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)
Trimi Health
85/100Where the value is
- Among the lowest combined prices on the board — $99 semaglutide / $125 tirzepatide
- Nationwide all-50 availability with both molecules disclosed
- Excellent raw cost-per-month for shoppers optimizing on price
The tradeoffs
- Not LegitScript-certified, so pharmacy oversight is harder to verify
- Compounded only — no brand or oral route
