Eden, Wellorithm and RxSpan MD, plus 4 more in the table. EllieMD does not publish its states.
Yes: RxSpan MD, Luvo Health and Wisp sell FDA-approved brand-name pens. EllieMD sells compounded medication, which costs less but has not been through FDA review.
Usually not. A new seller's clinician writes a fresh prescription after reading your history, and a compounded prescription is tied to the pharmacy that filled it. Before you switch, note the medication, the dose you reached and the pharmacy, and do not change your dose on your own while you move.
