Two GLP-1 providers, ruled side by side on The Verdict Score — our published six-factor rubric. Same yardstick, and no score is adjusted for payment.

Verdict64/ 100
Grade C · #250Tyde Wellness
Fifty-state compounded GLP-1 service with unusually good pharmacy disclosure, but it publishes only entry prices across a microdose and full-strength range and never the full-strength figure.

Winner: CoreAge Rx
CoreAge Rx takes it with a higher Verdict Score — 94/100 to 64/100 (grade A vs C). Anyone who wants transparent flat pricing and nationwide access without a teaser-rate bait-and-switch. Tyde Wellness still earns its place — patients who care most about knowing which pharmacy actually compounds their medication.

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
Tyde Wellness
What we like
- Five compounding pharmacy partners named with addresses: Belmar (Golden, CO), Casa (Stafford, TX), Olympia (Orlando, FL), Red Rock (Springville, UT) and Beaker (McKinney, TX)
- All 50 states listed individually on the states-we-serve page
- Consultation is free, and the subscription is cancellable at will: 'Plans are offered as a subscription service which you can cancel at any time'
- Publishes an unambiguous disclaimer that medications are compounded by independent pharmacies, 'not by Tyde Wellness', and are not FDA-approved finished products
- Phone and email support both published: (617) 676-2701 and team@tydewellness.com
The caveats
- Both GLP-1 prices are 'Starting at' figures spanning a microdose and full-strength range; the full-strength cost is not published anywhere, so the real monthly price is unknown until after the consult
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished drug products and have not been reviewed by FDA for safety or efficacy
- A 'Claim $50 Off Your First Month' offer discounts month one only, which flatters any first-month comparison
- No brand-name GLP-1 and no oral GLP-1; the only oral option is low-dose naltrexone as an adjunct
- Corporate street address and medical director are not disclosed
