Pros & Cons

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

Obu Health

What we like

  • LegitScript-certified with publicly displayed ID (44206977)
  • Two named 503A compounding-pharmacy partners (Manifest Pharmacy SC + RX Compounding Store FL) — transparency above category baseline
  • Lower advertised semaglutide starting price ($190) than most multi-product peer platforms
  • Multi-product offering (GLP-1s + NAD+ + sermorelin + generic ED + birth control) for single-platform users
  • 24-hour US board-certified physician response window

Watch-outs

  • Per-dose pricing tiers not transparently published on product pages — only 'starting from' prices visible
  • No explicit state-coverage list disclosed; FAQ confirms restrictions exist 'based on state' without enumeration
  • Medical director not named publicly
  • No published consultation fee disclosure — unclear whether physician visit is included in medication price
  • All sales final per FAQ ('Federal and State law do not allow medication returns')
  • Subscription auto-renewal/cancellation mechanics minimally documented
