Grade B · #9RxSpan MD

Winner: CoreAge Rx
CoreAge Rx takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 94/100 to 86/100 (grade A vs B). Anyone who wants transparent flat pricing and nationwide access without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch. RxSpan MD still earns its place — patients who want a wide, physician-led formulary available nationwide with the cost stated upfront — consult, medication, supplies, shipping and support bundled into one all-inclusive price they can check before signing up.

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
RxSpan MD
What we like
- Available in all 50 states, under a named board-certified founder (Dr. John Diaz)
- Transparent, all-inclusive published pricing — consult, medication, supplies, shipping and support in one price, cancel anytime, from ~$194/mo on the annual compounded semaglutide plan
- Both injectable and a real oral (capsule) route, plus compounded and an advertised brand-name lane
- 24/7 messaging and coaching with free expedited shipping
The caveats
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved — not the same as Wegovy, Ozempic or Zepbound
- Published pricing covers the compounded line; brand-name pricing isn't itemized upfront
- A prescription isn't guaranteed — a provider reviews eligibility after checkout
