0 of the 8 programs below list semaglutide for less than Novera MD's $94 a month. 2 of the 8 list tirzepatide for less than its $164 a month.
Novera MD lists compounded semaglutide starting at $94.31 a month and tirzepatide at $164.31, but it doesn't say what plan length those figures belong to or what a month costs on its own.
Best for: Shoppers who want GLP-1 care alongside hormone and longevity treatments and are prepared to confirm the real monthly price inside the intake.
What Novera MD does well
- Starting prices for both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are on the product pages before the quiz, with a buy-now-pay-later option
- A licensed physician reviews your answers, and the semaglutide page says your dose is adjusted gradually with check-ins along the way
- Hormone, NAD+, sermorelin, glutathione and MIC + B12 treatments are available from the same account
Why readers look for an alternative
- The $94.31 and $164.31 figures are "starting at" prices, and the plan length, billing cycle and the price for higher doses aren't shown before the intake
- No cancellation or refund policy is published on the site
- It doesn't name the pharmacy that fills prescriptions or the company that runs the site, only that providers come from an independent network
- It claims "50+ states served" without a list, and its terms say availability varies by state
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved products
