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

  • Does not yet publicly name its 503A/B pharmacy partner

WeightCare

What we like

  • PCAB-accredited pharmacy partners — strongest pharmacy quality signal

  • Health coaching, dietitians, fitness trainers included

The caveats
