Visit YourEraThe verdict
Ondra Health takes it, leading the Cost-Efficiency Index 90 to 62. A rare combination — near-rock-bottom pricing on both molecules, all-50 access, brand-name availability, and a LegitScript-verified pharmacy behind it. YourEra still earns a C — Shoppers chasing the lowest sticker price who will verify what's actually billed after the first month.
Worth knowing either way: our overall #1 pick is CoreAge Rx (Cost-Efficiency Index 94/100 — the top of the board). See how it stacks up: CoreAge Rx vs Ondra Health.

Ondra Health
90/100Where the value is
- Among the lowest disclosed prices on the board — $93 semaglutide and $166 tirzepatide
- Available in all 50 states with both molecules published for clean cost modeling
- LegitScript-certified, and offers FDA-approved brand-name access alongside compounded
The tradeoffs
- A newer, lower-profile operator without CoreAge's long flat-price track record
- No oral/sublingual route
YourEra
62/100Where the value is
- A 6-month prepay drops semaglutide to $99/month, among the lowest compounded-GLP-1 headline prices we track
- No membership-fee structure; the site markets "no hidden fees" and "Same price at every dose"
- Prescriptions are "issued only if deemed medically appropriate" after evaluation by licensed US clinicians, stated plainly
The tradeoffs
- The advertised $99/month requires a 6-month prepay — paying month to month costs $149 for the first month and $179/month after, nearly double the headline
- Tirzepatide's advertised $179 is a first-month intro, not a prepay rung: the page's own words are "Month-to-month intro. Then $259/mo." — so the two molecules' headline discounts work in two different ways on one page
