Visit Vitalex HealthThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out Vitalex Health on the Metabolic-Fit Score, 86 to 23 (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.
Vitalex Health is still a genuine option — one price is published here — "Plans from $199/mo · confirmed after provider review" — with no breakdown by drug or dose, and the stat block beside it reads "0 states telehealth access", an unfilled counter left live on the homepage. The claim that needs the most scrutiny is the headline one: "~15–20% avg. body-weight change", which the site attributes to "multi-center, placebo-controlled national clinical trials of Compounded Semaglutide and Tirzepatide formulations". No such trials exist. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and do not go through registrational trials; those percentages come from studies of the branded products. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.
Side-by-side on the six factors
Both providers scored on the same women's-health rubric — the higher side on each factor is marked. See the methodology.
Price, access & features
Price highlights compare average monthly budgets, using 52 weeks ÷ 12 months for weekly cycles. Quoted charges retain their billing units; unknown periods and fee-only or prepaid quotes do not compete.

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
Vitalex Health
Metabolic-Fit 23/100 · Grade C
What we like
- Names its operating entity and an address, and separates its programs by molecule rather than selling one undifferentiated plan
- Says clearly that a licensed provider determines eligibility and that the posted figure is an "educational estimate only"
- Carries the disclosure that compounded medications are not FDA-approved
The caveats
- The "~15–20% avg. body-weight change" figure is attributed to clinical trials of compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide formulations — trials that do not exist; those results come from studies of the branded drugs
- Only one price is published, "from $199/mo", and it is "confirmed after provider review", so nothing is fixed before you complete an intake
- Tirzepatide has its own program page but no price of its own anywhere on the site
