The verdict

Higher Editors' Rating: CoreAge Rx

CoreAge Rx edges out Nu Image Medical on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 59 (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.

Nu Image Medical is still a genuine option — one of the network's longer-established telehealth operators (since 2008) — as low as $99/mo semaglutide, $269/mo tirzepatide — though state coverage isn't itemized beyond a 'trusted nationwide' claim. Weigh the six factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx

Ranked #1 · 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

Nu Image Medical

Ranked #56 · Grade C

What we like

  • Operating since 2008 — a longer track record than most providers in this round
  • Claims over 1,000,000 patient encounters and a 4.9/5 rating from 30,000+ verified patients
  • Broad treatment menu beyond GLP-1s on the same platform (ED, testosterone, hair)

The caveats

  • Both prices are framed as 'As low as' — the exact cost at a working dose isn't guaranteed
  • No itemized state-coverage list published, only 'trusted nationwide' marketing language
  • No named compounding pharmacy or medical director found on the pages checked

We may earn a referral fee if you sign up through a link on this page, at no extra cost to you — and it has no bearing on which provider scores higher. Pricing, states and verification reflect each provider's public disclosures at last review; the Editors' Rating is our editorial judgment per the methodology.
