LifeRx.md review

What it is

LifeRx.md, Inc. is a telehealth company based in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, that says it has served more than 100,000 patients. It provides the technology platform and non-clinical management services to independent medical groups, whose contracted physicians and nurse practitioners do the prescribing; the company itself doesn't practice medicine. Prescriptions are filled by state-licensed 503A compounding pharmacies, which it doesn't name. Beyond weight loss, it treats erectile dysfunction and hair loss and offers NAD⁺ and vitamin B12 therapy, and its about page mentions peptides and hormone care. It says it's available in all 50 states and D.C., though the services offered vary by state. It's self-pay only, accepts HSA and FSA cards along with U.S. credit and debit cards, and doesn't bill insurance, Medicare or Medicaid. Support is available 24 hours a day by phone and email, and it runs a patient app on iOS and Android. Its providers don't prescribe controlled substances.

How it works

You start with an online intake about your health history and goals, or by booking an appointment through its sign-up page. A licensed provider in your state reviews your information, and for weight-loss treatment an initial video consultation is required, where the provider goes over your history, goals and options and sets your medication and dose. Lab work can be coordinated if your provider wants it. If you're prescribed, medication ships from a partner pharmacy and arrives within three to five business days of the order being processed. After that, you stay in touch with your care team to check in and adjust the plan, and a care coordinator is assigned to answer questions. Because there's no subscription, you start each month's order yourself, by contacting the company or through the patient portal, rather than having refills ship automatically. That gives you control over every charge, but it also means you have to remember to reorder before you run out.

Pricing transparency

The GLP-1 page advertises pricing starting at $200, with an asterisk noting that pricing, eligibility and other terms apply. It promises no higher-dose upcharges, no membership or subscription fee and no insurance requirement, and HSA and FSA cards are accepted. The page doesn't say which medication or supply length the $200 covers, or whether the provider consultation is included. Its terms describe three kinds of charges, platform services, medical services and product charges, with products itemized before purchase, so ask for the full monthly total before you pay. Services are requested and paid for one month at a time, with no automatic renewal. The refund policy is strict: medication is final once it has been dispensed or shipped, and consultation fees are non-refundable once the visit has taken place. An order can be canceled only before the prescription goes to the pharmacy and before a shipping label is created. Disputes go to individual arbitration under New Jersey law, with a 30-day window to opt out.

Branded vs compounded

LifeRx.md prescribes compounded GLP-1 medication. Its weight-loss page carries the FDA's required disclosure that the compounded drugs aren't FDA-approved, haven't been reviewed for safety, effectiveness or quality, and that FDA-approved semaglutide products are available, but it doesn't list the specific medications or forms on the page, so confirm whether you'd receive semaglutide or tirzepatide during the consultation. Brand-name Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound and Mounjaro aren't advertised. Its FAQ says it's LegitScript-certified, but no LegitScript seal or certification number is shown, so check its status on LegitScript's own site. Its separate NAD⁺ and B12 program uses injections prescribed through the same account. A search of the FDA warning-letter database under LifeRx.md and LifeRx returned no letters.

Pros and watch-outs

The evidence behind what LifeRx.md prescribes

We grade the molecules, not the marketing. Here is what the human data actually shows for each thing on their menu.

• What the semaglutide weight-loss trials actually showed

  STEP 1, STEP 4, and SELECT — the efficacy, the rebound, and the cardiovascular signal, read straight from the primary literature.

• Compounded vs branded GLP-1: regulatory status, sourcing and the evidence

  Compounded GLP-1 isn't FDA-approved, the shortage exception behind it ended in 2025, the FDA moved against mass-marketed copies in 2026, and the trial data belong to the branded product. Here's the precise picture.

• NAD+ precursors (NR and NMN): what the human trials actually show

  They raise NAD+ and look safe short-term — but human evidence is surrogate-marker level, and no trial shows they extend healthspan.
