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

Lyfe Rx

What we like

  • Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide available
  • Delivery to all 50 states with 1–3 day pharmacy turnaround

The caveats

  • No visible LegitScript or PCAB accreditation
  • Also sells non-prescription supplements ('Tirzepatide Weight Loss Supplement', 'Lipo Burn')
  • Shopify-based e-commerce storefront — less clinical infrastructure
  • FDA issued this company a warning letter dated 9 September 2025; the letter is public in FDA's warning-letter database
