Pros & Cons

Novera MD

What we like

  • Low advertised starting prices: compounded semaglutide from $94.31/mo and tirzepatide from $164.31/mo
  • The intake's first screen says month-to-month with cancel anytime, and HSA/FSA cards are accepted
  • Names its clinical network: independent licensed providers in the WizDoc provider network make every prescribing decision
  • The intake screens for the main GLP-1 safety exclusions, including pregnancy, thyroid cancer history and recent bariatric surgery
  • Hormone therapy, MIC + B12, NAD+, sermorelin and glutathione are sold under the same brand

Watch-outs

  • The "starting at" prices don't say which plan length they belong to; plan options and totals come only after the intake
  • The intake asks for your email and full name on its second screen, before any health question
  • No company or legal entity is named anywhere on the site, terms or privacy policy
  • The dispensing pharmacy is not named; the site says only that a state-licensed pharmacy in its network ships the medication
  • No refund policy is published in the terms; the intake only promises "Guaranteed or it's free" without the conditions
  • Shows a LegitScript seal, but no certification record could be confirmed in LegitScript's public directory
  • The domain dates from March 2026, yet the site claims 20K+ patients; testimonials praise products it doesn't sell
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved, and both formulas here include B12

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
