A small Texas-prescriber startup that prints its promotional rate and its standard rate side by side, which almost nobody in this category does.
Visit Rylo HealthThe 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. Rylo Health still earns its place — people who want the pharmacy and the medical group named, and the real ongoing price stated, before they hand over any health information.

Both scored on the same six factors — see the methodology. The brass bar marks the stronger side on each.

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
Rylo Health
What we like
- Shows the promotional and the standard price together: semaglutide '$100/mo First 20 rate · standard $149 · quarterly $349', tirzepatide '$160/mo First 20 rate · standard $249 · quarterly $499'
- Names the dispensing pharmacy in full: VialsRX, 6220 Westpark Dr, Houston, TX 77057, with a phone number
- Names the prescribing entity, Lone Star Virtual Health PLLC, and states all 50 states in two separate FAQ answers
- 'No contracts and no cancellation fees.' Cancellation is one click from the patient portal or a message to support
- Flat price per drug regardless of dose, with free monthly shipping and prices listed before any intake
The caveats
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved drug products, which the site itself states
- The $100 and $160 headline rates are capped at the first 20 patients; the ongoing cost is $149 and $249
- No refund policy is published beyond the no-cancellation-fee statement
- Several peptides in the menu, including CJC-1295/Ipamorelin, GHK-Cu and MOTS-c, are listed as coming soon rather than available
- Support is a single named individual's email address, and no LegitScript certification is claimed or displayed
