Visit Rixa HealthThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Rixa Health on the Mom-Tested Score, 94 to 55 (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.
Rixa Health is still a genuine option — nobody else shows their working like this: every level, every dose, every price. Semaglutide goes $195, $225, $265, $290, $310. Then I noticed two of those five levels cover five weeks, not four — which makes level three cheaper per week than level two, even though the dose is higher. And the sentence right above the table says the prices cover four weeks. 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
- Flat monthly price with no first-month teaser that jumps at refill — the number on screen is the number every month
- 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
Rixa Health
Ranked #204 · Grade C
What we like
- A full ladder with the milligrams on it — five semaglutide levels and six for tirzepatide
- The price is said to include the medicine, the shipping and any provider contact between refills
- No contracts, no long-term commitment, and HSA or FSA cards work
The caveats
- ⛔ The billing period changes partway up — levels three and four cover five weeks — so the cost per week does not climb evenly
- The line above the table says the prices cover four weeks, which is wrong for two of its own rows
- ⛔ Tirzepatide nearly doubles as you go up: $280 to $525 per four weeks
