Pros and cons
Numan
Pros
- A single account covers supplements and clinic work, with multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3 alongside online gp, prescriptions and pharmacy.
- Clinician cover is broad, with doctor, nurse practitioner and pharmacist on the team, which is more than a vitamins only shop offers.
- A 14 day money back window gives new customers a defined exit, and delivery is free.
Cons
- Supplements sit mid-table on entry price, ranked 87 of 157, so a cheaper multivitamin exists.
- Price per serving ranks 66 of 121, so a lower daily cost is available elsewhere.
- Numan covers GB and JE, so the weight loss plan and clinician access stop at those markets.
ShedRx
Pros
- A single membership covers online gp, prescriptions and weight loss, so online GP appointments, prescriptions, weight loss, hair loss and sexual health sit under one plan.
- The roster includes doctor, nurse practitioner and dietitian, which lets weight loss work involve a dietitian rather than a prescriber alone.
- Support runs through email, chat and phone, and free delivery is included on orders.
Cons
- Insurance accepted reads no, so consultations and prescriptions are paid for directly rather than claimed back through a health plan.
- The monthly plan price of $159 sits at 34 of 37 brands ranked on that figure, so entry cost sits towards the higher end.
- Appointments are scheduled, so readers who want a same-day answer wait for a set slot instead.
Who each suits
Numan
Who it suits
- Readers who want a daily supplement and a clinician backed programme under the same brand, with online gp, prescriptions and pharmacy on offer.
- UK and Jersey customers, since the service is built around GB and JE and next day delivery.
- Anyone who values a defined exit, with a 14 day money back period and email, phone and help centre support.
Who should look elsewhere
- Readers who want a pure vitamins only shop, since ProSolution Plus and TestRX keep their range to vitamins minerals.
- Readers who need a wider supplement catalogue for gut health or greens, an area where DocMorris lists more types under multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3.
- Anyone outside GB and JE, where the service and delivery do not extend.
ShedRx
Who it suits
- Adults in the US managing weight loss and hair loss through the same provider, with doctor, nurse practitioner and dietitian on the roster.
- People who book ahead and prefer set appointment slots, since consultations are scheduled.
- Shoppers who spread a single membership across several service lines and value 120 days of money back.
Who should look elsewhere
- Readers who want a prescription weight loss programme only may prefer FeelGood GLP-1, whose services are online gp, prescriptions and weight loss.
- Anyone focused on sexual health alone can go direct to FeelGood ED, which lists online gp, prescriptions and weight loss.
- Members who want dispensing and skin care alongside consultations may prefer DocMorris, which covers online gp, prescriptions and pharmacy.

Questions about each
Numan
What does Numan cost?+
Supplements start at £28 for the flagship multivitamin, and the weight loss programme runs at £46.20 a month. A doctor's consultation is priced at £60. Numan is a subscription brand, so a supplement plan renews on the billing cycle chosen at signup.
Can I buy sleep and stress supplements from Numan?+
The range covers multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3, so sleep and stress formulas sit alongside core vitamins rather than standing alone. ProSolution Plus and TestRX both list only vitamins minerals, so a reader wanting sleep support next to a multivitamin has fewer options there.
ShedRx
How much is the ShedRx plan each month?+
The ShedRx monthly plan is priced at $159. That is a membership figure rather than a per-consultation fee, so readers can weigh it against single appointment prices elsewhere, which reach €131.54 at the top of the range. Free delivery is included, so nothing is added on top.
What does the ShedRx membership cover?+
The service list covers online gp, prescriptions and weight loss, so a single membership spans online GP appointments, prescriptions, weight loss, hair loss and sexual health. That range is what separates ShedRx from providers built around a single condition, and it suits members carrying several goals. It also means a member can start with one service line and add another without moving to a different provider.
