What we found on their site
Read on EdgeRx's own website in October 2026. Quoted text is theirs.
- On coverage the FAQ says "EdgeRx protocols are currently available in 47 states. Arkansas, Indiana, and South Carolina are not yet supported."
- On canceling it says "No cancellation fee, no minimum commitment," and on billing that "You're charged when you place your order, before physician review."
- Its pharmacy page reads "EdgeRx works with a single network of compounding pharmacies: Strive Pharmacy, a US-licensed 503A pharmacy compounding prescription medications since 2018."
What we like
- One monthly price that covers physician review and ongoing oversight, with no separate physician fee and free shipping
- Names its pharmacy: Strive Pharmacy, a 503A pharmacy compounding since 2018, and says finished preparations are third-party tested
- Cancel or pause any time before the next refill, with no cancellation fee and no minimum commitment
- Publishes its state list: 47 states, with Arkansas, Indiana and South Carolina named as not yet supported
- A wide menu beyond GLP-1s, including NAD+, sermorelin, glutathione and sexual-health protocols, and HSA/FSA reimbursement through Truemed
The caveats
- Built and marketed for men in their 40s and 50s, so women will find little written for them
- You are charged when you order, before the physician review; the only refund is for non-approval
- Once a protocol is approved and compounded it cannot be refunded
- Its Chief Medical Advisor, Dr. John Starke, does not prescribe; the prescribing physicians are not named
- Injections only on the GLP-1 side, with no brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound

EdgeRx, answered
Is EdgeRx legit?
EdgeRx is a real, operating GLP-1 telehealth program. LegitScript certification is the third-party check worth asking for — look for the seal on their site and confirm your prescriber is US-licensed at intake. Like most programs here it dispenses compounded GLP-1s, which are made by a licensed pharmacy but aren't FDA-approved.
How much does EdgeRx cost?
EdgeRx lists compounded semaglutide from $199/mo and tirzepatide from $225/mo — above our category median of $189/mo. These are the provider's public figures at our last review; confirm on their site, since some teaser tiers step up after month one.
Does EdgeRx ship to my state?
Almost certainly — EdgeRx reports near-nationwide coverage (47 states (excludes Arkansas, Indiana, South Carolina)). Check the exclusions before you pay.
EdgeRx vs MadeMed — which should I pick?
They score within a few points of each other: EdgeRx at 75/100 and MadeMed at 75/100, so neither wins on the headline number. EdgeRx is the better fit for men who want a compounded GLP-1 built around keeping muscle, a named pharmacy, and the option to add peptide protocols such as NAD+ or sermorelin on the same account. MadeMed suits people who want to see the exact per-dose price before starting, and want the option to move between an injection and a tablet. Run the quiz and the weighting shifts to whichever of those matters more to you.
Pricing & state data come from EdgeRx's public site and our master provider matrix. The Match Score and its sub-scores are our editorial judgment per the methodology. Commercial facts only — prices change, so confirm on EdgeRx's site. Not medical advice; see our disclosure.
EdgeRx sells compounded GLP-1s to men as part of a broader menu of physician-prescribed protocols. Semaglutide is $199 a month and tirzepatide $225, both compounded with glycine and B12 by Strive Pharmacy, and the monthly price includes physician review, ongoing oversight and free shipping. You take a short assessment, a board-certified physician reviews it, usually within 24 hours, and there is no video visit or insurance. It suits men who want a named pharmacy, published state coverage and the option to add NAD+ or sermorelin later. The trade-offs are modest: you pay before review, approved orders cannot be refunded, the prescribers are not named, and there is no oral or brand-name option. Bottom line — a tidy, honest program if you are a man shopping for a compounded injection.
