The scorecard
EdgeRx scored on our six Brief Score factors. See the methodology.
What we like
- Both molecules disclosed up front — semaglutide $229/mo, tirzepatide $299/mo, both once-weekly injectable with free shipping and no separate physician fee
- Named compounding pharmacy — Strive Pharmacy, 503A, operating since 2018 — most peers name none
- Named Chief Medical Advisor, Dr. John Starke, MD (ABEM board-certified)
- LegitScript certified
The caveats
- Men-only — not built for, or marketed to, women or other readers
- The named Chief Medical Advisor does not personally prescribe; the actual prescribing pool is unnamed licensed physicians
- Third-party lab testing is claimed but no specific lab is named
- Excludes Arkansas, Indiana, Minnesota, and South Carolina
The brief
Best for: Men who want a straightforward, disclosed weekly-injectable price on either molecule and value knowing the pharmacy filling the script by name. A men's-only protocol shop with flat, disclosed GLP-1 pricing, a named Chief Medical Advisor, and a named 503A compounding pharmacy — rare transparency for this tier of the board.

- #30Gala Health— A nationwide women's desk (Gala GLP-1, from AI Coaching Inc) whose cheap compounded-tirzepatide door only opens on a yearly subscription — with, unusually, a brand-name path on the shelf beside it.82/100

- #32Henry Meds— A flat-fee compounded pioneer — simple model, but its price has drifted to the higher end of our board.84/100
- #34Found— The widest medication bench on the board — compounded, brand-name and oral orforglipron — priced off a membership rather than a sticker.81/100
- #35Big Easy Weight Loss— Big Easy Weight Loss (joinbigeasy.com) is a New Orleans MD-run telehealth that ships compounded GLP-1 medication nationwide.83/100
- #36Semaglutide Online— Semaglutide Online is a LegitScript-certified telehealth platform prescribing compounded and brand-name GLP-1/GIP medications nationwide (excluding Alabama).83/100
