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

TeleWellnessMD

What we like

  • Offers both semaglutide and tirzepatide within an established broader telehealth and wellness catalog
  • Licensed-provider assessment model with a 20 percent first-order discount for new patients
  • Phone support line published (877-659-6050)

The caveats

  • No per-month GLP-1 pricing published; price is assessment-gated
  • Compounding pharmacy is not named publicly
  • State availability is restricted and not enumerated
