RxSpan MD vs ShedRx
The verdict
ShedRx takes it — 87/100 to 86.8/100, but only just.
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 in the ranking — injection, drops, lozenges and a daily oral pill, plus a real brand Zepbound lane. RxSpan MD is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #4 · B
Strengths
- Available in all 50 states
- Transparent, all-inclusive published pricing — consult, medication, supplies, shipping and support, cancel anytime, from ~$194/mo compounded semaglutide on an annual plan
- Both injectable and a real oral (capsule) route, plus compounded and an advertised brand-name lane
- Physician-led by a named, board-certified founder (Dr. John Diaz) with 24/7 messaging and coaching
Where it loses points
- Compounded semaglutide/tirzepatide are not FDA-approved (not the same as Wegovy/Ozempic/Zepbound)
- Published pricing is for the compounded line — brand-name pricing isn’t itemized
- A prescription isn’t guaranteed — a provider reviews eligibility after checkout
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
