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

Southern Vitality Weight Loss

What we like

  • Compounded GLP-1 (semaglutide and tirzepatide) starting as low as $99/mo
  • Names its compounding pharmacy partners (PerfectRx, The Pharmacy Hub, RX Compound Store) — uncommon transparency
  • Free telehealth consult and free shipping; no membership or hidden fees
  • Bi-weekly check-ins; operating since 2012
  • Flexible monthly financing available at checkout

The caveats

  • This is one physical clinic in Valdosta, Georgia, not a national telehealth service — nothing here is available to a reader outside Georgia
  • The advertised 'as low as $99/month' is a semaglutide three-month starter pack ($299 paid up front), not a tirzepatide rate and not a monthly one
  • Month-to-month rates are $199 semaglutide and $299 tirzepatide
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
