — no brand-name or oral options
- Self-hosted affiliate program (not a vetted network); Florida/Palm Beach framing suggests a regional lean
