Head-to-head comparison
BetterMe Rx vs HealthSource
Two GLP-1 providers, one scorecard. Both are graded on the same six Desk Score dimensions — here is how they stack up, and which one fits you.
Desk Score
Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as a weekly injection or a daily tablet, six named pharmacies, all 50 states — and not one price on the public site.
Marked down on: Pricing not published on the site — gated behind the intake
Desk Score
HealthSource sells compounded semaglutide, compounded tirzepatide and a nightly sublingual tirzepatide tablet in all 50 states, charged every four weeks rather than by the calendar month.
$199 per 4 weeks sema · $299 per 4 weeks tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: You pay before the medical intake — the questionnaire link appears only after checkout, and withdrawing once you have filled it in costs you $25–$45 for the provider review
BetterMe Rx takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 87/100 (B+) against 84/100 (B) for HealthSource. HealthSource still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
