The verdict

VyrarX takes it — 68.3/100 to 66.6/100, but only just.

VyrarX grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. VyrarX is a LegitScript-certified telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide (from $179/month) and compounded tirzepatide (from $329/month) via weekly injection, prescribed by licensed US physicians. Nova MD 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.
