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

Welling Health

What we like

  • Transparent flat monthly rate — $190 semaglutide / $275 tirzepatide, all doses, no insurance or hidden fees
  • LegitScript-certified 503A pharmacy with US-licensed clinicians in all 50 states and a named legal entity
  • Streak discounts cut up to 30% — semaglutide as low as $133/month for logging meals consistently
  • Free shipping, free AI macro-tracker app, and 24-hour intake review

The caveats

  • Tirzepatide at $275/month is higher than the cheapest compounded competitors
  • The streak discount requires daily in-app meal logging — miss days and you pay full rate
  • The compounding pharmacy partner is described as a LegitScript-certified 503A but not named
  • Only two medications — compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide; no oral or non-GLP options
