Rex MD on the six Match Score factors — the same sub-scores the quiz reweights to your priorities. See the methodology.
The Wegovy pill at $349 a month, the same at every dose, sits in the over-$300 band, so Budget Fit is 37.
An online questionnaire with photo upload, usually no live call, in all 50 states; prescriptions take 3–5 business days to process, then ship overnight.
Brand-name semaglutide as a pill and a pen, Zepbound (tirzepatide) and Saxenda (liraglutide).
Clinician consultations, dedicated coaching and required labs are part of the program, with portal messaging and a weekday phone line.
The program can be canceled any time, and the pill's price is locked across all doses.

What we found on their site
Read on Rex MD's own website in October 2026. Quoted text is theirs.
- The program section reads "Get started today for just $349/month‡ for the Wegovy® pill and provider care. We'll lock-in our special lowest cost for all titration doses which include the 1.5 mg, 4 mg, 9 mg to 25 mg."
- Its weight-management FAQ says "The Rex MD Weight Management Program starts at $75, with the flexibility to cancel anytime" and that the Zepbound vial is "available directly through manufacturer Eli Lilly, starting at $349 per month, cash-pay."
- The same FAQ adds "It typically takes 3-5 business days to process your prescription before shipping overnight."
What we like
- The Wegovy pill is $349 a month including provider care, and that price is locked across all four doses from 1.5 mg to 25 mg
- Prescribes only brand-name medications: the Wegovy pill and pen, Zepbound and Saxenda
- Fully online in all 50 states, usually by questionnaire and secure chat, with free overnight shipping once a prescription is processed
- The program includes clinician consultations, dedicated coaching and required lab work, and you can cancel any time
- HSA and FSA cards are accepted, and a live phone agent is available on weekdays
The caveats
- At $349 a month the Wegovy pill costs more than compounded semaglutide elsewhere
- For Zepbound and the Wegovy pen, the program fee (from $75) is separate from the drug, which is bought cash-pay through the manufacturers' own pharmacies, so the total depends on your prescription
- The program does not accept insurance
- The site and its marketing are aimed at men
- Prescriptions take 3–5 business days to process before they ship, and some states require an audio or video call

Rex MD, answered
Is Rex MD legit?
Yes — Rex MD is LegitScript-certified, a third-party check that a telehealth pharmacy operates within the rules. It dispenses FDA-approved brand-name medication rather than the compounded formulas most programs here sell, which is why its pricing sits higher; confirm your prescriber is US-licensed at intake.
How much does Rex MD cost?
Rex MD lists compounded semaglutide from $349/mo (brand Wegovy pill) — above our category median of $190/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 Rex MD ship to my state?
Yes — Rex MD reports availability in all 50 states, so most people can start within days.
Rex MD vs Bodybuilding Health+ — which should I pick?
They score within a few points of each other: Rex MD at 71/100 and Bodybuilding Health+ at 71/100, so neither wins on the headline number. Rex MD is the better fit for men who want an FDA-approved, needle-free GLP-1 with one monthly price that stays the same as the dose rises. Bodybuilding Health+ suits readers who want their pharmacy and prescriber named before they pay, and who already know they want a compounded injectable. Run the quiz and the weighting shifts to whichever of those matters more to you.
Pricing & state data come from Rex MD'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 Rex MD's site. Not medical advice; see our disclosure.
Rex MD is the men's-health brand of LifeMD, and its weight-management program sticks to FDA-approved, brand-name GLP-1s prescribed online in all 50 states. The headline offer is the Wegovy pill: $349 a month including provider care, with the price locked at every dose from 1.5 mg to 25 mg, which makes budgeting easy and suits anyone who would rather not inject. The Wegovy pen, Zepbound and Saxenda are also prescribed, but for those the program fee starts at $75 and the medication is bought separately at cash prices, so your total depends on the drug and dose. Coaching, labs when needed and free overnight shipping are included, and you can cancel any time. The trade-offs: brand-name pricing is higher than compounded options, insurance is not accepted, and the experience is built for men. Bottom line: a clean, legitimate way to get the Wegovy pill at a predictable monthly price.
