Head-to-head comparison
CoreAge Rx vs WellMedr
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
Both molecules, a real brand-name Ozempic and Zepbound lane and an eight-SKU microdose line — advertised from $49 a month, a floor the company's own banner ties to a twelve-month plan and bills every four weeks.
From $49/mo (from-price, 12-month term) sema · From $89/mo tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: The microdose page headlines "ZERO Side Effects" over a subhead reading "Zero side effct for 70%+ of members" (their typo) — an unqualified claim for a compounded GLP-1, on a page carrying none of the thyroid or compounding warnings the pricing page does
CoreAge Rx takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 94/100 (A) against 55/100 (C) for WellMedr. WellMedr still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
