Nurx and CoreAge Rx are both GLP-1 Providers competing for the same patients, but they make different trade-offs on price, coverage, and what's included. In our scoring, Nurx starts lower at $79/mo versus $99/mo, and CoreAge Rx edges ahead overall (8.3 vs 7.5 out of 10). Below we break down pricing, what each plan covers, the six-dimension score, pros and cons, and exactly who should pick which.
Pricing
Nurx
Nurx's own recurring charge, verbatim: 'If you receive weight management treatment from Nurx, you will pay a recurring monthly $79 provider support fee.' A separate ONE-TIME $79 consultation fee applies first: 'Anyone who requests weight management treatment will be charged a $79 consultation fee.' Neither appears in any headline price. Medication is on top of both and Nurx does not dispense the brand GLP-1s — every pen is marked 'In-person pharmacy pick up only' / 'not shipped by Nurx', with cost given only as an average: Zepbound and Ozempic and Mounjaro from $1,000/mo, Wegovy and Saxenda from $1,300/mo, Victoza from $650/mo. Oral options Nurx does fill run $15-$75/mo (metformin $15, topiramate $15-30, bupropion+naltrexone $60, the Nurx 3-in-1 pill $75), so a 3-in-1 reader pays $154/mo all-in, not $75.

About Nurx
Established women's telehealth brand. For weight management it prescribes brand-name GLP-1s for in-person pharmacy pickup rather than shipping them, and fills lower-cost oral options itself. Its own charges are a one-time $79 consultation and a recurring $79/mo provider support fee, both excluded from every advertised medication price.
