Winner: CoreAge Rx
CoreAge Rx takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 94/100 to 70/100 (grade A vs C). Anyone who wants transparent flat pricing and nationwide access without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch. Andrew Meds still earns its place — a reader with time to reconcile three figures, because the price you are shown depends on which door you walk through.
The score compares published program terms and features; it does not measure clinical outcomes or predict which treatment will suit you.

CoreAge Rx
What we like
- Flat, all-in monthly price with no intro-rate step-ups after month one
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on one account
- Available in all 50 states
- Straightforward, low-friction cancellation
The caveats
- Not the cheapest — flat-price challengers like Trimi Health and Alan Meds undercut its sticker price
- No FDA-approved brand-name option (compounded only)
- Does not yet publicly name its 503A/B pharmacy partner
Andrew Meds
What we like
- The compounding class is disclosed on the product pages themselves, written as 503(A) or 503(B) rather than left to the reader to guess
- The prescribing practice is named in the footer of every page, with its own address, phone number and support address
- Unusually, the Terms tell you outright that you may fill the prescription at any pharmacy of your choice
- A toll-free number and a support address are published, and the account carries a self-serve cancellation control
- Both molecules are listed at labeled weekly doses, with a microdose tier alongside
The caveats
- Three semaglutide prices are live at once — the product page, the microdosing funnel and a four-week supply in a second funnel — and no page reconciles them
- Every Get Started button on the semaglutide product page lands on a microdosing funnel, and the word microdosing appears nowhere on the marketing site
- Both GLP-1 intakes ended by offering semaglutide only, so whether tirzepatide can actually be bought through the current funnels is unresolved
- One funnel's plan ladder does not add up: its stated savings only reconcile if the per-month figures are read as totals, which the page never says
- No pharmacy is named, no individual clinician is named, no NPI is published, and support hours are stated nowhere
