Head-to-head dispatch
Noom Med vs ShedRx
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
Noom Med pairs Noom's cognitive behavioral therapy curriculum and 1-on-1 dietitian coaching with a broad prescription menu — brand semaglutide and tirzepatide, the Wegovy pill and Foundayo tablet, generic liraglutide, and Noom's own compounded GLP-1Rx tiers.
Marked down on: No price for any medication appears on the page — every tile is a "Get started" button into the intake
Desk Score
Widest formulation spread in the ranking — injection, liquid drops, lozenges and a daily oral pill, plus a real brand Zepbound lane.
$199/mo sema · $299/mo tirz
Marked down on: The advertised "as low as $239" tirzepatide rate needs a twelve-month commitment — month-to-month is $299
ShedRx takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 85/100 (B) against 60/100 (C) for Noom Med. Noom Med still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
