Nova review
Value Score76/100
A membership model that prices honestly for once — $198 a month all-in for semaglutide with the $99 membership inside the figure — undercut by three different price sets live on the same pages and a floor that rises with dose.

How much does Nova cost?
The price Nova publishes is $198/mo month-to-month, all-in including the $99-a-month membership — a starting-at floor that rises with dose. Tirzepatide is listed at $210/mo month-to-month, all-in on the same basis. We flag this one to watch: confirm the ongoing rate with Nova before you count on it.

The Value Score card
Nova scored on our six published factors. See the methodology.
What's good
- The quoted figure is all-in: medication, free shipping and the $99-a-month membership are inside $198 and $210 rather than stacked afterward, which is the arrangement most membership desks avoid publishing
- A daily oral low-dose route is priced openly at $169 for semaglutide and $174 for tirzepatide, so the needle-free option has a number rather than a consultation
- A medical director and a nurse practitioner are named with credentials and background, which is more than most GLP-1 sellers publish
- The pharmacy class is stated and narrowed: 503A pharmacies specifically, named as such in the questions and in the terms
- Coverage is stated as a count with the exclusion named — forty-nine states, everywhere except California — rather than as an unqualified all-fifty claim
- Cancellation is at the end of the current period with two days' notice before the renewal date, stated in the terms rather than in marketing copy
Read the fine print
- Three price sets are live at the same time: $198 and $210 in the hero, $229 and $279 in the same pages' own questions, and a third set again in the shipped code
- The arithmetic the questions give does not reach the advertised price: $99 of membership plus $130 of medication is $229, not the $198 in the hero, and the tirzepatide sum lands at $279 against a $210 hero
- Every figure is a starting-at floor that rises with dose, and no dose-to-price table exists anywhere, so the cost of a maintenance dose is unpublished
- The pricing page puts the program floor under a heading saying medication is billed separately while the product page for the same item says the figure includes medication, shipping and the membership
- Two pages promise you are only charged if a provider prescribes, while the refund policy says membership and consultation fees are not refundable including where the provider declines
- One page still tells readers that care comes from professionals licensed in two named states, on a site whose footer claims forty-nine
- No compounding pharmacy and no medical group is named, across twenty-one pages and the full code bundle — only class labels
- Two products listed in the site's own page index render as not found, and the support page prints a contact address on a different domain from the rest of the site
- No phone number is published for the company anywhere
The bottom line
Best for: Shoppers who want the membership inside the quoted figure rather than bolted on afterward, and who will ask what a maintenance dose costs before starting.

- $224/mo month-to-month, billed every 4 weeksVaylen— Publishes nothing until you finish a fifteen-step intake, and then quotes $224 a month for semaglutide - or $99 if it is your first order, or $83 if you commit to 48 weeks up front.76/100
- From $179/moHenry Meds— Henry Meds bundles treatment and follow-up into one subscription, but its $179 starting figure is not a quote for every medication or dose. My main reservation is the difference between canceling future renewals and escaping the balance of a longer plan.76/100
- From $199/mo injectableBreeze Meds— Nationwide and charges nothing until you are approved, but its quoted prices are floors rather than what a working dose costs.76/100
- $150/mo month-to-month, flat at every doseTrellis Vitality— Compounded semaglutide at $150 and tirzepatide at $199 a month, flat at every dose with the month-to-month rate printed first — on a page that never says what the figure includes and beside two fees the marketing does not mention.76/100
- $149Idgie Health— Publishes the amount billed today at every rung and names its 503A class — beside a Membership Fee that lives only in the Terms.76/100
- From $179/moGala Health— Gala bundles compounded GLP-1 medication, provider access and an app, with pricing from $179 a month on a yearly subscription. The shorter advertised option starts at $199 a month for three months.75/100
