AJ Peptide
What we like
- Prescription-only: every product needs a licensed provider's evaluation, and nothing is sold as research-use-only
- Names its compounding pharmacy and the medical group that writes prescriptions, with addresses
- Both GLP-1 prices, and the coupon that lowers them, are on the product cards before any quiz
- Also offers a lower-dose microdose GLP-1 program and other peptides such as sermorelin, tesamorelin and NAD+
- Phone and email support with published weekday hours and a one-business-day reply target
- Cancel any time from your account or by email, as long as it is before the next billing date
- Says it serves patients in all 50 states, with some medications varying by state
Watch-outs
- The large price on each card is the coupon price; the regular price is $195 for semaglutide and $285 for tirzepatide
- No page says how often the price is charged; the billing interval only appears after you create an account
- Refunds are generally not offered, and charges already processed are non-refundable
- COA transparency is the main pitch, but no product Certificates of Analysis are posted; the testing table is marked illustrative
- The terms still carry another company's template text, including a testosterone program the site does not sell
- The intake says you are pre-qualified after one medication question and your height and weight
- The microdose GLP-1 card does not say which drug it contains
- No Trustpilot or BBB profile was found; the homepage testimonials are signed with initials only
CoreAge Rx
What we like
- LegitScript certified — rigorous pharmacy standards
- Free 2-day shipping nationwide
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide available
- Lowest per-month pricing in the compounded segment
- 24/7 support team
- All 50 states covered
Watch-outs
- Compounded only — no brand-name Ozempic or Wegovy
- Newer brand with fewer independent reviews than legacy players
