Visit Telos RxThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Telos Rx on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 73 (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.
Telos Rx is still a genuine option — four flat, posted price points and a written promise that your cost won't climb with your dose — a real step up in clarity from what we found last check — undercut by a state list it still won't publish. 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
Telos Rx
Ranked #27 · Grade C
What we like
- Four price points posted up front, before any intake — genuinely transparent on the headline number
- Stated flat pricing — 'your monthly cost stays the same even as your dose goes up' — in writing on the pricing page and its own FAQ
- An oral/sublingual tirzepatide option alongside the injection, plus a microdosed 'gentlest start' tier
The caveats
- States served aren't published anywhere on the site
- No named compounding pharmacy or medical director; self-stated Trustpilot rating is unverified
- A 'For Women' tab with no detail behind it — no real maternal framing
