The short answer

Noom Med operates two distinct programs with different pricing models. The Microdose GLP-1Rx program bundles medication and service at an introductory first-period rate of $79 for three weeks of subscription plus four weeks of medication, then moves to a $179/month ongoing rate billed as a 12-week subscription (noom.com/med/glp1-microdose/, captured September 4, 2026). The Core Med clinical program charges $129/month when billed quarterly—$387 upfront every three months—but explicitly excludes medication cost (noom.com/med/pricing/, captured September 4, 2026). Noom Med also lists branded injections and a GLP-1Rx Plus program, but product details and pricing for those options require completing the eligibility flow. If you're comparing all-in monthly medication costs, the microdose program's introductory first-period rate of $79 transitions to a $179/month ongoing rate, which is the only documented medication-inclusive figure.

Noom Med Microdose: introductory rate and renewal pricing

The Noom Med Microdose GLP-1Rx program advertises an introductory first-period offer of $79, which covers a three-week subscription plus four weeks of medication (noom.com/med/glp1-microdose/, captured September 4, 2026). After that introductory period ends, the program moves to an ongoing rate of $179/month, billed as a 12-week subscription. Assuming the introductory period covers approximately one month and the remaining eleven months are billed at the ongoing rate, the 12-month total comes to $2,048—an effective monthly cost of $170.67 over the first year (our calculation, derived from published rates). The exact duration covered by the "3-week subscription + 4 weeks medication" bundle is not specified on the pricing page; if the introductory period covers less than one full month, the effective 12-month cost would be higher.

The microdose program is medication-inclusive, meaning the $179 ongoing monthly rate bundles the medication and clinical support. No separate membership or service fee is listed for this track.

Noom Med Core Med: service fee and separate medication cost

Noom Med's Core Med clinical program charges $129/month when billed quarterly, which translates to a $387 upfront charge every three months (noom.com/med/pricing/, captured September 4, 2026). The pricing page explicitly states that this fee does not include medication cost. Over 12 months, the Core Med service fee alone totals $1,548 if billed as four quarterly cycles (our calculation, derived from published rates). The actual out-of-pocket cost would be higher once medication is added, but separate medication pricing is not published on Noom Med's public pricing pages; product and formulation details appear to require completing the eligibility questionnaire.

This structure differs from the microdose program and from all-inclusive competitors. If you're evaluating total monthly cost, you'll need to confirm the medication charge during intake to compare the Core Med path against bundled alternatives.

Normalized 12-month cost: microdose program and PlexusDx

Because the Core Med program excludes medication pricing from public documentation, we can make a like-for-like comparison only between Noom Med's Microdose program and PlexusDx's semaglutide injection offering, both of which bundle medication and service.

Program Billing Cadence 12-Month Total Effective Monthly
Noom Med Microdose (intro + ongoing) $79 first period, then $179/month × 11 months $2,048 $170.67/month
PlexusDx Semaglutide Injection (MTM) $189/month × 12 $2,268 $189/month
PlexusDx Semaglutide Injection (3-month prepaid) $169/month × 12 $2,028 $169/month
PlexusDx Semaglutide Injection (6-month prepaid) $149/month × 12 $1,788 $149/month

All figures labeled "our calculation" are derived from published rates using standard arithmetic; the underlying per-month or per-period prices are as verified. Noom Med's microdose effective monthly cost of $170.67 accounts for the introductory first-period rate followed by eleven months at the ongoing rate. PlexusDx's 3-month and 6-month rates are prepaid per-month equivalents; you pay the full commitment upfront.

Other Noom Med programs: branded and GLP-1Rx Plus

Noom Med's pricing page (captured September 4, 2026) indicates that branded injections and a GLP-1Rx Plus program are available, but product details, formulations, and pricing for these tracks are not published. The site notes that "product/formulation details require eligibility flow," meaning you'll see those options and their costs after completing the intake questionnaire. If you're interested in branded semaglutide (Wegovy or Ozempic) or a higher-dose GLP-1 track, you'll need to start the eligibility assessment to see what Noom Med offers and at what price.

What's included in each Noom Med program

Both Noom Med programs offer clinician access and Noom's behavior-change platform, but the cost structure differs:

  • Microdose GLP-1Rx: Medication, clinical oversight, and Noom's digital tools bundled into the introductory and ongoing monthly rates. No separate service fee.
  • Core Med: Clinical program and digital support billed quarterly at $129/month ($387 every three months). Medication is prescribed and billed separately; pricing not published.

PlexusDx bundles the provider visit, prescription, compounded medication, and shipping into a single monthly price with no separate membership or service fee. The same price applies at every dose—maintenance, titration, or higher therapeutic doses all cost the same per month.

Quarterly billing and upfront commitment

Noom Med's Core Med program requires quarterly billing after the first month. You pay $387 upfront every three months, which works out to $129/month (our calculation, derived from published rates). This is a prepayment model: you commit to three months at a time. The Microdose program bills as a 12-week subscription after the introductory period, which similarly requires a multi-month commitment at the ongoing $179/month rate.

PlexusDx offers month-to-month billing at $189/month for semaglutide injection with no upfront commitment, or prepaid 3-month and 6-month options at lower per-month rates ($169 and $149 respectively). The prepaid options require paying the full period upfront but deliver a lower effective monthly cost over 12 months.

Choose Noom Med Microdose if…

  • You want a microdose GLP-1 protocol and value the integration with Noom's behavior-change platform.
  • You're comfortable with the introductory pricing transitioning to a $179/month ongoing rate billed as a 12-week subscription.
  • The bundled medication and service model fits your preference for a single monthly charge.

Choose Noom Med Core Med if…

  • You want access to Noom's clinical program and digital tools but plan to obtain medication through another channel or need flexibility in medication sourcing.
  • You're willing to pay a separate quarterly service fee and manage medication cost independently.
  • You value the behavior-change curriculum and are prepared to confirm medication pricing during the intake process.

Choose PlexusDx if…

  • You want all-inclusive semaglutide pricing—visit, prescription, medication, and shipping—with no separate membership fee.
  • You prefer the flexibility of month-to-month billing at $189/month or the cost savings of prepaid 3-month ($169/month) or 6-month ($149/month) commitments.
  • You value the same-price-at-every-dose model, which holds your monthly cost steady whether you're titrating or at a maintenance dose.
  • You want upfront, published pricing with no eligibility-gated cost discovery.

Methodology and freshness

All Noom Med pricing and program details were captured from noom.com/med/pricing/ and noom.com/med/glp1-microdose/ on September 4, 2026. PlexusDx pricing was verified September 11, 2026. The 12-month totals and effective monthly costs are our calculations, derived from the published per-month or per-period rates using standard arithmetic. The Noom Med Microdose effective monthly cost assumes the introductory period covers approximately one month; if it covers a shorter period, the effective 12-month cost would be higher. We did not complete Noom Med's eligibility flow, so pricing for branded products, the GLP-1Rx Plus program, or separate medication under the Core Med program is not documented here. Readers should confirm all pricing, product availability, and billing terms at checkout or during intake.
