The verdict
ZYP Medical takes it — 74.6/100 to 74.3/100, but only just.
ZYP Medical grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. ZYP Medical is a men's-health-oriented telehealth practice prescribing compounded GLP-1 medications for weight loss across six states. Semaglutide Online is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
