Visit DrBrainRxThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out DrBrainRx on the Mom-Tested Score, 94 to 43 (A vs C). Someone considering compounded injections who will confirm the selected plan bill, visit format and refund conditions before paying.
DrBrainRx is still a genuine option — drBrainRx now lists compounded semaglutide at $129 and tirzepatide at $249, plus $25 monthly care. Refills are requested by the patient. Brand-name treatment adds $99 monthly care with medication paid separately; its published brand prices conflict. Weigh the six mom factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx
Ranked #1 · Grade A
What we like
- Advertised $79 semaglutide and $129 tirzepatide monthly prices stay the same at every listed dose
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide on one account, so you're not locked to one molecule
- One-time purchases and optional subscriptions are described separately in its current policies
The caveats
- Advertised monthly figures do not establish the selected plan duration or upfront payment; longer terms can have different effective monthly rates
- A $50–$100 consultation fee included in the treatment price is non-refundable after review, even if treatment is declined; this conflicts with the general FAQ’s 100% refund statement
- Canceling a subscription stops future renewals; a prescription approved and sent to the pharmacy is generally final even before shipment
DrBrainRx
Ranked #308 · Grade C
What we like
- Compounded refill orders are initiated by the patient
- Lists the care fee separately from medication
- A brand-name route is available with medication paid directly to the manufacturer
The caveats
- The $129/$249 medication figures exclude $25 monthly care
- The brand route adds $99 monthly care
- The homepage and FAQ disagree on brand-name drug prices
