Head-to-head, mom to mom
CoreAge Rx vs SkinnyRx
CoreAge Rx and SkinnyRx both offer GLP-1 telehealth, but they make different trade-offs on signup ease, honest pricing, which meds you can get, state coverage and support. Here they are side-by-side on the Mom-Tested Score — our real-mom rubric.

Ranked #58 for moms · Grade C
- signed up myself
- tracked the real cost
- read the fine print
Best for: Moms willing to verify SkinnyRx's compounding and ingredient claims for themselves rather than take its labels or marketing at face value — the FDA found the site misrepresents who actually compounds these products and implies an FDA-approved status they don't have. Read the FDA's letter before you weigh in the tablet option or the flat pricing.
Visit SkinnyRxThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out SkinnyRx on the Mom-Tested Score, 94 to 64 (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.
SkinnyRx is still a genuine option — a flat $199/mo semaglutide, $299/mo tirzepatide, with an option most of this batch skips: a sublingual tablet instead of a weekly shot — but the FDA issued its parent entity, Lean Rx, Inc., a warning letter on 02/20/2026 (ref. 717989) for mislabeling itself as the compounder on its own product images and for marketing language implying its compounded products share FDA-approved status with Mounjaro and Zepbound, which they don't. Confirmed directly on FDA.gov; SkinnyRx's own site never mentions it. 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
SkinnyRx
Ranked #58 · Grade C
What we like
- Offers sublingual tablets as a genuine alternative to injections for both molecules
- Flat pricing regardless of dose
- Internal site code carries a "no_membership" flag consistent with no separate fee
The caveats
- No state list published anywhere on the public site
- Pricing only surfaces in compiled app data, not a plain page read
- Nothing maternal-specific — general telehealth framing
