Head-to-head for moms
CoreAge Rx vs Pepti
CoreAge Rx and Pepti both offer GLP-1 telehealth to mothers, but they make different trade-offs on family-budget value, clinical oversight, price and access. Here they are side-by-side on the Editors' Rating — our six-factor rubric for mothers.
CoreAge Rx

Ranked #19 · Grade C
Best for: Mothers for whom monthly cost is the deciding factor, who live in one of the 36 states Pepti ships to, and who don't need insurance billing or a brand-name option.
Visit PeptiThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Pepti on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 75 (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.
Pepti is still a genuine option — pepti publishes the lowest semaglutide price in this entire roster — $99 a month, flat at every titration dose, with the medication, physician review, shipping, refill management and unlimited messaging with your prescribing doctor all inside it. Tirzepatide is $199 on the same all-in, flat-at-every-dose basis. That number is low enough to deserve scepticism, so it is worth saying exactly where it comes from: Pepti states it on a dedicated cost page, repeats it in its FAQ ('we keep pricing flat and transparent at $99/mo all-in'), and prices the comparison against Hims, Henry Meds and Mochi on the same page. It names two prescribing physicians and says its medication is compounded by FDA-registered 503A or 503B pharmacies, though it never names which. The real limits are reach and format: it ships to 36 states rather than 50, it is cash-pay only and bills no insurance, and its needle-free oral GLP-1/GIP drops cost $349 — well above its own injection. 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
Pepti
Ranked #19 · Grade C
What we like
- $99/mo semaglutide is the lowest price in this roster, stated flatly on a dedicated cost page and repeated in the FAQ
- Flat at every titration dose for both molecules — the cost doesn't climb as you go up
- All-in: medication, physician review, shipping, refill management and unlimited messaging with the prescribing physician
The caveats
- Ships to 36 states, not 50 — the narrowest coverage of the providers added here
- Cash-pay only; Pepti states plainly that it does not bill insurance
- The compounding pharmacies are described as FDA-registered 503A or 503B but never named
