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
Hormonally Balanced
What we like
- Physician-led women's hormone clinic with concierge model
- Nationwide telehealth availability
- Semaglutide integrated with hormone care for women
- Named physician (Dr. Zachareas) oversees prescriptions
The caveats
- No pricing published online; must call or submit a form

- Semaglutide only; no tirzepatide listed
- Compounded vs brand formulation not disclosed
