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

Harper Meds

What we like

  • Flat pricing — same cost at every dose, no escalation as you titrate up
  • All-inclusive: doctor consultation, prescription, medication, and free shipping in one price
  • LegitScript-certified; prescriptions reviewed by US-licensed M.D.s
  • Offers both compounded semaglutide ($149/mo) and tirzepatide ($196/mo)

The caveats

  • Membership fee is non-refundable once paid
  • Partner pharmacy is not publicly named
