Visit LiveaThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out Livea on the Metabolic-Fit Score, 86 to 46 (B vs C). Someone considering both compounded injection options who wants an advertised flat price without a required subscription and will confirm the exact prescription, state access and refund terms.
Livea is still a genuine option — livea is one of the few names here with a history that predates the GLP-1 boom — it operates as Livea Medical, PLLC under Minnesota Weight Control, Inc., a weight-management business rather than a telehealth startup. Compounded semaglutide starts at $99 a month and tirzepatide at $199 "when available", a qualification most sellers leave out. It also does something unusual in its own FAQ: it puts its price next to the brand-name alternative, "compared to $1,000+ per month for brand-name Ozempic or Wegovy". Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.

Price, access & features

Metabolic-Fit / 100
CoreAge Rx
Metabolic-Fit 86/100 · Grade B
What we like
- Officially linked public offer advertises $79/month semaglutide and $129/month tirzepatide across doses
- Advertises care and free overnight cold shipping within those prices, with no membership fee
- Public offer describes one-time purchases, no required subscription and the same refill price
The caveats
- Main navigation still shows semaglutide from $99, conflicting with the $79 officially linked offer
- A patient-specific prescription quantity and checkout total were not verified; confirm before paying
- State eligibility depends on therapy; nationwide access should not be assumed
Metabolic-Fit / 100
Livea
Metabolic-Fit 46/100 · Grade C
What we like
- Operates as a named medical entity, Livea Medical, PLLC, under an established weight-control company rather than a bare LLC
- $99 a month for compounded semaglutide is well below the typical price we track
- Says "when available" about tirzepatide instead of implying continuous supply
The caveats
- Both prices are "starting at", so dose may move them
- Tirzepatide availability is explicitly conditional, so the $199 may not be obtainable when you need it
- No list of states served is published
