Nu Image Medical review
One of the network's longer-established telehealth operators (since 2008) — as low as $99/mo semaglutide, $269/mo tirzepatide — though state coverage isn't itemized beyond a 'trusted nationwide' claim. Its menu extends well beyond GLP-1s into ED treatment, testosterone, and hair regrowth, all on the same account.

How I scored Nu Image Medical
Every factor here comes from Nu Image Medical's own pricing, its disclosures and the signup I walked, and the six add up to the 57/100 Mom-Tested Score on the same weighted six-factor method I use on every provider — never nudged by whether a provider pays us.
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 low: whether it reaches you is the open question.
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.

$99 and $269, both 'as low as'. 'Trusted nationwide' is on the site, but there's no state list anywhere, so that's a slogan rather than an answer. Neither the price nor the geography is settled until you apply.
What to expect when you sign up
I walked Nu Image Medical's public signup funnel (August 2026) — 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.
- 1Homepage lists 'As low as $X/mo' starting prices for semaglutide and tirzepatide directly, before intake
- 2Operating since 2008 — branded 'OG since 2008, Pioneering telehealth' — one of the longer operating histories in this batch
- 3Claims over 1,000,000 patient encounters and a 4.9/5 rating from 30,000+ verified patients
- 4Also offers a broad menu beyond GLP-1s: ED treatment, testosterone, hormone optimization, hair regrowth
What I noticed
- Longer operating history (since 2008) than most providers in this round, which predate the recent GLP-1 telehealth wave
- 'As low as' framing means the exact price at a working dose isn't guaranteed by the homepage number
- No state-coverage list published on the pages checked, despite 'trusted nationwide' marketing language
- No mention of a scheduled video call anywhere on the site; no named compounding pharmacy or medical director found either

HSA and FSA usually work for this — worth checking your own plan. The prices here are what Nu Image Medical's public disclosures showed at last review, and they change often; confirm the current number on Nu Image Medical's own site.
What I like
- Operating since 2008 — a longer track record than most providers in this round
- Claims over 1,000,000 patient encounters and a 4.9/5 rating from 30,000+ verified patients
- Broad treatment menu beyond GLP-1s on the same platform (ED, testosterone, hair)
- Both molecules available as injections with real starting prices
The caveats
- Both prices are framed as 'As low as' — the exact cost at a working dose isn't guaranteed
- No itemized state-coverage list published, only 'trusted nationwide' marketing language
- No named compounding pharmacy or medical director found on the pages checked
- No published statement on whether a video visit is required, brand-name option, or oral form
What I actually think of Nu Image Medical
One of the network's longer-established telehealth operators (since 2008) — as low as $99/mo semaglutide, $269/mo tirzepatide — though state coverage isn't itemized beyond a 'trusted nationwide' claim. Its menu extends well beyond GLP-1s into ED treatment, testosterone, and hair regrowth, all on the same account. It runs about $99/month — toward the cheaper end of what I walked.
I look at Nu Image Medical 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 Nu Image Medical really costs
- Compounded semaglutide — Starting price: $99/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide — Starting price: $269/mo
That's under the roughly $179 median I found across the providers I walked — real money back in the grocery budget.
Which meds Nu Image Medical prescribes
Nu Image Medical prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide — the two with the strongest published weight-loss numbers, and having both on one account genuinely matters if insulin resistance is in the mix (which it often is with PCOS or after gestational diabetes), because that's when tirzepatide tends to be the better fit. These are compounded from a licensed pharmacy — that's why the price stays down — but compounded GLP-1s aren't FDA-approved finished products the way Wegovy and Zepbound are, and it's worth knowing that going in.
Who Nu Image Medical is — and isn't — for
A good fit if…
- money is the actual barrier and you want a low, predictable number you can plan around.
- you might need to move between semaglutide and tirzepatide as your body and hormones shift.
Look elsewhere if…
- you specifically want an FDA-approved brand pen with its own pregnancy and lactation labeling.
- you'd rather a prescriber actually talk through nursing and pregnancy timing with you — that's what my #1 pick, CoreAge Rx, is built to do.
Can you trust it?
My confidence is middling — the core facts hold up, but some details (per-state availability, how the program really runs) aren't fully public. 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.
One line that's true of every provider on this site: no GLP-1 is established as safe in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, and the labels say don't. This is me reviewing a commercial signup, not giving you a green light — the timing call is yours and your clinician's.
So, would I use it?
Nu Image Medical is a genuine budget play — weigh it against the picks below on nursing and pregnancy timing and canceling without a fight. For most moms, CoreAge Rx is still the stronger all-round fit — and you can see them side by side in this head-to-head.
The bottom line for moms
Best for: Moms who want a longer operating track record behind the program and are comfortable confirming both the real working-dose price and their state eligibility at intake.
If Nu Image Medical isn't the one
Providers I have a referral relationship with, ordered by Mom-Tested Score — highest first. A fee never moves a score, but it does decide who shows up in this box, so it isn't everyone: my full ranking has every provider, paid or not.
- Visit CoreAge RxMom-Tested Score94/100ACoreAge RxMy #1 pick
The one I'd point a friend to first: I finished the intake in a single nap, the price on screen was the price I'd actually pay, and both semaglutide and tirzepatide were right there on one account.
- Visit Pallas HealthMom-Tested Score86/100B+
Pallas is one of the few places that will sell you either the cheap compounded route or the real brand-name pen without making you pick a provider first — compounded semaglutide works out to about $199 a month and tirzepatide about $299, while actual Zepbound, Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro sit alongside them at cash-pay prices from $1,069. The price genuinely doesn't climb as you titrate, Pallas says so plainly on its own site, and the clinician, dose adjustments, check-ins and messaging are all inside that one number with no membership fee stacked on top. Two clinicians are named and both check out in the federal NPI registry, the LegitScript badge it displays is a real one, and it publishes an actual refund policy — full refund if a clinician turns you down, and a $5 processing fee if you cancel a qualifying payment — which is more paperwork than most of this market bothers with. The two things to know before you commit: it bills every 12 weeks in $597 and $897 chunks rather than monthly, and it never names its compounding pharmacy.
- Visit Trimi HealthMom-Tested Score85/100B
The price-first pick: some of the lowest flat, all-inclusive pricing I found, in all 50 states — great if the monthly number is your whole decision and you read the annual-prepay fine print before you sign.

Head-to-head & alternatives
Nu Image Medical, answered
- How much does Nu Image Medical cost?
- As I last checked, Nu Image Medical's pricing starts around $99/month (As low as $99/mo semaglutide, As low as $269/mo tirzepatide). Confirm the current, all-in number on Nu Image Medical's own site before you commit — these move.
- Is Nu Image Medical okay to use while I'm breastfeeding?
- No — and that's true of every GLP-1, compounded or brand: none is established as safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding, and the labels say don't. Nu Image Medical is no exception. Plan any GLP-1 for after weaning and talk the timing through with your own clinician. I'm a mom, not a doctor.
- Does Nu Image Medical have both semaglutide and tirzepatide?
- Yes — Nu Image Medical offers both. Tirzepatide's dual GIP/GLP-1 action is often the one clinicians reach for when insulin resistance drives weight, which matters if you've got PCOS or a history of gestational diabetes.
- Where does Nu Image Medical land on your list?
- Nu Image Medical scores 57/100 on the Mom-Tested Score (ranked #187), which weights the six things that actually matter when you're doing this around kids. My #1 pick, CoreAge Rx, leads the list — worth seeing how they stack up.
Pricing, states and verification reflect Nu Image Medical'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.
