The verdict

Higher Editors' Rating: CoreAge Rx

CoreAge Rx edges out Measured on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 50 (A vs C). Mothers who want to know the real monthly cost before the free trial talks them into it — one flat price on semaglutide or tirzepatide, everywhere in the country, with no lock-in.

Measured is still a genuine option — compounded semaglutide at a standard $199 a month and tirzepatide at $299, medication included, with a genuine microdose line underneath at $79. The promotional rates it leads with are $119 and $219. Two things worth knowing before you compare it with anything else here. It serves 26 states rather than all 50, and it does not publish which. And the '$49/mo' on most of its medication cards is a membership fee with the medication paid separately — that lane covers Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound and Mounjaro, and the drug cost is never shown. It carries a February 2026 FDA warning letter, cited partly for putting its own name on the pictured vial, which it has since fixed. What it does better than most: a registered dietitian is included for every patient. Weigh the six factors below against your own priorities.

What the price covers

CoreAge Rx's price includes the clinician consult, the medication and shipping. Measured's price includes the clinician consult and the medication. So the sticker prices cover different things: shipping at CoreAge Rx but not, or not stated, at Measured. Add the missing pieces before you compare totals.

Where they serve and how signup works

Where they serve: CoreAge Rx, all 50 states; Measured, 26 states — the list is not published. Measured doesn't publish a state list, so confirm your state at signup; CoreAge Rx says it serves all of them.

CoreAge Rx and Measured both show the price before the health questions. Neither CoreAge Rx nor Measured requires a live video visit; both start with an online questionnaire. Measured has received an FDA warning letter of its own and CoreAge Rx has none on file; our Measured review explains what it covered.

CoreAge Rx

Editors' Rating 94/100 · Grade A

What we like

  • Flat all-in price that doesn't step up after month one — the number you sign for is the number at the full dose
  • Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on a single account, so a molecule switch never resets the budget
  • Licensed in all 50 states — care survives a move, a deployment, or a summer at the grandparents'

The caveats

  • Not the rock-bottom sticker price — a bare teaser tier elsewhere can look cheaper for exactly one month
  • Compounded only; no FDA-approved brand Wegovy or Zepbound if that is what you and your clinician want
  • A general metabolic program, not a dedicated women's or maternal-health clinic

Measured

Editors' Rating 50/100 · Grade C

What we like

  • A registered dietitian is included for every patient, not sold as an add-on
  • The compounded lane is all-inclusive — medication included in the monthly price, no insurance required
  • A real microdose line at $79 a month with medication included

The caveats

  • It carries an FDA warning letter: issued 20 February 2026 to Better Health Labs, Inc. dba Measured, MARCS-CMS 721454, for false and misleading claims and misbranding in telehealth, with no close-out recorded
  • One of the cited problems was the packaging rather than the copy — FDA said the pictured label read 'Measured', implying it compounds the drugs when it does not
  • Only 26 states, and the list of which 26 is not published anywhere we could find
