The verdict

Higher Editors' Rating: CoreAge Rx

CoreAge Rx edges out Sunlight on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 63 (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.

Sunlight is still a genuine option — the lowest flat sticker in this batch — $88/mo semaglutide, $157/mo tirzepatide — from a telehealth platform that actually names its medical groups and pharmacies instead of hiding behind 'licensed providers.' 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

Sunlight

Ranked #47 · Grade C

What we like

  • The cheapest flat monthly price in this new batch — $88 semaglutide, $157 tirzepatide, no dose creep
  • Names its medical groups (JMP Medical, OpenLoop Health) and pharmacies (thepharmacyhub.com, Foothills Pharmacy) — more transparency than most compounders offer
  • Unlimited video visits included at no extra charge

The caveats

  • Cancellation runs through email, not a self-serve dashboard button
  • Once a prescription is written and sent to pharmacy, refunds stop — read that line before you commit
  • Compounded only, not an FDA-approved brand product

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. Prices change — confirm on each provider's site. Not medical advice; see our disclosure.
