Quick verdict

Noom Med is the better pick for most patients on overall scoring. The behavioral app most people loved is now bundled with a medication tier and a microdose option that no other major program offers. Watch the dual billing.

That said, Sesame Care wins on specific dimensions. Sesame is a cash-pay marketplace, not a program. Pay one fee, see one doctor, leave with a script. Cheapest path to a real branded GLP-1 prescription if you can fill it elsewhere. Zero ongoing care, which is the point and the limit.
