Head-to-head comparison
CoreAge Rx vs Gala Health
Two GLP-1 providers, one scorecard. Both are graded on the same six Desk Score dimensions — here is how they stack up, and which one fits you.
Desk Score
One price at every dose, both molecules, all 50 states. The $99 and $149 figures are 12-month plans paid up front, not a monthly bill.
$99/mo (12-month prepay) sema · $149/mo (12-month prepay) tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: The advertised $99/$149 per month is a 12-month plan paid in full ($1,188 / $1,788 up front); no month-to-month price is published
Desk Score
A women's desk that pairs a genuine brand-name Ozempic path with low compounded pricing in all 50 states — every rate of which is a yearly subscription.
$1,299/mo (brand-name) sema · $179/mo (see conditions) tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: No month-to-month price is published anywhere — the $179/mo hero now reads “$179/mo all doses, no hidden fees” and the term has moved into a shared footnote under the treatment cards (“Price calculated based on a yearly subscription plan”), the $149/mo microdose tier carries the same term, and the FAQ quotes a third figure at “starting at just $199 per month (with a 3-month plan)”
CoreAge Rx takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 94/100 (A) against 81/100 (B−) for Gala Health. Gala Health still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
