The verdict

Nova MD takes it — 66.9/100 to 66.1/100, but only just.

Nova MD grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Nova MD is a telehealth platform offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on 1-month and 3-month plans, with an uncommon explicit microdose program for both molecules. boostAGErx is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.

boostAGErx

Graded #201 · C

Strengths

  • Compounded GLP-1 starting around $95/mo (12-month plan paid upfront)
  • Free shipping and clinical evaluation included
  • Membership fee refunded in full if you're not approved
  • Also offers peptide therapy such as sermorelin
  • 100% online with licensed providers — no clinic visit

Where it loses points

  • Billing runs on a 28-day cycle rather than a calendar month — thirteen charges a year, so the $145 tirzepatide rate is $1,885 a year, an effective $157/mo
  • The terms call the charge a 'membership fee' while the marketing carousel says 'No Membership Fees Ever'
  • Prices are rendered entirely in JavaScript; the page's HTML body is empty, so nothing is readable without running the bundle
  • Shipped compounded medication is non-refundable
  • Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
Nova MD

Graded #174 · C

Strengths

  • On-page pricing published for all four SKUs (semaglutide and tirzepatide, 1- and 3-month)
  • $125/mo semaglutide and $199/mo tirzepatide 3-month plans rank among the cheapest in the market
  • $50 off first tirzepatide order shown publicly
  • Explicit microdose / low-dose program for both semaglutide and tirzepatide
  • Broader menu (sermorelin, NAD+, glutathione, enclomiphene) for longevity alongside GLP-1

Where it loses points

  • Legal entity name and state of incorporation not disclosed
  • Compounding pharmacy not named — only 'accredited facilities'
  • LegitScript certification not confirmed (only 'Licensed US Providers' claims)
  • Per-state availability not listed
  • Compounded only — no brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, or Ozempic
