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.

Strive Pharmacy

Strive Pharmacy is a compounding pharmacy that fills prescriptions from licensed providers. It doesn't prescribe GLP-1 medication, so you need a prescriber first.

Provider background

  • Is a real, named 503A/503B compounding pharmacy rather than an anonymous telehealth brand
  • Transparent about being provider-facing first: the site does not pretend to be a consumer GLP-1 shopping destination

What to weigh up

  • Not a direct-to-consumer option at all: a new patient can't get a semaglutide or tirzepatide prescription from Strive itself; you need a prescriber at a clinic that already works with Strive
  • No consumer pricing for any GLP-1 product exists anywhere on the site
  • Listing this as a comparable 'provider' alongside true telehealth companies risks misleading a reader who is looking to start a new prescription, since Strive cannot serve that need directly
