The verdict

Too close to call — both grade 70.2/100 (C).

RedBox Rx and Rex MD land on the same WeighScore, so neither clears the other on our six graded dimensions. RedBox Rx sits one line higher on the board (#108 vs #109) on the underlying tiebreak, but it's a genuine coin-flip — pick on the factors and prices that matter most to you 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.
