Updated September 2026Brand pill, priced; pen, notRex MD review
The tablet is an approved brand product with a published figure. The injection is too, and its price belongs to someone else.
The verdict
Rex MD publishes $349 a month for the FDA-approved Wegovy pill including provider care, read June 2026, across four strengths. Its injectable is the brand Wegovy pen, for which it publishes no price and routes the buyer to a third party.

Rex MD sells the approved oral semaglutide product with provider care bundled into one figure, alongside an injectable line it does not price itself.
Who writes the prescription, and what do they see?
Provider care is named as inside the $349, which is a clearer statement of what the clinical relationship costs than most sellers make. What it covers in practice is not itemized.
Two things separate this from most of the market. The product is approved rather than compounded, so the usual caution about an unreviewed preparation does not apply. And the seller declines to price its own injectable, sending a reader to the manufacturer's channel for a figure it does not control.
What happens when the dose goes up?
The pill is priced across 1.5, 4, 9 and 25 mg at one figure, which answers the dose question directly for that line. The pen has no published figure at any dose here, so the question does not arise until a reader is on someone else's site.
What the price includes
$349 a month is $2,094 over six months, with provider care inside it. The $499 a reader will meet for the pen is NovoCare's cash-pay rate rather than a Rex MD price, so it should not be attributed to this seller. A Zepbound vial product appears in the navigation with no published price at all.
What it claims, and what it cites
The Wegovy pill and the Wegovy pen are FDA-approved brand products. Nothing here is compounded, which removes a category of risk and replaces it with a higher price.
Where it holds up, and where it does not
- Strength: An FDA-approved product, not compounded
- Strength: One figure covers four strengths
- Strength: Provider care named as included
- Strength: Coverage across fifty states
- Limitation: No price published for the injectable
- Limitation: The $499 belongs to a third party
- Limitation: A Zepbound product carries no figure
- Limitation: The pill costs more than compounded lines
What the evidence says about this kind of treatment
The assessment above is about Rex MD. These are about the drugs it sells, and they are traced to the primary literature.
- Right for
- A reader who wants an approved oral product with the clinician's cost stated inside it.
- Wrong for
- A reader comparing against compounded prices, which describe a different product.

- What does Rex MD charge for the injection?
- Nothing is published. It routes the buyer to NovoCare's own $499 cash-pay rate, which is a third party's charge rather than a Rex MD price.
- Is the pill compounded?
- No. It is the FDA-approved Wegovy pill, priced at $349 a month across 1.5, 4, 9 and 25 mg with provider care included.
- Why is it dearer than compounded sellers?
- Because it is a different product. An approved medicine carries trial evidence and a reviewed manufacturing chain that a compounded vial does not.
- Is Rex MD legit?
- Rex MD is a GLP-1 telehealth sellers service. Its stated availability: All 50 states. What our record does not establish: whether it bills insurance and how its intake works. Ask for those in writing before you pay.
- Is Rex MD expensive compared with other GLP-1 telehealth sellers?
- Rex MD publishes a starting figure of $349/mo. Across the 149 GLP-1 telehealth sellers we review that publish a single monthly figure, those run $76 to $369 with a median of $179, which puts Rex MD above the median. The other 11 GLP-1 telehealth sellers we review quote only after an intake or price by dose, so they are not in that comparison. A starting figure is not a bill — labs, consultations and shipping are often charged separately, so confirm what your own quote includes.
