CoreAge Rx
94/100Where the value is
- Flat all-in monthly price — no intro rate that silently triples after month one, so the modeled annual cost is the real cost
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on one account at published prices
- Available in all 50 states — no coverage gamble
The tradeoffs
- Not the rock-bottom sticker price — cheaper teaser tiers exist (Direct GLP lists $65, Ondra $93 on semaglutide)
- No FDA-approved brand-name option (compounded only)
EOS Health
51/100Where the value is
- Unusually transparent: publicly names its clinical partner (Arora Health & Aesthetics, LLC) and pharmacy partner (F&F Pharmacies dba Jungle Jim's)
- Competitive compounded pricing from $199/mo semaglutide and $289/mo tirzepatide, plus $100 off the first prescription with code WELCOME100
- Multiple compounded formulas (semaglutide, semaglutide+glycine, semaglutide+B12, tirzepatide) and optional 130+ biomarker lab add-ons
The tradeoffs
- Available in only 40 states — not offered in CA, NV, NJ, SC, TX, MA, MS, NH, WV, or DE (pharmacy partner is unlicensed there)
- Headline prices are 'best rate' figures; standard monthly plans may cost more than the quarterly-plan rate shown
