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

boostAGErx

What we like

  • Compounded GLP-1 starting around $95/mo (12-month plan paid upfront)
  • Free shipping and clinical evaluation included
  • Membership fee refunded in full if you're not approved
  • Also offers peptide therapy such as sermorelin
  • 100% online with licensed providers — no clinic visit

The caveats

  • Billing runs on a 28-day cycle rather than a calendar month — thirteen charges a year, so the $145 tirzepatide rate is $1,885 a year, an effective $157/mo
  • The terms call the charge a 'membership fee' while the marketing carousel says 'No Membership Fees Ever'
  • Prices are rendered entirely in JavaScript; the page's HTML body is empty, so nothing is readable without running the bundle
  • Shipped compounded medication is non-refundable
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
