Visit Vytora Health

Nurx and Vytora Health are both GLP-1 Providers competing for the same patients, but they make different trade-offs on price, coverage, and what's included. In our scoring, Nurx starts lower at $79/mo versus $150/mo, and Vytora Health edges ahead overall (8.4 vs 7.5 out of 10). Below we break down pricing, what each plan covers, the six-dimension score, pros and cons, and exactly who should pick which.

Pricing

Nurx

Provider support fee (recurring; medication billed separately)program fee
$79/mo

Nurx's own recurring charge, verbatim: 'If you receive weight management treatment from Nurx, you will pay a recurring monthly $79 provider support fee.' A separate ONE-TIME $79 consultation fee applies first: 'Anyone who requests weight management treatment will be charged a $79 consultation fee.' Neither appears in any headline price. Medication is on top of both and Nurx does not dispense the brand GLP-1s — every pen is marked 'In-person pharmacy pick up only' / 'not shipped by Nurx', with cost given only as an average: Zepbound and Ozempic and Mounjaro from $1,000/mo, Wegovy and Saxenda from $1,300/mo, Victoza from $650/mo. Oral options Nurx does fill run $15-$75/mo (metformin $15, topiramate $15-30, bupropion+naltrexone $60, the Nurx 3-in-1 pill $75), so a 3-in-1 reader pays $154/mo all-in, not $75.

About Nurx

Established women's telehealth brand. For weight management it prescribes brand-name GLP-1s for in-person pharmacy pickup rather than shipping them, and fills lower-cost oral options itself. Its own charges are a one-time $79 consultation and a recurring $79/mo provider support fee, both excluded from every advertised medication price.

About Vytora Health

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).

Pros & Cons

Nurx

What we like

  • Both semaglutide and tirzepatide available
  • Compounded GLP-1 access

Watch-outs

  • A one-time $79 consultation fee and a recurring $79/mo provider support fee sit on top of every advertised price
  • Does not ship brand GLP-1s — every pen is in-person pharmacy pickup only, at an unquoted pharmacy price
  • Publishes no price for its compounded semaglutide, and offers no compounded tirzepatide at all
  • Limited public information on program details

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
