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
Primary Clinic (Direct GLP)
The cheapest headline number here — $65 semaglutide — but it's a small-clinic, 10-state offer we flag as a teaser to verify, not a sure thing.
Why it's a deal
- Lowest disclosed sticker anywhere — $65 semaglutide, $110 tirzepatide
- Both molecules priced far below the brand-name reference
The fine print
- Priced so low we flag it 'watch' — confirm the $65 isn't an intro rate that steps up
- Only 10 states, small clinic, and not LegitScript-certified
