Why you can trust this: we take payment from one company on this page — Coreage Rx — when a reader signs up through our link. It does not change the prices we print or the rubric we score against, both of which are published in full on how we rate. Read our full disclosure.
Coreage Rx sells compounded tirzepatide on a flat monthly rate, and the reason it finishes first in our table is unglamorous: the number on the advert is the number on the statement.
That sounds like a low bar. In this market it is not. Most programmes quote a medication price and then bill a membership on top of it, so a $199 advert becomes a $298 charge in month two. Coreage Rx runs from $149 a month on the annual plan, or $199 month-to-month, and there is no second line item waiting behind it.
What you will actually pay
| Tirzepatide at Coreage Rx | |
|---|---|
| Advertised from | $149/mo |
| Ongoing medication | $199/mo |
| Membership or platform fee | None |
| True monthly cost | $199/mo |
| Roughly, over a year | $2,388 |
The $149 figure is the annual-plan rate. Month-to-month runs $199. Because there is no membership fee, the advertised number and the billed number are the same thing.
That flat structure is worth more than it first appears. On most compounded programmes the price climbs as the dose climbs, so the month you finally reach a therapeutic dose is the month your bill jumps. A three-month block has been offered at $589 covering any dose up to 15 mg a week, which works out near $196 a month with no dose penalty at all. Against Henry Meds at $449 a month recurring, or MEDVi and Willow at $399, the gap over a year is not small change — it is well over two thousand dollars.
How Coreage Rx works
Flat-rate telehealth program for compounded GLP-1s. The medication, the clinician visits and the ongoing check-ins are quoted as one number, with no separate membership billed alongside it.
You fill in a health questionnaire, a licensed clinician reviews it, and if you are approved the medication ships to your door with the syringes and the dosing schedule. Check-ins happen through the portal rather than by appointment, which suits people who do not want to book a video call every month and frustrates people who do. Dose changes are reviewed rather than automatic, and — this is the part that matters financially — moving from 2.5 mg up to 10 mg or 15 mg does not change what you pay.
The facts we verified
- Compounded tirzepatide advertised from $149/month on the annual plan, $199/month otherwise.
- Compounded semaglutide advertised from $99/month on the annual plan.
- A three-month tirzepatide block has been offered at $589 covering any dose up to 15 mg per week.
- Pricing is flat-rate: there is no separate monthly membership stacked on top of the medication price.
- Dose increases within the covered range do not change the price, which is unusual in this market.
- Health coaching is bundled rather than sold as an upgrade.
Every figure above was checked on 2026-09-18. Pricing in this market moves, so treat anything older than a month as a starting point rather than a quote.
Where it is strong
- The advertised price is the billed price — no membership fee arrives in month two.
- Flat pricing across the dose range, so titrating up to 10 mg or 15 mg does not raise the bill.
- Lowest true monthly cost of any provider in this comparison once fees are included.
- Coaching and clinician access are included rather than sold separately.
Where it falls short
- The headline rates require the annual commitment; month-to-month costs more.
- Compounded medication only, so there is no path to branded Zepbound or Wegovy inside the program.
- Insurance is not billed — this is a cash-pay program.
The thing most people miss
The $99 and $149 rates are annual-plan prices. If you want month-to-month, budget $149 and $199 instead, and check the refund terms before prepaying a year.
How it scored
Coreage Rx scores 4.5 out of 5 on our published rubric, placing it 1 of 12 for tirzepatide. The weights are fixed before we look at any provider and are set out in full on how we rate.
| What we weigh | Weight | Score |
|---|---|---|
| True monthly cost | 30% | 4.9 / 5 |
| Price honesty | 20% | 4.7 / 5 |
| Clinical support | 20% | 4.3 / 5 |
| Pharmacy sourcing | 15% | 4 / 5 |
| Cancelling | 15% | 4.4 / 5 |
Who it suits
This suits someone paying cash who wants one predictable number, expects to titrate up to a full dose, and does not need branded Zepbound. It does not suit someone who wants to run the prescription through insurance, or who wants the FDA-approved product specifically — Coreage Rx is a compounded programme, and that distinction is a real one worth understanding before you sign up.
Our verdict
The best value in compounded tirzepatide we found, mainly because it refuses to play the membership-fee game. Read the annual-plan terms before you prepay, because the headline $149 depends on that commitment. But on honest arithmetic, nothing else in this comparison gets close.
