By GLP-1 ScorecardUpdated
Score comparison
RedBox Rx has the higher recorded score — 70.2/100 to 69.7/100, but only just.
RedBox Rx grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. RedBox Rx is a US telehealth pharmacy (parent company Hy-Vee) offering compounded GLP-1 weight management with flat, dose-independent pricing.

Site position #132 · C
Strengths
- All-in per-order pricing — consultation, medication and shipping in one figure, no separate membership fee
- Oral semaglutide ($279 per 4 weeks) alongside the injectable, plus a Microdose GLP-1+B12/NAD+ stack ($179 per 4 weeks)
- LegitScript verified, available in all 50 states plus Washington, D.C.
What to consider
- Billed "per 4 weeks" rather than calendar month — roughly 8% higher annualized than the $249/$339 headline implies
- No named medical director, prescribers, or compounding pharmacy disclosed anywhere on the site
- Compounded only — not the FDA-approved brand product (Wegovy/Ozempic), which matters if you're relying on insurance
Site position #120 · C
Strengths
- Flat, dose-independent pricing on both semaglutide and tirzepatide
- Offers both weekly injections and daily oral tablets
- Includes unlimited provider follow-ups, a metabolic panel and a dietitian session
- Backed by grocery-pharmacy parent company Hy-Vee
What to consider
- Does not serve every state (for example Mississippi is excluded)
- Does not publicly name its compounding pharmacy
