Head-to-head comparison
KERNX Health vs Zeuss
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
A nationwide cash-pay program that answers the two questions this desk asks first — what does my dose cost, and who is prescribing it — and declines to answer a third, which pharmacy fills it.
$129/mo (see conditions) sema · $229/mo (see conditions) tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: The dispensing pharmacy is disclosed only in post-purchase paperwork, so no 503A or 503B status can be checked in advance
Desk Score
Zeuss is a multi-vertical telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide for weight loss alongside TRT, HRT, skin, and hair services.
$125/mo sema · $175/mo tirz · Verified June 2026
Marked down on: 503A pharmacy partner not named (only generic '503A and 503B state-licensed' framing)
