Visit NewSelfThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out NewSelf on the Rx-Readiness Score, 95 to 70 (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.
NewSelf is still a genuine option — a flat, dose-independent price for both molecules — $99.97/mo semaglutide, $144.49/mo tirzepatide, same price at every dose — nationwide, though it requires 3 months upfront. 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
NewSelf
Ranked #22 · Grade C
What we like
- Explicitly flat, dose-independent pricing for both molecules — a real differentiator most competitors don't offer
- Nationwide (all 50 states)
- Fast: signup to treatment in as little as 4 days, per the site
The caveats
- Requires 3 months upfront rather than a true month-to-month option
- No named compounding pharmacy or medical director found on the pages checked
- No brand-name (FDA-approved) option and no oral form
