The verdict

Winner: CoreAge Rx

CoreAge Rx takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 94/100 to 69/100 (grade A vs C). Anyone who wants transparent flat pricing and nationwide access without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch. NP2GO still earns its place — shoppers who want transparent per-dose pricing with pay-as-you-go or membership options.

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

NP2GO

What we like

  • Full per-dose pricing matrix published — you can see the cost at every dose tier before committing
  • Two pricing models (Pay As You Go and Month-to-Month Membership) let you match your usage pattern
  • Compounded semaglutide starts at $150/mo (0.25 mg, Pay As You Go) — competitive with the market low end
  • Covers 39 states plus DC
  • Files prior authorizations on your behalf — uncommon for compounded telehealth

The caveats

  • High-dose tirzepatide runs $475–$600/mo on Pay As You Go (membership at $399/mo is better for high doses)
  • Not LegitScript-certified
  • Compounding pharmacy partner not named publicly
  • Not available in 11 states (AL, GA, IN, LA, MO, MS, NC, OH, SC, TN, WI)
  • Peptide, hormone, and aesthetic services are Oklahoma-only
