CoreAge Rx
94/100Where the value is
- 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
The tradeoffs
- Not the lowest price around: 35 of the 434 priced semaglutide programs we track list a cheaper figure, though most attach a term or a step-up that CoreAge does not
- 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
Loozy
52/100Where the value is
- Names both its medical group, Elite Care Health, and its dispensing pharmacy, Rx Ave Health, with contact details for each
- The membership covers the provider review, dose titration, unlimited messaging and a week-12 check-in, with medication shipped from a U.S. pharmacy
- If you cancel before a provider has reviewed your intake, you get a full refund
The tradeoffs
- The only public price is semaglutide "starting" at $199 a month, billed as a three-month plan; the tirzepatide price appears only inside the intake
- Membership fees become non-refundable once your intake is submitted for review, and canceling keeps access only through the end of the paid three months
