Winner: CoreAge Rx
CoreAge Rx takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 94/100 to 71/100 (grade A vs C). Anyone who wants transparent flat pricing and nationwide access without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch. Harbor still earns its place — adults seeking the lowest-cost compounded GLP-1 with physician oversight and a 12-month money-back guarantee.
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
Harbor
What we like
- Compounded semaglutide from $99/mo and tirzepatide from $149/mo — among the lowest we track headline prices in the market

- HSA/FSA eligible; no hidden fees, no insurance billed
The caveats
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved; compounding pharmacy names not publicly disclosed
