About Iron Med RX
Iron Med RX (IRON RX Telehealth) is a Dallas-based online weight-loss provider offering compounded GLP-1 with licensed-provider oversight and home delivery. Its lineup is unusually broad — compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in both oral tablets and injection, plus microdosing, longevity support and supplements. You book a virtual appointment, a clinician builds a plan, and medication ships to your door. Prices aren't shown publicly until you create an account, it labels its oral semaglutide 'research-grade,' and it doesn't list the states it serves or name its compounding pharmacy.

Vytora Health is a 50-state-plus-DC telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide alongside brand-name Mounjaro and Zepbound, plus NAD+ and sermorelin peptides. It names its pharmacy partners publicly — Vials Pharmacy and Greenwich Biosciences — and discloses its operating physician group, uncommon transparency for the category. Compounded semaglutide runs $180/mo ($150 on a 3-month bundle) and tirzepatide $249/mo ($200 bundled).

Iron Med RX
What we like
- Unusually broad GLP-1 lineup — compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in both oral tablets and injection, plus microdosing and longevity add-ons
- Online process with licensed-provider oversight, virtual consults, progress tracking and home delivery
- Oral tablet options for people who would rather not inject
Watch-outs
- Prices are not shown publicly — you only see costs after creating an account, so you cannot compare value upfront
- Labels its oral semaglutide 'research-grade' — wording usually tied to research/non-prescription peptides; confirm it is prescribed for human use
- Does not name its compounding pharmacy or list the states it serves; the listed address is a private mailbox (PMB), not a clinic
- Compounded GLP-1 only — no brand-name or insurance options; small, lightly documented operation
Vytora Health
What we like
- All 50 states plus DC, with per-state video-vs-audio compliance disclosed
- Both compounded and brand-name options on one platform — uncommon
- LegitScript Approved and HIPAA compliant
- Pharmacy partners named publicly: Vials Pharmacy (TX) and Greenwich Biosciences
- Operating entity disclosed: Wasef Health, PC (Pinellas Park, FL)
- Competitive monthly pricing ($180 sema / $249 tirz) plus a 3-month bundle saving 17%
- Brand-name Mounjaro and Zepbound available at $1,399/mo for FDA-approved options
Watch-outs
- Brand-name Mounjaro/Zepbound at $1,399/mo is near retail — insured patients may do better via LillyDirect Self Pay ($449-$699/mo)
- Compounded tirzepatide at $249/mo is mid-market, above the $149-199 floor
- Dose tiers aren't broken out — 'all doses included' means low-dose patients pay the same as high-dose
- Initial consultation cost not shown on the public pricing page
- Limited per-prescriber state licensure detail
