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
Nirwana Health
Nirwana Health (nirwanahealth.com) is a telehealth service offering compounded GLP-1 weight loss plus hair, sexual-wellness, and longevity care through licensed providers.
Why it's a deal
- Offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as both weekly injections and oral tablets
- Transparent, published pricing with month-to-month, quarterly, and 6-month plans and no membership fee
- Multi-month plans cut the per-month cost sharply (semaglutide as low as $99/mo, tirzepatide as low as $133/mo)
- Advertises a $50-off code (LOOSE50) and covers weight loss plus hair, sexual-wellness, and longevity care
- Also lists a retatrutide option and custom dosing plans for higher needs
The fine print
- Prescribing medical group and compounding pharmacy are not named on the site
- States of operation are not published; confirm eligibility during intake
- Says it is 'LegitScript certified' but no verifiable seal is shown, so the claim is unconfirmed
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
