Site position #13 · B
Strengths
- Lowest combined price ($100 sema / $133 tirz)
- LegitScript-verified
- Both molecules
What to consider
- Only 32 states — not nationwide
- Injection-only
- Labs/monitoring not published
Site position #245 · C
Strengths
- Direct Primary Care model integrates GLP-1 with continuous primary care — unlike most direct-to-consumer platforms
- GLP-1 at wholesale cost with no markup — semaglutide from $65/mo, tirzepatide from $110/mo (members only)
- Unlimited primary care visits, direct text access, and same-day care bundled in the $89/mo membership
- Routine labs and thousands of medications included in membership — no surprise bills
- Per-dose pricing shown publicly for all 8 dose tiers of both semaglutide and tirzepatide
What to consider
- The medication price is on top of an $89/mo direct-primary-care membership, which the FAQ states does not include the drug — all-in is about $174/mo for semaglutide and $222/mo for tirzepatide
- Prices are published as dose BANDS rather than per dose, and the cheapest tirzepatide band starts at 1.25 mg, below the 2.5 mg labeled starting dose
- The pricing is rendered entirely in JavaScript, so nothing on the page is readable without running the site's bundle
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
Featured provider
CoreAge Rx
CoreAge Rx scores 89.5/100 (B+). Advertises pricing across doses with no membership fee, but starting-price displays and FAQ payment/refund promises need to be reconciled with the selected plan and refund policy.
