Who Nu Image Medical may suit
Shoppers comfortable choosing a multi-month compounded injection or rapid-dissolve-tablet supply after a provider review.
Where the value is
- Publishes the identity of all four fulfillment pharmacies in its terms (Absolute Pharmacy LLC, Belmar Pharma Solutions, The Pharmacy Hub, TMC Acquisition dba Tailor Made Compounding) rather than staying anonymous about who compounds the medication
- LegitScript certified with a visible certificate number (453964)
- Both injectable and rapid-dissolve-tablet (RDT) formulations available for both semaglutide and tirzepatide
- Names a Medical Advisory Board (Dr. Fernando Mariz, Dr. Constance Tambakis-Odom) rather than staying fully anonymous on clinical oversight
The tradeoffs
- The advertised injection rate is tied to a six-month supply, not a confirmed month-to-month plan
- Your prescribed dose and chosen supply determine the final quote
- Prescriptions are non-refundable, with a separate limited exception for eligible WAYT-less patients
- Auto-renewal must be stopped at least 48 hours before the next billing date
What Nu Image Medical charges
Nu Image Medical has sold medication online since 2008, and GLP-1s are one part of a catalog that also covers hormones, sexual health and hair loss. Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injections are advertised "as low as" $89 a month on a six-month supply. Get a quote for the supply length you choose before you pay.
Both drugs also come as daily rapid-dissolve tablets, which Nu Image calls RDTs. Their advertised $89 monthly rate is tied to a five-month supply.
Nu Image notes that pricing varies by plan and subscription, and every treatment needs a medical evaluation first. It's cash-pay; insurance isn't involved.
Considering Nu Image Medical?
Check the plan total, billing period and cancellation terms before you enroll. A clinician decides whether treatment is appropriate.
Programs built around the drugs
Besides the straight prescriptions, Nu Image sells two branded programs. WAYT-less is a 90-day weight-loss program, and WAYT-Tain is a lower-cost maintenance plan for after you've lost weight. Eligible first-time WAYT-less patients may qualify for a refund under its own 90-day program terms, which is the only exception to the company's no-refund rule. Read those terms before you choose between the program and a standalone prescription.
The company also sells non-GLP-1 weight options, such as low-dose naltrexone blends.
How it works
You take a short quiz, then a licensed U.S. provider reviews your health information and decides whether a prescription fits. If it does, a state-licensed compounding pharmacy prepares the medication, and it ships to your door in discreet packaging. Nu Image doesn't say up front which pharmacy will fill your order, so ask if it matters to you.
Nu Image displays a LegitScript certification. It lists a medical advisory board but no single medical director.
Auto-renewal and refunds
Read the refund policy before you order, because it's strict. All sales are final. Nu Image doesn't accept returns or give refunds, even for unused medication, except for a defective or damaged product. In that case it sends a replacement, but only if you file a ticket with proof of purchase within 7 days of delivery.
Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel. You can cancel in your account, but you have to do it at least 48 hours before the renewal processing date or you'll be charged for the next period. On a six-month supply, the amount due and the renewal schedule are worth confirming before you commit.
