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
Raeliva
Editors' Rating 61/100 · Grade C
What we like
- Names all six pharmacies that fill its prescriptions, and the filling pharmacy is printed on each shipment
- One price at every dose, stated plainly — only switching plans changes it
- Both molecules as weekly injections or oral dissolving tablets
The caveats
- No mention anywhere of pregnancy, breastfeeding, postpartum care, or PCOS
- The lowest rates ($150 and $242 a month) require paying six months upfront in one charge
- Oral tablets cost more than injections — $260 and $359 a month month to month
