Winner: CoreAge Rx
CoreAge Rx takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 94/100 to 67/100 (grade A vs C). Anyone who wants transparent flat pricing and nationwide access without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch.

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
Obu Health
What we like
- LegitScript-certified with publicly displayed ID (44206977)
- Two named 503A compounding-pharmacy partners (Manifest Pharmacy SC + RX Compounding Store FL) — transparency above category baseline
- Lower advertised semaglutide starting price ($190) than most multi-product peer platforms
- Multi-product offering (GLP-1s + NAD+ + sermorelin + generic ED + birth control) for single-platform users
- 24-hour US board-certified physician response window
The caveats
- Per-dose pricing tiers not transparently published on product pages — only 'starting from' prices visible
- No explicit state-coverage list disclosed; FAQ confirms restrictions exist 'based on state' without enumeration
- Medical director not named publicly
- No published consultation fee disclosure — unclear whether physician visit is included in medication price
- All sales final per FAQ ('Federal and State law do not allow medication returns')
