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
OrderlyMeds
What we like
- among the lowest we track monthly rates we track
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide available
- Compounded GLP-1 access
The caveats
- The $74 rate is a two-month starter plan billed as $149 up front, and it is open only to patients new to GLP-1 medication; the standing monthly rate is $149
- Tirzepatide has no equivalent standing discount — $299/mo is the ongoing rate
- Brand-name routes are priced at retail: Wegovy $1,839 and Zepbound $1,498
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
