Visit TeleZen MDThe verdict
CoreAge Rx edges out TeleZen MD on the Rx-Readiness Score, 95 to 68 (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.
TeleZen MD is still a genuine option — the one confirmed nationwide pick in this batch — all 50 states, explicitly stated — with a $168/mo semaglutide, $268/mo tirzepatide month-to-month rate that only drops to $129/$199 on a full year prepaid upfront.

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
TeleZen MD
Ranked #34 · Grade C
What we like
- Explicitly states all-50-state coverage
- No membership or hidden fees stated
- Both molecules available
The caveats
- The advertised lowest price requires a full year prepaid upfront — the real month-to-month rate is notably higher
- Prepaying multiple months raises mid-term cancellation and refund questions the site does not address
- No published support-channel details
