Aspen vs The Edit
The verdict
The Edit takes it — 70.4/100 to 58.4/100.
The Edit grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. The Edit holds one price at every dose, charges nothing to start, refunds in full if you are not approved, and then says none of its published policies actually govern.

Site position #422 · C
Strengths
- HIPAA compliant — a strong trust signal for a compounded-GLP-1 telehealth
- Names its dispensing pharmacy: Red Rock Compounding Pharmacy, LegitScript-certified and NABP-accredited, licensed in 49 states plus DC
- Flat pricing at every dose ("same price at every dose, no surprises") plus free expedited shipping, so your cost won't rise as you titrate up
- Competitive prepay rates — compounded semaglutide as low as $179/mo (12-mo) and tirzepatide $299/mo — with zero interest and no credit check
- Money-back guarantee for qualifying patients who complete the full 28-week program without losing weight; available in all 50 states + DC
Where it loses points
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only — no brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound or Ozempic — and compounded GLP-1s aren't FDA-reviewed or approved
- Even the "monthly" plan requires a 3-month commitment with three months of medication shipped and billed upfront — limited month-to-month flexibility
- Standing month-to-month pricing is steep ($279 semaglutide, $399 tirzepatide); the lowest rates require 6- or 12-month prepay
- The provider chooses semaglutide vs tirzepatide for you, so you can't freely pick your own molecule
- Registered as Aspen Health Systems LLC at a Sheridan, WY address; async model with no routine video visit
Site position #118 · C
Strengths
- The price is flat at every dose with no titration ladder, so the figure a reader sees is the figure at maintenance
- Nothing is charged and no card is taken to begin, and a full refund applies if a clinician does not approve treatment
- Names its medical director with an NPI number and the medical practice behind him, and names a dispensing pharmacy
- Prescription medication, injection supplies, the clinician visit and ongoing care are itemized as included, with no membership fee
- A separate hormone menu is priced beside the GLP-1 lines
Where it loses points
- $200 and $300 are first-order promotional prices printed larger than the struck standing rates of $259 and $349, and the promotion carries no end date and no code
- The published cancellation and refund policies say the Membership Agreement controls where they differ, and that nothing on the public site is binding — so the terms a reader can read are not the terms that apply
- Two-day shipping is transit time only; the site's own shipping policy states an average of 4 to 12 business days from prescription
- “Available in all 50 U.S. states” is hedged in the same paragraph and no state list is published anywhere
- The three- and six-month figures are one charge, not a monthly rate, and the per-month numbers beside them are arithmetic rather than billing
- The named pharmacy is described as one member of a plural pharmacy network whose other members are not named
- No compounding class is stated, and whether a separate visit fee is ever charged is not answered
Featured provider
CoreAge Rx
CoreAge Rx scores 89.5/100 (B+). CoreAge Rx advertises flat dose pricing for compounded injections, with no membership fee; its consultation-fee and refund deadlines deserve a close read before paying.
