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
MedLeanRx
What we like
- Compounded semaglutide $149/mo in both weekly injection and daily oral tablet form
- Brand pathway for Wegovy, Zepbound, and Foundayo (orforglipron) at a $99/mo fee plus medication cost
- Intro bundle: 2 months of compounded tirzepatide (2 mg weekly) for $325 — about $163/mo
- LegitScript seal displayed; named supervising physician (Dr. Johnson Uzor, MD)
- Free shipping, no hidden fees, and cancel-anytime plans per homepage trust chips
The caveats
- Texas only — not available in the other 49 states
- Compounded tirzepatide is $269/mo at standard pricing, above the ~$249 market median
- Strict no-refund policy: 'All sales are final' per Terms & Conditions
- Pharmacy partner not publicly named — a transparency gap for a compounding service
- Legal entity name and founding details not published on the site
