Verdict

Noom built the behavioral app most people loved. It now sells a medication tier, and a microdose protocol no other big program runs. Watch the two bills.

Pros

  • Branded Wegovy and Zepbound are on the menu, not just compounded.
  • There is a microdosed compounded semaglutide option for people who react badly to a full dose.
  • The coaching app comes with the medication tier.
  • Month to month, with no exit fee.
  • It is sold in all 50 states.

Cons

  • The app and the medication tier renew on their own cycles, which confuses some members.
  • Auto-renewal is on by default, and members report charges they did not expect.
  • Supply of the drug swings between partner pharmacies.
  • The branded telehealth tier, $149 to start then $99/mo, leaves the drug out. That price is not what you pay in total.
  • The coaching content is wasted on you if all you want is a prescription.
Best for

People who want CBT-style coaching with their medicine, or who want a microdosed GLP-1.

Not for

People who want the drug and nothing else, or who find the Noom app annoying.

Lock-in and how to cancel

  • Cancel anytime

You cancel online yourself. Lock-in is not the common complaint. The app and the Med tier renew on their own cycles, and that confuses people.

How to cancel: Month to month, cancel online, no fee. GLP-1Rx is billed every quarter, so you pay out the current 12-week cycle.

Which drugs you can get

FDA-approved branded as the primary path; 503A-compounded only for the microdosing protocol. Mostly insulated from compounded enforcement risk.

About compounded GLP-1 in 2026.

A licensed US pharmacy makes compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide to a prescription. They are not FDA-approved and they are not Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound or Mounjaro. The FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness or quality, and their formulation, including the salt form, can differ from the approved drug. Confirm the active ingredient and the pharmacy with the prescriber. The FDA removed semaglutide from the drug-shortage list in February 2025, which narrowed the legal basis for routine 503A compounding of exact-copy semaglutide. Noom Med uses a personalized-formulation model: the compound adds an active ingredient such as vitamin B12. Some state pharmacy boards tightened oversight through 2025 and 2026. For the full background see our compounded vs FDA-approved breakdown.

FDA-approved branded

  • Wegovy
  • Wegovy oral pill
  • Zepbound

Compounded

  • Microdosed compounded semaglutide (Noom-branded protocol)

Other medications

  • Metformin
  • Bupropion-naltrexone
  • Phentermine

Noom Med reviews: what members report

Trustpilot 4.3 with 66k+ reviews mostly reflects the behavioral app, not Noom Med specifically. Reddit r/Noom and r/loseit show the bait-and-switch frustration between behavioral and medication tiers.

What works

  • Behavioral content quality
  • Clinician availability
  • Microdose option for patients sensitive to side effects

What to watch

  • Behavioral app and Med tier billed separately
  • Auto-renewal confusion
  • Med supply inconsistency across pharmacies

Frequently asked questions

Is Noom Med legit?
Yes. Noom Med is a real, operating GLP-1 telehealth service that connects you with a licensed US clinician and a pharmacy. On our independent review it scores 8.0 out of 10, graded on pricing transparency, cancellation terms, onboarding, medication options and member reviews. Its cash price starts at $249/mo. It bills month-to-month with no lock-in. To decide whether it fits your budget and needs, read the verdict and the full score breakdown above.
Is Noom Med a scam?
No. We found no evidence that Noom Med is a scam. It is a functioning telehealth program with licensed prescribers, real medication and a published cancellation policy, not a fake storefront. The caveats are in our score of 8.0 out of 10: pricing and the maintenance-dose total are the things to check, since the advertised figure is often the starter dose. Compare it against the rest of the chart before deciding.
What's a microdosed GLP-1 protocol?
You start at a fraction of the normal dose and go up very slowly. One example is 0.1mg of semaglutide instead of 0.25mg. Some people get fewer gut side effects that way. It is not a defined clinical protocol. It is an off-label route that Noom Med runs with compounded semaglutide, because branded products do not come in that dose.
Why are Noom and Noom Med billed separately?
Noom is the coaching app, and it came first as its own product. Noom Med is a separate medical service that launched later. They share a brand and a login, but they bill on their own. Sign up for one and you are not signed up for the other. Members say this trips them up more than anything else.
Does Noom Med work with insurance?
For Wegovy and Zepbound, yes. Noom Med will file the prior authorization with your plan. The Noom Med subscription itself is not covered.
How much is Noom GLP-1 per month?
The standard Full-Dose GLP-1Rx plan is $249 a month once you are past the start price, billed every quarter, and the first month is $129. That price covers the care, the compounded semaglutide and the digital program. The Microdose tier is $179 a month, or $79 to start. The tirzepatide option, GLP-1Rx Plus, is $299 a month, or $149 to start. If you want branded Wegovy or Zepbound instead, the telehealth tier starts at $39 then $99 a month, and your plan is billed for the drug.
