Side-by-side comparison
| Feature | ShedRx | Strut Health |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Broad GLP-1 menu and multiple formats | Low-cost compounded GLP-1 with plain compounding disclosures |
| Medication type | Compounded and brand-name options | Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide — sublingual/oral and once-weekly injection |
| Pricing model | Starting prices by product | Monthly auto-refill subscription; dose-tier 'starting at' entry pricing; medical-necessity gated |
| Semaglutide price | From $299/mo (injection); lozenges from $199/mo | Compounded — sublingual/oral from $99/mo, injectable from $149/mo (auto-refill 'starting at' entry-dose pricing) |
| Tirzepatide price | From $399/mo (injection) | Compounded — injectable from $199/mo; oral lozenge from $199/mo (lozenge only if a GLP-1 injection fails or can't be used) |
| Key watchout | Verify higher-dose pricing and exact formulation before checkout | Entry prices are the lowest-dose auto-refill rate — higher doses cost more, so confirm your dose at intake. Oral/sublingual and lozenge options require you to have failed or be unable to use an injectable GLP-1. |
