Save ~80% vs brand-nameThe verdict
CoreAge Rx takes it on Value Score, 93 to 65 — an est. $99/mo first month, with no teaser step-up baked in. Avono Health isn't out of it: Someone who wants an oral capsule option and a real month-to-month price to compare the bundle against.
CoreAge Rx is also our overall #1 pick across the whole deals ranking — a flat, all-in price on both molecules in all 50 states. That's why it wins here on the score, not just this matchup.

Factor by factor
The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
CoreAge Rx
The honest lowest price: both molecules at one flat, all-in monthly rate that never steps up after month one.
Why it's a deal
- 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 — no lock-in
The fine print
- Not the rock-bottom sticker — a couple of teaser tiers advertise lower month-one rates
- No FDA-approved brand-name option (compounded only)
- Does not yet publicly name its 503A/B pharmacy partner
Avono Health
Avono Health sells clinician-guided compounded semaglutide as injections at $269 a month or $699 for a three-month bundle, with oral capsules at $299 a month or $777 for three.
Why it's a deal
- Prints the month-to-month rate, the bundle price and the saving between them on the same card, so the discount can be checked rather than taken on trust
- A month-to-month option genuinely exists at $269 — the bundle is a choice, not the only way in
- Oral capsules are offered as a full alternative to injections, priced separately at $299 a month
- Clinician review is described as part of the program rather than a one-off gate
The fine print
- $269 a month for compounded semaglutide sits well above the roughly $179 median across the programs tracked here
- The oral route costs $30 a month more than the injection
- The compounding pharmacy is not publicly named and no 503A or 503B designation is given
- State availability is not published, and this is a newer brand with little independent review history
