CoreAge Rx
Higher scoreRanked #1 for women · Grade A−

Ranked #111 for women · Grade C
Metabolic-Fit / 100
Best for: Someone who wants a flat month-to-month rate and will read the prepaid tiers as prepayment rather than a monthly price.
Visit Zappy HealthThe verdict for women
CoreAge Rx edges out Zappy Health on the Metabolic-Fit Score, 92 to 49 (A− vs C). Mothers who want a fixed monthly price, a real clinician rather than an intake quiz, and uninterrupted nationwide access to both semaglutide and tirzepatide while they work out the timing around pregnancy or weaning.
Zappy Health is still a genuine option — compounded semaglutide at $249 a month and tirzepatide at $349, both flat at every dose and both genuinely month-to-month. Every cheaper number on the site is a prepaid block rather than a rate: the advertised 'as low as $159' is $477 charged once for three months, shipped together, and restricted to first-time patients in selected states. Zappy also arranges brand Wegovy and Zepbound as a $99 care plan with the medication billed separately, which is a different kind of purchase entirely. It received an FDA warning letter in February 2026 and has since removed the claims that were cited. Weigh the six women's-health factors below against your own priorities.

Metabolic-Fit / 100
CoreAge Rx
Ranked #1 · Grade A−
What we like
- A single flat monthly rate — no teaser first month that jumps at the first refill
- A prescriber reviews your history and will actually talk through timing if you're postpartum, nursing, or planning another pregnancy
- Semaglutide and tirzepatide on one chart, so switching molecules doesn't mean switching providers
The caveats
- Not the lowest sticker price — a couple of budget compounders come in under it
- Compounded only; there's no FDA-approved brand Wegovy or Zepbound lane here
- A general metabolic program, not a dedicated OB or hormone practice
Metabolic-Fit / 100
Zappy Health
Ranked #111 · Grade C
What we like
- A real month-to-month option at a single flat price, not just prepaid tiers
- Same price at every dose, so titrating up never raises the bill
- Removed the claims cited in its FDA letter, verified as absent site-wide
The caveats
- ⚠ Carries an FDA warning letter: issued 20 February 2026 to Kare Solutions, LLC dba Zappy, MARCS-CMS 717991, for false and misleading claims and misbranding in telehealth, with no close-out recorded
- The advertised 'as low as $159/month' is $477 billed once for a three-month block, and is limited to selected states
- How many weeks of medication a 'month' contains is never stated anywhere on the site
