Head-to-head dispatch
BetterMe Rx vs Telos Rx
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
The broadest published catalog in the ranking — compounded GLP-1s plus oral and microdosed tirzepatide, PT-141, intranasal NAD+, and recovery peptides — all compounded and not FDA-approved.
$99/mo (injectable, month-to-month; the $49 headline is only the FIRST month of the 12-month prepaid ORAL plan, which renews at $129/mo billed every 48 weeks) sema · $139/mo injectable · $129/mo oral · $116/mo microdosed (microdosing is tirzepatide, not semaglutide) tirz
Marked down on: Everything is compounded and not FDA-approved — including all peptides and the NAD+ spray
BetterMe Rx takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 86/100 (B) against 85/100 (B) for Telos Rx. Telos Rx still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
