CoreAge Rx
What we like

- 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

Idgie Health
What we like
- Month-to-month prices are public before you start: semaglutide $149/mo, tirzepatide $229/mo
- One price at every dose, stated outright: 'Your price never moves' as your dose rises, with a $0 dose surcharge
- Names its prescribing group (Arora Health & Aesthetics, Seattle) and its dispensing pharmacy (VialsRx, Houston)
- The plan price covers the provider evaluation, medication, injection supplies, unlimited provider messaging and shipping
- No membership fee, no consultation fee and no insurance needed
- Prepaid three- and six-month plans lower the rate, and each shows the full amount charged up front
- Microdose and needle-free dissolving-tablet options sit alongside standard weekly injections
- LegitScript seal is served from LegitScript's own image server, not self-hosted
Watch-outs
- The headline 'from $114' is the six-month prepay rate ($687 up front); the $149 monthly price is behind a collapsed menu
- You must create an account with a password before you see a single medical question
- All sales are final: prescription products cannot be returned, and only a pharmacy filling error is carved out
- The Terms of Service are written for a testosterone program and never mention weight-loss treatment
- Shipping claims conflict: 'free 2-day shipping' on product pages, but the shipping policy says 4 to 12 business days
- Two different support phone numbers are published, one in the policies and another on the intake page
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved
