Visit MedLeanRxThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out MedLeanRx on the Mom-Tested Score, 94 to 54 (A vs C). Moms who want a flat, no-teaser price, both molecules available, and a signup you can genuinely finish while the baby sleeps — without a phone-tag scheduling loop.
MedLeanRx is still a genuine option — texas only, and careful about the one thing most sites fudge: the Wegovy tier says "$99/mo + medication cost" right on the card, so you know the fee is the service and the drug is extra. Compounded semaglutide is $149 a month, either as a weekly shot or a needle-free daily tablet. Brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound are there too, though what they cost isn't published. Weigh the six mom factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx
Ranked #1 · Grade A
What we like
- Async intake — no live video visit to schedule around nap time; you reach a real price without booking a call first
- Advertised $79 semaglutide and $129 tirzepatide monthly prices stay the same at every listed dose
- Both semaglutide and tirzepatide on one account, so you're not locked to one molecule
The caveats
- Not the rock-bottom sticker — a couple of budget brands undercut it if price is your only lever
- Compounded only — no FDA-approved brand (Wegovy/Zepbound) if you specifically want the name brand
- It's a general metabolic program, not a hormone or PCOS specialty clinic
MedLeanRx
Ranked #230 · Grade C
What we like
- Says plainly that the Wegovy tier is "$99/mo + medication cost" rather than implying the fee covers the drug
- Offers FDA-approved Wegovy and Zepbound alongside the compounded options
- A needle-free daily oral semaglutide at the same $149 as the weekly injection
The caveats
- Texas only
- The brand-name medication costs are not published, so the total for Wegovy or Zepbound is unknown up front
- Tirzepatide appears only as brand-name Zepbound; no compounded tirzepatide price is given
