Winner: CoreAge Rx
CoreAge Rx takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 94/100 to 66/100 (grade A vs C). Anyone who wants transparent flat pricing and nationwide access without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch. Lavender Sky Health still earns its place — patients willing to compare the exact pharmacy, dose tier, supply length and consultation charge before ordering.
The score compares published program terms and features; it does not measure clinical outcomes or predict which treatment will suit you.

- 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
Lavender Sky Health
What we like
- Publishes pharmacy-specific treatment prices and supply lengths
- Monthly starter options exist alongside prepaid multiweek tiers
- No automatic subscription billing according to the company
- Branded and oral treatment options are listed separately
The caveats
- A starter medication price does not include the new-patient consultation
- New consultation is $65; a follow-up is $40 when required
- Monthly starter prices apply to specified pharmacies and dose limits
- Branded care adds a separate treatment-plan charge and excludes the medication
- Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved
