Save ~93% vs brand-nameThe verdict
CoreAge Rx takes it on Value Score, 93 to 69 — an est. $149/mo first month, with no teaser step-up baked in. FormBlends isn't out of it: Shoppers wanting a low compounded-semaglutide entry price with lots of on-site education.
CoreAge Rx is also our overall #1 pick across the whole deals board — 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
FormBlends
FormBlends is a US direct-to-consumer brand selling compounded GLP-1 weight-loss medication — compounded semaglutide from $99 and compounded tirzepatide from $349 — dispensed by a licensed 503A pharmacy and…
Why it's a deal
- Low published entry price on compounded semaglutide ($99) from a licensed 503A pharmacy
- Physician-supervised program with 24/7 care-team access and free shipping over $150
- Extensive free educational content, guides and provider comparisons on-site
The fine print
- Enrollment and final pricing complete on an external portal (rx.formscripts.com), not fully on-site
- $99 may be an intro rate; tirzepatide is comparatively high at $349/mo
- State availability and LegitScript status not published; pharmacy is its own FormScripts brand
