Factor by factor
The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
Vitara RX
VitaraRx is a direct-to-consumer telehealth marketplace offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide at flat per-drug pricing across all doses — no membership or hidden fees.
Why it's a deal
- Among the lowest flat pricing in the market — $99/mo semaglutide and $149/mo tirzepatide, all doses same price
- Names its 503A pharmacy partner (Manifest Pharmacy, Greer SC) — strong supply-chain transparency
- LegitScript Certified
- Publishes the FDA compounded-medication disclaimer
- Covers 49 states with an explicit state list, not vague "most states" language
The fine print
- No corporate legal entity disclosed — only the trade name "VitaraRx"
- No named medical director — all clinical decisions made by independent providers (marketplace model)
- All sales final — no medication returns
- Per-vial mg quantity isn't clearly disclosed, making price comparisons harder
- Doesn't ship to Alaska
RxSpan MD
A broad, physician-led menu — compounded and oral GLP-1 plus an advertised brand-name lane under a named plastic surgeon — with transparent, all-inclusive pricing from ~$194/mo (annual) across all 50 states.
Why it's a deal
- Available in all 50 states
- Transparent, all-inclusive published pricing — consult, medication, supplies, shipping, and support in one price; cancel or change plans anytime, with a low annual entry from ~$194/mo on compounded semaglutide
- Both injectable and a real oral (capsule) route, on compounded sema/tirz plus an advertised brand-name lane
- Physician-led by a named, board-certified founder (Dr. John Diaz, plastic surgeon); 24/7 unlimited messaging and coaching, free shipping
The fine print
- Compounded semaglutide/tirzepatide are not FDA-approved — not the same as Wegovy, Ozempic, or Zepbound
- Published pricing shown is for the compounded line — brand-name pricing isn't itemized
- Prescription isn't guaranteed — a provider reviews eligibility after checkout
