Winner: CoreAge Rx
CoreAge Rx takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 94/100 to 69/100 (grade A vs C). Anyone who wants transparent flat pricing and nationwide access without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch. Solaya MD still earns its place — a reader who wants to know who fills and who prescribes before they care what it costs.

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
Solaya MD
What we like
- The partner pharmacy is named with a street address, a phone number and a website, revealed by a control on the FAQ
- A medical director is named with an NPI, along with the professional entity behind the prescriptions
- Oral and injectable routes are both offered, with a microdose tier alongside
- Cancellation is available at any time and stops the next renewal, with the deadline stated plainly
- A support address is published and the subscription terms are written out rather than left to the account
The caveats
- No drug-scoped price is published anywhere: the only visible figure is an unscoped starting-at line with no molecule and no billing cycle, and everything else sits behind a create-account gate
- The About page and the FAQ name two different medical directors, and the telehealth consent names the medical group under a third legal form
- Subscription payments are non-refundable with no partial, prorated or unused-time refund of any kind
- Additional service fees appear only in the terms of a program the site does not market, so whether they apply to a GLP-1 patient is unresolved
- No phone number, no support hours, no compounding class for the named pharmacy, and no published state list behind the 50-state claim
