CoreAge Rx vs Factor Health MD
CoreAge Rx and Factor Health MD both offer GLP-1 telehealth, but they make different trade-offs on speed to first dose, flat pricing, access and molecule choice. Here they are side-by-side on the Rx-Readiness Score — our readiness rubric.

Visit Factor Health MDThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out Factor Health MD on the Rx-Readiness Score, 95 to 51 (A vs C). Working moms who want a decision, not a research project — flat pricing, both semaglutide and tirzepatide, and no scheduled video visit to book around work and pickup.
Factor Health MD is still a genuine option — a three-molecule menu — semaglutide, tirzepatide, and the less commonly offered liraglutide at $150/mo — starting at $99/mo with 'all doses included' pricing and HSA/FSA accepted, though the homepage's combined banner and its separate tirzepatide listing don't clearly say which price is for which drug. Weigh the six readiness factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx
Ranked #1 · Grade A
What we like
- Flat monthly price that stays put through titration — no dose-scaling surprise on your busiest month
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on one plan, so you're not re-signing to switch
- Async, no-video intake and all-50-states coverage — start it during a lunch break
The caveats
- Not the rock-bottom sticker price — a couple of teaser tiers elsewhere start lower
- Compounded only — no FDA-approved brand option
- General metabolic program, not a boutique concierge service
Factor Health MD
Ranked #129 · Grade C
What we like
- Rare three-GLP-1-class menu, including liraglutide for patients sensitive to newer molecules
- 'All doses included' pricing — no per-dose escalation while titrating
- HSA/FSA accepted, uncommon for compounded GLP-1 programs
The caveats
- The homepage's combined '$99/month' banner and the separate '$149/month Tirzepatide Plus' listing aren't clearly reconciled
- No published time-to-first-dose
- A multi-vertical storefront — weight loss sits alongside longevity, men's health, and vitamin-injectable products
