The verdict
CoreAge Rx takes it on Value Score, 81 to 69 — an est. From $79/mo (compounded semaglutide; confirm total at checkout) first month, though we flag its pricing to watch. Clume Health isn't out of it: Shoppers who want the oral and injectable routes priced identically and will read the plan cards rather than the homepage before budgeting.

Factor by factor
The six factors behind each Value Score. The orange bar marks the stronger side. See the methodology.
CoreAge Rx
CoreAge Rx advertises compounded semaglutide from $79 and tirzepatide from $129 per month, with dose-flat pricing stated in its FAQ. Confirm the total and refund terms before paying.
What's good
- CoreAge Rx publishes separate product prices for both molecules: semaglutide from $79 per month and tirzepatide from $129. That gives you two actual medication offers to compare rather than one generic GLP-1 starting figure.
- CoreAge Rx's FAQ says the price locked in at checkout stays the same in future months regardless of dose increases. I would save that confirmation with the order, because a low starting price matters much more when the prescribed maintenance dose costs the same.
- The product pages state that there are no long-term contracts or membership fees and advertise fast, free delivery. Compare those inclusions with the checkout total; the refund policy separately allows applicable consultation fees and shipping charges if disclosed there.
- CoreAge Rx uses the MD Integrations professional entities for medical care and prescribing. Its FAQ names physicians assigned in California, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Vermont, giving patients in those states a concrete medical contact to verify.
- CoreAge Rx offers account-based reordering and cancellation, and its help center says optional subscriptions can be managed in the member portal. Check whether your selected purchase is a one-time order or an automatically renewed subscription so the next charge is predictable.
- CoreAge Rx also advertises microdosing products at $79 for semaglutide and $129 for tirzepatide. These are separate lower-dose offers, not a reason to select your own dose or evidence that they work like the doses studied for approved products.
The fine print
- CoreAge Rx's FAQ promises an automatic 100% refund if the clinician declines your prescription, but its refund policy says applicable consultation fees of $50–$100 are nonrefundable. Ask which policy applies to the exact order and how much would be returned before you pay.
- CoreAge Rx's refund policy makes a medication order final once the prescription is approved and sent to the pharmacy, which can happen before shipping. Waiting until the parcel is dispatched may be too late to cancel an order or recover the medication charge. The policy also imposes a 30-day nonrefundable cutoff even when incomplete documentation has prevented fulfillment.
- CoreAge Rx does not publish a complete GLP-1 state list. Its FAQ says therapy-specific state restrictions are confirmed during intake, so a U.S. address alone does not establish that your selected medication is available where you live.
- CoreAge Rx does not name the dispensing pharmacy in its FAQ; it asks patients to contact support. Obtain the pharmacy's legal name, license and contact information before choosing a compounded prescription. The platform's branding does not identify who prepares your medication.
- CoreAge Rx's FAQ says there are no automatic rebills, while its refund policy and help center describe optional automatic renewals. I would confirm the selected purchase option and next charge date rather than treat the general FAQ answer as a guarantee for every order.
- CoreAge Rx offers compounded medication, which is not FDA-approved. Its FAQ says tirzepatide is typically formulated with B12 and that requests without it go to the prescriber. Ask why the exact formulation is appropriate for you; an added vitamin does not itself establish a lawful patient-specific difference.
Clume Health
One price of $259 a month covers either molecule in either form, oral or injectable — advertised on the homepage as $199 a month, a figure that is not sold anywhere and whose asterisk resolves to no footnote.
What's good
- One figure covers a lot: $259 a month buys either molecule in either form, so switching from semaglutide to tirzepatide or from an injection to an oral dose does not move the bill
- The full price grid sits on the plan page before any intake, with the month-to-month rate printed beside each commitment rate rather than replacing it
- Four dispensing pharmacies are named, each with a website, a street address and a phone number — a level of supply-chain disclosure most desks at this price do not attempt
- Coverage is stated as all fifty states plus Washington, D.C., with the usual honest hedge that some services may be narrower, and the telehealth operator behind the care is named in the terms and the privacy policy
- Cancellation is by email or through the patient portal with seventy-two hours' notice, and the service continues through the period already paid for
The fine print
- The two prices on the homepage are not prices anyone pays. "$199/month" is advertised where the real floors are $259 and $219, and "$159/month" where the real figure is $216 — and that one is only available on a twelve-week plan
- Both homepage figures carry an asterisk that leads nowhere: the page holds three asterisks in total, the two price prefixes and one decoration, and no footnote exists on the page to explain either
- The cheaper per-month numbers are commitments printed as though they were rates: $186 a month requires a fifty-two-week plan, $200 a twelve-week one, and both sit on the same card as the month-to-month figure
- The longevity program publishes no month-to-month price at all — the only figure attached to it is a twelve-week rate
- Four pharmacies are named but the site never says which one fills which program, never states a 503A or 503B designation, and outside a definition in the terms never says the medication is compounded
- The refund policy promises a patient support line available around the clock while no phone number appears anywhere on the site; support is email only
- The company behind the brand publishes no address, and its legal entity appears only as a trading name in the terms
- The intake is now gated behind a security check before the first question, so the price cannot be confirmed at the point of purchase from outside
