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

Emerge Weight Loss

Shoppers who specifically want tirzepatide with per-dose-tier pricing shown up front, not semaglutide.

Reasons to consider it

  • Publishes a price for every dose, $224 to $289 per four weeks across six strengths, rather than a single 'starting at' figure
  • No signup fee and no separate doctor fee — the FAQ states syringes, overnight shipping and medical oversight are bundled into the quoted price
  • No minimum commitment; cancel anytime with only a $10 processing fee if an order hasn't shipped yet

What to weigh up

  • No semaglutide product at all — Emerge is tirzepatide-only, so it's not an option for patients who specifically want or are already on semaglutide
  • The 'Maintenance Plans from $49 per 4 weeks' line is misleading on its own — refills actually cost $99/vial, so $49 is a floor, not the real recurring price
  • The two highest dose tiers (12.5mg and 15mg, $279-$289) are restricted to existing patients only, so new patients can't see or lock in pricing for where they may eventually titrate

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.
