The verdict

Winner: CoreAge Rx

CoreAge Rx takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 94/100 to 78/100 (grade A vs C). Anyone who wants transparent flat pricing and nationwide access without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch. Oak still earns its place — people who want the lowest sticker price for either molecule and would rather buy a package than manage a subscription.

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

Oak

What we like

  • Lowest published prices here — semaglutide from $119/mo, tirzepatide from $185/mo
  • One price across every dosage, so titrating up does not raise the monthly cost
  • No membership or subscription fee, and free shipping
  • All 50 states, with the process offered in Spanish as well as English

The caveats

  • Same-day approval with no video call required means very little clinical contact before a prescription
  • Compounded only — no brand-name pathway, and no oral or sublingual route
  • Sold as one- and three-month packages, so re-ordering is on you
  • No published lab or monitoring programme
