Noom

Noom app users who want prescribing bundled with coaching, whether that's a compounded drug or a brand-name one through insurance.

Reasons to consider it

  • Prescribes brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic and Mounjaro plus the Wegovy and Foundayo pills, as well as compounded options
  • Compounded plans are all-inclusive: clinical care, medication and the Noom app in one price
  • Combines prescribing with Noom's established behavioral-coaching app

What to weigh up

  • The $129 and $149 opening prices cover only the first four weeks; after that it's $249 or $299 a month, billed a quarter at a time
  • The brand-name plan's $129 a month doesn't include the medication itself
  • Not available in all 50 states, with no state list published

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.

AVARA Rx

Shoppers in any state who want compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide from a platform that names its pharmacy and clinical network.

Reasons to consider it

  • Names its pharmacy partner (DiRx Health, Ft Lauderdale FL) — buyers can independently verify its licensure
  • Names its clinical network (Beluga Health) — you can research the platform handling your prescriptions
  • All 50 states explicitly listed on the FAQ — uncommon vs peers that just say 'nationwide'

What to weigh up

  • Operating legal entity not disclosed — only a Sheridan, WY registered-agent-style address surfaced
  • Dose pricing not itemized — only 'starting at $229' semaglutide and 'starting at $279' tirzepatide
  • LegitScript certification number not shown — badge only, so no direct lookup

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.
