The comparison in brief

Novi has the higher Cost-Efficiency Index: 74/100 versus 72/100. That is a value comparison under our published methodology, not a measure of medical suitability or a guarantee of results.

Check the difference in state access

Peter MD: Varies by treatment — semaglutide not in AL, AK, HI or ID, tirzepatide not in AL or ID; additional reported restrictions need confirmation
Novi: Coverage not published

The better fit depends on what is included in your quote. A lower advertised price can require prepayment, apply to a starting dose or leave out a separate fee.

Peter MD

Someone who wants a single telehealth account to also cover TRT, hair loss, ED or NAD+ alongside a GLP-1 script, and who will read past the first-month price before budgeting the ongoing cost.

Reasons to consider it

One account covers TRT, ED, non-GLP-1 weight loss, GLP-1s (semaglutide and tirzepatide), men's hair loss, NAD+ and sermorelin
Physician-prescribed telehealth brand operating since 2021 (Miami, FL HQ)
Sermorelin ($585 for a 12-week supply, ~$195/mo) and NAD+ ($369 for an 8-10 week supply, ~$147-184/mo) sit in the same catalog as the GLP-1 line for anyone consolidating multiple scripts

What to weigh up

Tirzepatide's $149 first-month rate steps up to $249/mo billed quarterly — the number that matters for budgeting is the renewal price, not the headline
Semaglutide pricing depends on tier: $149/mo first-time (Level 1) vs $139/mo returning (Level 2), with different total costs ($447 vs $834) over different supply windows, so the all-in cost is not a single number
State availability is inconsistent across published disclosures: additional restrictions include AR, CA, IA, KY, LA, MA, MI, NC and SC beyond the AL, AK, HI and ID shown on the treatment pages. Confirm eligibility for your state before paying.

Novi

Shoppers who want one price at every dose and can choose between month-to-month billing and a cheaper 3-month plan.

Reasons to consider it

Same price at every dose, with the consult, prescription and shipping included
Month-to-month billing is available, so the 3-month plan is a choice rather than a requirement
No monthly membership fee and cancel-anytime billing

What to weigh up

The headline $99 and $139 figures are 3-month-plan rates billed $297 and $417 up front; month-to-month is $129 and $169
A countdown timer and "was $299" pricing frame the offer as a promotion, and Novi says promotional pricing may change
No state list, medical director or pharmacy is named on its site; the pharmacy appears only in your order emails
