Head-to-head dispatch
RxSpan MD 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
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.
Marked down on: Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved — not the same as Wegovy/Ozempic or Zepbound
Desk Score
Widest formulation spread in the ranking — injection, liquid drops, lozenges and a daily oral pill, plus a real brand Zepbound lane.
Marked down on: The advertised "as low as $239" tirzepatide rate needs a twelve-month commitment — month-to-month is $299
RxSpan MD takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 86/100 (B) against 85/100 (B) for ShedRx. ShedRx still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
