Head-to-head dispatch

ElixaMD vs RxSpan MD

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.

Dispatch #152
ElixaMD

ElixaMD is a doctor-guided weight-loss membership at $99 for the first month and $199/month thereafter — a price published only on its glp1.elixamd.com lander, never on elixamd.com, whose header promises "clear pricing" beside no figure at all.

$199/mo after a $99 first month (published only on the glp1.elixamd.com lander; elixamd.com itself shows no price, compounded) sema · Verified August 29, 2026

Marked down on: ⛔ No price appears anywhere on elixamd.com — not on the home page, not on any policy page — while the running header cycles the words 'CLEAR PRICING'. The only figures on the property are one subdomain over, at glp1.elixamd.com

vs
Dispatch #12Desk pick
RxSpan MD

A physician-founded desk with one of the widest menus in the ranking — compounded and brand-name GLP-1 across injectable and oral routes, microdosing, plus longevity, hair, and sexual-health lines — with transparent, all-inclusive pricing across all 50 states.

From $194/mo sema · $329/mo tirz

Marked down on: Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved — not the same as Wegovy/Ozempic or Zepbound

RxSpan MD takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 86/100 (B) against 70/100 (C) for ElixaMD. ElixaMD still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.

CoreAge Rx tops every dispatch at 94/100

Whichever of these two you lean toward, the Desk's #1-rated provider outscores them both. The Desk's top dispatch: one price at every dose, both molecules, all 50 states — but the $99 and $149 figures are 12-month plans paid up front, not a monthly bill.
