The better fit depends on what is included in your quote. A lower advertised price can require prepayment, apply to a starting dose or leave out a separate fee.

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

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

Nova

Readers who want the membership inside the quoted price rather than added to it, and who want a daily sublingual option beside the injection.

Reasons to consider it

  • Quotes one all-in figure that already contains the $50 monthly membership, the medication and refrigerated shipping, so the membership is not a surprise at checkout
  • Names a medical director and a nurse practitioner with credentials, training and residency detail
  • Prices a daily sublingual route for both molecules alongside the weekly injections

What to weigh up

  • Every figure is a "From" price that depends on the dose your provider prescribes, and no maintenance-dose price is published
  • No compounding pharmacy and no medical group is named
  • "You're only charged if prescribed" sits against a refund policy making membership and consultation fees non-refundable once the clinical review is done, even when a provider declines

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