Graded on whether a price is published, checkable, and still true at month two — how we grade · how we verify prices
Rex MD sells one weight-loss product at one price: $349 a month for the Wegovy pill with provider care, held flat across all four titration doses.
The two numbers match, which is the point — no first-month rate, no dose ladder, no prepay discount hiding behind the headline. What is missing is the footnote the figure is marked with, which the page never prints.
- $349, as advertised
- Month-to-month price published
- Coverage not verified
The verdict
A single clear number, which is rare. It is also marked with a footnote the page never prints, and it is not the lowest price available for that pill.

Pros and cons
What we like
- One price, published twice on the same page, and the two agree — which is more than several sellers we review manage.
- The rate is locked across every titration dose, so the bill does not climb as the dose does.
- It sells the FDA-approved oral tablet rather than a compounded preparation, so the compounding disclosures do not apply.
- Provider care is stated as part of the figure rather than added at checkout.
What could be better
- The $349 carries a footnote marker in both places it appears and the page prints no footnote to go with it.
- The page promises the lowest cost available for the drug while the maker's own pharmacy publishes a lower self-pay price for the same tablet.
- A provider can prescribe the Wegovy pen, the page says so, and no figure for the pen appears anywhere.
- The sermorelin program is quoted as a range rather than a price: $99 up front, then between $250 and $299 a month depending on what is prescribed.
What it is
A men's telehealth brand — erectile dysfunction, hair, sleep, testosterone — that added the oral Wegovy tablet as its weight-loss line. It is not an independent company: its own terms name LifeMD as the entity behind it, so what we found reviewing LifeMD applies here too, under a different brand and a different price.
What it sells is the FDA-approved pill rather than a compounded vial, which puts it on the expensive side of the brand-versus-compounded split and removes the compounding questions entirely.

What it actually costs at Rex MD
$349 a month, twice on the page, for the pill plus provider care. The rate is explicitly locked across 1.5 mg, 4 mg, 9 mg and 25 mg, so the dose ladder that inflates most GLP-1 bills does not apply.
Both instances of that figure carry a double-dagger footnote marker. We read the page end to end and there is no footnote. A qualifier was written, marked, and then left off the page.
The sentence around the price promises the lowest cost available for that drug. The manufacturer's own pharmacy publishes $149, $199 and $299 for the same pill by dose to a self-pay buyer — without provider care attached, which is the difference the claim never mentions. That is the kind of superlative our grading treats as a caveat. NovoCare Pharmacy is that counter, and it prices every dose separately.
Who it's wrong for
- Skip it if you already have a prescriber. You would be paying the care premium twice, and the same pill is priced lower at the maker's own counter.
- Skip it if you want the injection. The page says a provider can prescribe the Wegovy pen and never prices it, which is the shape a starting-at headline usually hides.
- Skip it if you need to know the state position. No state list appears on any of the four pages we read.
- Comparing the same tablet elsewhere: ZipHealth publishes a dose ladder for it and adds a flat service fee, and Hims sells it behind a required monthly membership.

Common questions
How much is Rex MD weight loss a month?
$349 a month for the Wegovy pill with provider care. The rate is the same at 1.5 mg, 4 mg, 9 mg and 25 mg, so the dose does not change the bill.
Is Rex MD the same company as LifeMD?
Yes. The Rex MD terms name LifeMD, Inc. trading as REX MD as the entity behind the site, at a New York address, with the same support line.
Does Rex MD sell the Wegovy injection?
The page says a provider can prescribe the pen as well as the pill, but no price for the pen appears anywhere on the site we read.
What is the footnote on the $349?
There isn't one. The figure carries a double-dagger marker in both places it appears on the weight page, and the page prints no matching note.
Does Rex MD sell peptides?
Sermorelin, inside its testosterone program rather than the weight line. It quotes $99 up front for labs and a consultation, then $250 to $299 a month.
Why we gave Rex MD a C
Read the full grading rationale
One weight-loss price, consistent wherever it appears: $349 a month for the Wegovy pill with provider care, flat across all four doses. Three problems. The figure carries a footnote marker with no footnote anywhere on the page. The page promises the lowest cost available for that pill, while the manufacturer's own pharmacy sells it from $149 to a self-pay buyer. And it offers the Wegovy pen without pricing it. No state list on the four pages we read.
