Pros & Cons
MedLeanRx
What we like
- Offers FDA-approved brand GLP-1 — Wegovy (semaglutide), Zepbound (tirzepatide), and Foundayo (orforglipron) — plus compounded GLP-1 and oral options
- Physician-guided: licensed physicians review every patient, with a named clinician and ongoing clinical support
- Fast, low-friction start — a ~5-minute assessment, 24-48 hour provider review, and medication shipped with free shipping
- Program fees from $99-$149/mo; established Texas-licensed telehealth practice with a published address
Watch-outs
- Texas only — service is limited to patients in Texas (Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio)
- For brand meds the monthly fee is a clinical charge 'plus the cost of medication' — true total runs higher than the $99-$149/mo headline
- Limited published policies (Privacy, Terms, SMS terms; no HIPAA notice found)
- No LegitScript certification displayed; compounding pharmacy not named
Noom Med
What we like
- Combines GLP-1 medication with CBT behavior change
- Dedicated dietitian included in every plan
- Highest support score in fitness app category
- Integrated care team for medication and coaching
- Noom's proven behavioral curriculum
Watch-outs
- Available in only 40 states — excludes AK, HI, ID, MT, NM, SD, VT, WV, WY, ND
- More expensive than app-only alternatives
- Requires commitment to both medication and coaching program
Our Verdict
Noom Med edges out MedLeanRx with a higher overall score of 8.6/10 and is particularly strong for psychology + medication combo. MedLeanRx remains a solid alternative, especially if you're looking for Texas patients wanting physician-guided access to brand or compounded GLP-1.
