Nova MD vs ShedRx
The verdict
ShedRx takes it — 87/100 to 66.6/100.
ShedRx grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. The widest formulation spread on the board — injection, drops, lozenges and a daily oral pill, plus a real brand Zepbound lane.

Graded #187 · C
Strengths
- On-page pricing published for all four SKUs (semaglutide and tirzepatide, 1- and 3-month)
- $125/mo semaglutide and $199/mo tirzepatide 3-month plans rank among the cheapest in the market
- $50 off first tirzepatide order shown publicly
- Explicit microdose / low-dose program for both semaglutide and tirzepatide
- Broader menu (sermorelin, NAD+, glutathione, enclomiphene) for longevity alongside GLP-1
Where it loses points
- Legal entity name and state of incorporation not disclosed
- Compounding pharmacy not named — only 'accredited facilities'
- LegitScript certification not confirmed (only 'Licensed US Providers' claims)
- Per-state availability not listed
- Compounded only — no brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, or Ozempic
Graded #3 · B+
Strengths
- Four GLP-1 routes — injection, liquid drops, lozenges and an oral daily pill
- Brand Zepbound and Wegovy available beside the compounded line
- Health coaching included with membership, plus a published 120-day weight-loss guarantee
Where it loses points
- The advertised "as low as $239" tirzepatide rate requires a twelve-month commitment — month-to-month is $299
- Compounded medication is not FDA-approved the way brand Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound are
- The dispensing compounding pharmacy is not publicly named
