Head-to-head comparison
Renlo Health vs StackMD
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
One of the few programs whose headline is the actual monthly rate, with the prescribing physician and the dispensing pharmacy both named.
$199/mo (see conditions) sema · $269/mo (see conditions) tirz · Verified September 2026
Marked down on: A struck-through $399 sits beside the price with no published basis — Renlo never says what it was, when it applied or to whom.
Desk Score
StackMD is a New York telehealth platform (Medical 360 HC PLLC) selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, both formulated with B12 and glycine, alongside NAD+, sermorelin and other longevity peptides.
$199 (see conditions) sema · $299 (see conditions) tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: ⛔ Four different semaglutide figures across two pages in August 2026 — $125 and $125/month on the home page, $199 and $99/month on the product page — under a header that promises 'Transparent Pricing'
Renlo Health takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 80/100 (B−) against 69/100 (C) for StackMD. StackMD still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
