Modern Age is a New York longevity clinic whose weight program prescribes brand-name Wegovy or Ozempic, or metformin. It starts with a required $500 Aging Wellness Assessment (blood draw, bone scan, at-home tests, a one-hour clinician review), then a $500 six-month program. The drug is billed by its partner pharmacy, which tries your insurance; the clinic puts the uninsured cost at $900 to $1,600 a month. The assessment is offered only in New York.
Is Modern Age legit?
Yes. Modern Age is a real, operating US company, and we found no FDA warning letters issued to it. We rate it 6.0/10 overall, across six areas from price to trust and safety. Legitimate is not the same as right for you, though: that part is a decision for you and a licensed clinician.
Is there a Modern Age promo or coupon code?
We know of no promo or coupon code for Modern Age. Coupon sites advertising "Modern Age discount codes" are not a source we can vouch for, and any genuine offer shows at checkout without a code.

How Modern Age scores
Six columns, each one computed from something Modern Age has published rather than from an opinion we formed: what it charges, which molecules it will dispense, what its record shows, and what the monthly figure actually buys. Where a seller keeps something back, such as its price or its pharmacy, the score reflects it. Every seller we review goes through the same six columns.

What signing up with Modern Age involves
What to expect on the way to a prescription: where the price appears, who fills the medication, and what the monthly price covers. It is not medical advice, and a clinician makes the prescribing decision.
- 1Modern Age shows a price only after you finish its medical questionnaire, so you cannot compare costs until you have shared health information.
- 2The intake requires baseline bloodwork before a first prescription, which takes longer than a written form and is the more careful route.
- 3Ask Modern Age which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay. The pharmacy's name is what lets you check its license.
- Lowest ongoing monthly price: semaglutide $900. That leaves out membership fees, first-month rates and insurance copays.
- Modern Age serves 1 of 50 states, so check that yours is one of them.

Check the price yourself before you pay
Every figure here comes from Modern Age's own website, as of the date shown. Sellers move prices without announcing it, and promotional rates lapse, so confirm the standing cost on their site before committing.
In its favor
- Semaglutide costs $900 a month, 31% below the $1,299 median for brand-name semaglutide across the sellers we compare
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to Modern Age
- Baseline bloodwork is required before a prescription
Against it
- You only see a price after finishing the medical intake, so you cannot compare costs before sharing health information
- Serves one state only, so check that it is yours
- Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
What Modern Age charges
There is no standard monthly price to quote for Modern Age, so you cannot compare it with other sellers until you have been through an intake and received a quote. When you get one, ask for the ongoing monthly figure and what it includes, not the first-month rate and not a program total divided by its length. Before you pay, compare Modern Age's cancellation terms with other sellers' cancellation and refund policies. Modern Age is not alone in this: about a fifth of GLP-1 sellers publish no price at all.
What Modern Age dispenses
Modern Age prescribes semaglutide (approved as Wegovy and Ozempic). That is one of the most heavily studied molecules in this class. These are FDA-approved brand-name products rather than compounded preparations, which is the more expensive route and the one where what is in the pen has been reviewed. Brand names vs molecules sorts out which pen holds which drug.
Safety and disclosure
Modern Age tells you the 1 states it serves. We found no FDA warning letters issued to Modern Age. The FDA's warning signs for online medicine sellers are a quick check to run on any seller before you pay. How we weigh oversight, disclosure and price is set out in our scoring methodology.
Modern Age also sells NAD+, and a 2026 systematic review found no outcomes trials of injected NAD+ for anti-aging or wellness.
Who should look elsewhere
- You want to compare prices before spending time on an intake. There is no standard monthly price to compare.
- You need insurance to cover the cost. Check whether Modern Age bills your plan before you start.
Our read
Whether Modern Age is priced well is impossible to judge before an intake, because there is no standard price to compare. That does not rule it out, and plenty of legitimate sellers quote after intake, but it puts the comparison after you have spent the time, which is the wrong order for you as the buyer. WellMedRx is the nearest comparison we review, and worth reading alongside this.
The Bottom Line
Modern Age falls below our bar on disclosure. Its brand-name semaglutide costs $900 a month, 31% below the $1,299 median among the sellers we compare.

Where Modern Age is the wrong choice
No seller suits every reader, and pretending otherwise is the easiest way to sell one. On these two counts, another seller does better.
- If you want a human checking in, not just a prescription, consider Found.
- If your state is outside the area this one covers, consider YourEra.
If none of these fits, our guide to alternatives to Modern Age sets more sellers in the same category beside Modern Age on price, states and what the price includes.
