Novi review
Novi’s homepage now lists semaglutide at $129 month-to-month or $297 every three months, and tirzepatide at $169 or $417 every three months. Its medication page still advertises an older annual floor. Confirm the selected plan and renewal amount before paying.

How I scored Novi
Every factor here comes from Novi's own pricing, its disclosures and the signup I walked, and the six add up to the 52/100 Mom-Tested Score on the same weighted six-factor method I use on every provider. Some providers are partners, and we may be paid if you sign up through our links.
Scores low here: getting started asks more of your week than most.
Scores low: pinning down the real ongoing number takes work.
Scores low on choice — the medication menu is narrower here.
Scores high: where you live is unlikely to be the obstacle.
Support is the weakest part of this provider's score.
Exit terms are the weak point: lock-in, notice periods, or a cancellation you have to chase.

What to expect when you sign up
I walked Novi's public signup — a first-hand look at the flow. I don't create accounts, enter medical info, or check out, so this is what any visitor sees, not a patient outcome.
- 1Prices are on the marketing pages before you start, which feels transparent until you notice the homepage, the product pages and the intake all quote different sets
- 2The product pages are the honest ones. The semaglutide page runs 1 month $149, then $130/mo over 3, $129/mo over 6, $88/mo over 12; the tirzepatide page runs 1 month $179, then $149/mo over 3, $133/mo over 6, $129/mo over 12 — and only the top row of each is a monthly price
- 3The intake shows a different, higher price than the pages you shopped from
- 4One intake screen is titled 'Safety, first.' and asks whether you are currently or possibly pregnant, breastfeeding or bottle-feeding with breastmilk, or have given birth in the last six months
- 5The attestation you tick at checkout says cancellation fees may apply and that multi-month packages are not refunded for unused medication or remaining months
What I noticed
- Every attractive per-month figure on this site is a term price divided by its term, not a rate that recurs — the "from $88/mo" in Novi's own semaglutide page title is a twelve-month plan, and the month-to-month price on that same page is $149
- Novi publishes all 50 states plus DC, with a brief video or audio visit required first in Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and West Virginia — everywhere else it is asynchronous
- The pregnancy screening is real and specific, but only 'None of the below' moves the form forward, so I can't tell you what happens if you tick one of the others
- The compounding disclaimer is present and plain on its compounded semaglutide page — the FDA has not evaluated these medications for safety, quality or efficacy
What I like
- The homepage now states monthly and three-month billing totals separately.
- Free shipping, stated plainly in the help center, with cold packs via FedEx, UPS or USPS
- All 50 states plus DC, stated consistently across its own pages, with only five states needing a brief video or audio visit first
- The compounding disclaimer is present and plainly worded — it says outright that the FDA has not evaluated these medications for safety, quality or efficacy
- The intake screens for pregnancy, breastfeeding and having given birth in the last six months
The caveats
- The homepage and product pages show different prices, and the terms require a minimum three-month commitment.
- No compounding pharmacy named, no clinicians named, no medical director, and its About page is broken — the only named humans on the site are testimonial first names
- Its own Notice of Privacy Practices tells you three times to check for updates at a different company's web address, which is sloppy paperwork on the document that governs your health data
What I actually think of Novi
Novi’s homepage now lists semaglutide at $129 month-to-month or $297 every three months, and tirzepatide at $169 or $417 every three months. Its medication page still advertises an older annual floor. Confirm the selected plan and renewal amount before paying.
I look at Novi the way moms actually have to — not just the real monthly number, but nursing and pregnancy timing and canceling without a fight. That's the stuff a generic weight-loss review skips right over.
What Novi really costs
A confirmed monthly cash price for the exact medication and formulation is not established here. Get the product, supply length, full charge and renewal rate in writing before paying. If a clear, upfront price is what you're after, my cheapest-first shortlist is a useful comparison.
Which meds Novi prescribes
Novi prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide. They work differently; a clinician should assess the indication, medical history, contraindications and practical access before choosing between them. Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved finished products like Wegovy and Zepbound. Ask who dispenses the prescription and why a compounded formulation is appropriate for your situation.
Who Novi is — and isn't — for
A good fit if…
- you might need to move between semaglutide and tirzepatide as your body and hormones shift.
- staying covered no matter where you are matters — a move for family shouldn't blow up your care.
Look elsewhere if…
- you specifically want an FDA-approved brand pen with its own pregnancy and lactation labeling.
- you want to be able to cancel without a fight — the exit terms are the part of the fine print I'd read twice here.
- you want to compare another option before deciding — review the published terms and support offered by CoreAge Rx, our featured partner, alongside this provider.
Can you trust it?
I'll be honest: I couldn't verify much — Novi publishes little about how the program actually runs, so you're buying on price and trust in its partners. With any compounded GLP-1, the most useful thing you can do is confirm which licensed pharmacy fills it and what's actually in the formulation — I explain how I weigh oversight in the scoring method.
Pregnancy plans and breastfeeding need a product-specific discussion with your prescriber. Lactation guidance differs by medicine and formulation; limited milk-transfer studies do not establish long-term safety for every infant. See the breastfeeding evidence guide and plan the timing with your own clinician.
So, would I use it?
Novi is a reasonable option — weigh it against the picks below on nursing and pregnancy timing and canceling without a fight. If you want a second option, CoreAge Rx is our featured partner — you can see them side by side in this head-to-head.
The bottom line for moms
Best for: Moms who want a low flat monthly rate with unlimited clinician messaging and free shipping, and who will read the Terms of Service — not the cancel-anytime badge — before entering a card, and check the charged amount against the page they bought from.

Head-to-head & alternatives
Novi, answered
- Can I really cancel Novi anytime?
- The homepage advertises monthly options, while the terms require a minimum three-month commitment and 15 days’ cancellation notice. Confirm the rule that applies to your selected plan in writing.
- Why is the price in Novi's page title so much lower than the one on the page?
- Novi’s homepage now lists semaglutide at $129 month-to-month or $297 every three months, and tirzepatide at $169 or $417 every three months. Its medication page still advertises an older annual floor. Confirm the selected plan and renewal amount before paying.
- When does Novi charge my card?
- The current homepage describes monthly or every-three-month billing, while other terms and support material describe different schedules. Confirm the first charge, next renewal date and recurring interval before paying.
- Does Novi ask about pregnancy or breastfeeding?
- Novi’s public semaglutide page discusses pregnancy and breastfeeding. The earlier signup walkthrough is dated separately; a clinician must assess whether treatment is appropriate.
Pricing, states and verification reflect Novi's public disclosures at last review; the Mom-Tested Score is one mom's editorial judgment per the published method. This is background reading, not medical advice — GLP-1 medications are not established as safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding. See my medical disclaimer and how I'm funded.
