Noom Med semaglutide review

Behaviour change alongside medication. What is actually dispensed, how the prescription works, and what the price really is — $149 a month.

At $79 a month with medication included, Noom’s microdose semaglutide is the lowest figure on this site — and it describes a different treatment from everything it sits beside.

Microdosing uses doses well below those tested in the STEP trials. For someone who found conventional doses intolerable, that is a genuine feature rather than a compromise. For someone expecting roughly 15% body-weight loss, it is not the treatment that produced that number.

What is actually supplied

Real medication at deliberately low doses, paired with biomarker monitoring. The standard Noom Med tier at $149 a month covers conventional dosing if you want the full ladder.

How the prescription works

Well-built behavioural programme with clinical oversight. The medication supports the coaching rather than the reverse.

Behaviour-change app with a clinical arm. Sells a conventional GLP-1 programme and a lower-dose "microdose" programme with medication included.

Reading the price

About $948 a year for the microdose tier, $1,788 for the standard programme.

The $79 microdose tier includes medication but at deliberately low doses.

What we verified

  • Noom Med listed from $149/month.
  • Microdose GLP-1Rx programme listed from $79/month with medication included.
  • Programme pairs low-dose medication with biomarker monitoring and coaching.

Checked 2026-09-18. Pricing here changes frequently; treat anything older than a month as a starting point rather than a quote.

Strengths

  • The coaching is the actual product here and it is well built.
  • Medication is included in the microdose tier rather than billed separately.
  • Straightforward cancellation.

Drawbacks

  • Microdosing is not equivalent to the doses used in the trials people have read about.
  • Full-dose therapy costs the same as competitors without the price advantage.

Important. A $79 microdose programme is not the same treatment as 10 mg tirzepatide. Check the dose before comparing on price.

Our verdict
