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
Fierce Health
Fierce Health is a direct-to-consumer telehealth brand selling compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide in both standard and microdose programs, alongside a longevity catalog.
Why it's a deal
- 30-state service list spelled out in the Terms — buyers can verify eligibility before intake
- LegitScript Certified
- Publishes the FDA compounded-medication disclaimer on every product page
- Four GLP-1 programs (standard and microdose semaglutide and tirzepatide) — a broader ladder than peers
- Microdose tier at $197/mo is one of the lower entry points we've seen
The fine print
- No named 503A compounding pharmacy partner — only generic 'partner pharmacies' language
- Operating LLC name not disclosed anywhere on the site
- Tirzepatide weight-loss program ($497/mo) showing 'sold out or unavailable' across all plans at review time
- Clinical provider network not named
- FDA has issued this company a warning letter; the letter is public in FDA's warning-letter database
