Ranked #19 for women · Grade B−
Luna Fit
Best for: Women who want to be able to check the pharmacy and the prescriber before they buy, and who may want to move between compounded, oral and brand-name options on one account — provided they pick the Monthly plan themselves rather than accepting the prepay the funnel has already selected.
Visit RxSpan MDThe verdict for women
MadeMed edges out RxSpan MD on the Luna Fit Score, 84 to 81 (B vs B−). Women who expect to titrate and want to know today what month six costs, and who want an oral route available without switching provider. The reasoning behind that number is in what we found reviewing MadeMed.
RxSpan MD is still a genuine option — one of the very few programs here that will tell you who compounds your medication and who signs the prescription — four pharmacies named with phone numbers, two physicians named with NPIs that resolve — wrapped around a full menu that runs from compounded semaglutide to brand Zepbound. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities; our RxSpan MD write-up for women goes through each of them, and if neither of these two is the one, the full field we rank against RxSpan MD widens the field.

Luna Fit
MadeMed
Ranked #6 · Grade B
What we like
- One price at every dose, published dose by dose — semaglutide $239/mo from 0.25mg to 2.4mg, tirzepatide $399/mo from 2.5mg to 15mg
- LegitScript verified, with board-certified physician review and US compounding pharmacies
- Oral semaglutide and oral tirzepatide are both offered alongside the injections
The caveats
- Compounded medication is not FDA-approved the way brand Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound are
- 40 states rather than nationwide — check yours before you start
- Tirzepatide is among the pricier entries in this ranking at $399/mo quarterly
Luna Fit
RxSpan MD
Ranked #19 · Grade B−
What we like
- Four dispensing pharmacies named outright, with phone numbers — Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts and Casa Pharma Rx — where most of this ranking says only "our partner pharmacies"
- The prescribing group is named too, and checkable: Lion MD, led by Dr Ana Lisa Carr, MD (NPI 1689841744) with Dr Kelly Tenbrink, MD (NPI 1346482684). Both resolve as active physicians in the federal NPPES registry
- A real brand-name lane with prices on the page rather than an enquiry form — Ozempic $1,299, Wegovy $1,349 and Zepbound $1,069 a month — alongside the compounded line, so switching does not mean switching provider
The caveats
- The plan selector arrives with the 3-month prepay already chosen, not Monthly, and badges the 3-, 6- and 12-month tiers alike as "Max Saving" — so the default path takes $657 up front rather than $249, and the headline figures are footnoted "(For the first month)"
- Its FAQ says "no long-term commitments" on the same site where the 12-month semaglutide plan is a single $2,327 charge and the 12-month tirzepatide plan is $3,228. The freedom is real on the monthly plan; it is not what the prepay tiers are
- Brand-name bundles carry a $50 medical review fee if a clinician does not end up prescribing for you — worth knowing before you start an intake for Wegovy or Zepbound
