CoreAge Rx

Anyone who wants one flat monthly price they can plan a full year around, on either molecule, without signing a contract.

Reasons to consider it

  • One price at every dose: semaglutide is $99 from 0.25 mg up to 2.5 mg, and tirzepatide is $149 from 2.5 mg up to 15 mg
  • No membership fee, no insurance needed and no long-term contract, and the price you lock in at checkout stays put as your dose rises
  • If the doctor decides a prescription isn't right for you, CoreAge refunds the medication portion of your payment

What to weigh up

  • Some programs we track publish lower semaglutide prices. Compare billing terms, dose pricing and required fees before choosing.
  • You pay before the doctor reviews your case, and if you aren't approved the FAQ promises a 100% refund while the refund policy keeps a $50 to $100 consultation fee
  • All sales are final once medication ships, because state and federal law don't allow medication returns

DrBrainRx

Shoppers who want one compounded price at every dose, pay per refill, and don't mind a $25 monthly care fee on top of the medication.

Reasons to consider it

  • Named, credentialed medical director (Dr. Sara Siavoshi, board-certified neurologist and obesity-medicine specialist), not an anonymous provider pool
  • One medication price at every dose ($129 semaglutide, $249 tirzepatide up to 15 mg), with no upcharge as you titrate up
  • Refills are explicitly patient-initiated and never auto-charged — a real anti-dark-pattern commitment

What to weigh up

  • The $129/$249 medication prices don't include the $25 monthly care fee every compounded patient pays, so the real monthly cost is $154/$274
  • No compounding pharmacy named beyond a generic 'USP-certified pharmacies in the U.S.' reference
  • It doesn't list the states it serves, so check yours before you start
