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
Healthicare
What we like
- Both compounded and full brand-name menu (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound) on one platform
- Pharmacy partner named publicly: Jungle Jim's Pharmacy (F&F Pharmacies Inc.), Fairfield, OH
- Clinical lead named publicly: Dr. Jonah Mink, Beluga Health
- Compounded semaglutide from $147.90/mo on the 3-month plan ($174/mo billed monthly) — lower end of the segment
The caveats
- Not available in several states including CA, NV, NJ, NC, TX, MA — verify your state first
- Brand-name first-month pricing of $1,199.99–$1,299.99 is at or above cash retail; value is on the compounded tier
- Footer references 'Sunshine Health Studios Inc.' — relationship to the domain owner is unclear
