NovoCare Pharmacy vs Omada Health
The verdict
Omada Health takes it — 55.6/100 to 55.2/100, but only just.
Omada Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Omada Health is a virtual care company offering behavior-change programs for weight health, diabetes and hypertension, distributed through employers and health plans. NovoCare Pharmacy is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Strengths

- Manufacturer-set pricing can change at any time
- $199 pen intro covers only the first 2 fills for new patients (through 6/30/2026); maintenance doses are $349/mo ($399 HD)
