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

Curve

What we like

  • Offers both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, with every dose priced the same so cost does not rise as you titrate up.
  • LegitScript-certified (seal #51079066) and names both its 503A compounding pharmacy, VialsRx, and its provider network, Beluga Health.
  • Transparent tiered pricing with a real month-to-month option; consultation, medication, and free expedited shipping included, no membership.
  • Available in all 50 states with same-day provider review; no insurance needed and HSA/FSA accepted.

The caveats

  • Very new (2026 launch) with a thin track record; the site still shows a Webflow template credit and a leftover Cora reference in its Terms.
  • The cheapest headline rates ($99 semaglutide / $135 tirzepatide) require a 12-month prepay; true month-to-month is $175 and $225.
  • Both product pages currently display an out-of-stock status, so availability may be inconsistent.
  • Compounded medications are not FDA-approved or therapeutically equivalent to Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound.
