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
LifeRx.md
What we like
- Flat pricing that does not rise with dose: semaglutide ~$200, tirzepatide ~$275 per 5-week supply
- LegitScript certified; prescriptions filled by state-licensed 503A pharmacies
- Available in all 50 states
- HSA and FSA payments accepted
- Required video telehealth consult ensures clinician oversight
The caveats
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved for safety, efficacy or quality
- Extra fees stack up: ~$30 shipping, $49.95 initial consult, $25 follow-ups
- True monthly cost (~$255) is higher than the headline medication price
- Specific list of supported states not enumerated on site
