HealthRX

#48 of 53
5.2/10

HealthRX is a cash-pay telehealth platform for compounded injectable semaglutide and tirzepatide. Its July 2026 landing page lists semaglutide at $133/mo on a 3-month plan or $99/mo on a 12-month plan, plus tirzepatide at $209/mo or $179/mo. Prices stay flat across doses and include clinician review, dose adjustments, and overnight shipping. MD Integrations supplies the clinician network, while the dispensing 503A pharmacy remains unnamed on the public site.

MEDGm

#53 of 53
2.7/10

MEDGm is a telehealth company selling compounded GLP-1 injections from $179/mo and dissolvable tablets from $249/mo, with brand-name Zepbound, Wegovy and Ozempic offered as a membership plus an unpublished medication cost. The compounded prices are readable before intake and the not-FDA-approved disclosure is prominent, which is more than several better-known programs manage. The gap is verification: no clinician, no pharmacy and no accreditation is named anywhere on the site or in its terms.

  • Legal entity, headquarters, executive team, and medical director remain undisclosed
  • The tirzepatide product page advertises $149/mo while the current affiliate landing and FAQ say $179/mo, so confirm the checkout rate
  • The 4.8/5 from 12,000+ members block uses illustrative composites rather than an independent review platform
  • Cash-pay only, with no insurance billing or prior-authorization support
  • Compounded medications sit outside FDA premarket approval as finished products

MEDGm

Pros

  • +Compounded prices visible on the landing page without starting an intake
  • +Prominent, correctly-worded disclosure that compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved
  • +Cancel any time, with a published refund policy rather than a buried one
  • +Claims no accreditation it cannot support, which is rarer than it should be
  • +HSA/FSA accepted; free shipping stated

Cons

  • No medical director, prescribing clinician or medical group is named anywhere
  • No compounding pharmacy is named; the terms promise a partner list that the terms do not contain
  • Brand-name Zepbound, Wegovy and Ozempic are priced as a membership plus an unpublished medication cost, so no brand total can be compared
  • No lab panel is offered or required at any tier
  • The homepage claims 120,000+ patients on a domain registered 2026-04-08; we could not reconcile the two
  • A prepaid contracted term is non-refundable, and dispensed medication is never refundable
  • No third-party rating exists that we could locate and verify

Our Verdict

HealthRX edges out MEDGm with a score of 5.2/10 vs 2.7/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: HealthRX is from $99/mo; MEDGm is from $179/mo. MEDGm offers both brand-name and compounded medications, giving you more flexibility.
