Ozari vs Noom Med: $129 to Start, Then $279 Every Month After

Published August 7, 2026

Noom's own pricing article, last updated July 27, 2026, lists its full-dose GLP-1Rx semaglutide program at $129 for the initial four-week supply. Month two is $279. That first number is the one you'll see in the ads. The second one is the one your card gets charged eleven more times.

What Noom Med Publicly Lists

As of August 2026, Noom's published cost breakdown includes six medication-related tracks:

Noom GLP-1Rx (full-dose compounded semaglutide): $129 for the initial 4-week supply, then $279/month, medication included.
Noom GLP-1Rx Plus (full-dose compounded tirzepatide): $149 to start, then $299/month. Noom notes this option is not available in all states.
Noom Microdose GLP-1Rx (low-dose semaglutide): $49 for the first 4-week supply, then $537 billed every 12 weeks — about $179/month.
Noom Microdose GLP-1Rx Plus (low-dose tirzepatide): $79 to start, then $597 per 12 weeks, about $199/month.
Proactive Health Microdose GLP-1Rx: $149/month on a 4-month subscription.
Telehealth for branded meds: $39 for a 30-day trial, then $99/month — medication not included; branded prescriptions like Wegovy® or Zepbound® get filled through your insurance and pharmacy.

Noom discloses that its compounded semaglutide is produced in an FDA-registered facility but has not been reviewed by the FDA for safety, efficacy, or quality. Noom.com carries a LegitScript certification badge. HSA/FSA payment isn't accepted directly; Noom points users toward reimbursement with a Letter of Medical Necessity. Pricing changed as recently as July 27, 2026, so verify current numbers directly with Noom before signing up.

How the Models Compare

Noom built its reputation on psychology-first weight loss, and that curriculum is genuinely well constructed. The daily lessons, the food-color system, the Muscle Defense workouts — these are real features, and Noom cites internal data that members using its habit program lose more weight on GLP-1s than with medication alone.

The pricing question is separate from the quality question. With Noom Med, the coaching layer and the medication come as one bundle at one price. You cannot unbundle them. If you want compounded semaglutide at full dose, the published ongoing rate is $279/month whether you open the app daily or never.

Ozari takes the opposite position: price the medication and the clinical care, and let patients decide what support they want on top. The evidence on whether bundled coaching justifies a premium is genuinely mixed — we walk through the published research in our coaching cost evidence review.

Noom's Microdose tier deserves a fair mention. At roughly $179/month it undercuts many full-dose competitors, but it is a deliberately lower dose program — a different clinical product, not a discount on the standard one. Whether a microdose protocol fits your goals is a conversation for a licensed provider, not a pricing table.

The 12-Month Math

Ozari's semaglutide path: three starter months, then quarterly pricing.

$257 (starter plan, ~$86/mo)
$145 × 9 = $1,305
Year one: $1,562

Noom GLP-1Rx at published rates:

$129 first month
$279 × 11 = $3,069
Year one: $3,198

Difference: $3,198 − $1,562 = $1,636.

Tirzepatide, same exercise. Ozari: $125 × 3 + $199 × 9 = $375 + $1,791 = $2,166. Noom GLP-1Rx Plus: $149 + ($299 × 11) = $3,438. Difference: $1,272.

The Microdose plan lands closer: $49 + ($179 × 11) = $2,018 for year one — about $456 more than Ozari's full-dose semaglutide program, for a lower-dose product.

A note from our clinical team: Program names are marketing; milligrams are medicine. Patients arriving from tiered products like a "microdose" plan often cannot tell us what they were actually taking. Before you leave any provider, photograph the prescription label — drug, concentration, weekly dose, and last fill date. We build every transfer titration from those four facts, and a patient who shows up holding them almost never has to repeat weeks of ramp-up they already earned.

Red Flags — Avoid These Providers

How to Cancel Noom Med

Noom's cancellation path is self-serve: log into the Subscription Portal at account.noom.com — or use the Noom app — and cancel there. Noom is explicit that uninstalling the app cancels nothing; billing continues until you cancel in the portal. Per Noom's published refund policy as of August 2026, the timing rules for the Med programs are strict: refunds may be available only if a prescription has not yet been written, renewal charges are never refundable, and a canceled subscription stays active until the end of the current billing cycle. The branded-medication telehealth track closes its refund window once a clinical visit has occurred. Noom also offers a downgrade — switching from Noom Med to the cheaper Noom Weight app plan inside the portal — if you want the curriculum without the medication bill. Whichever you choose, request written confirmation through Noom's support chat and screenshot it alongside the portal's cancellation screen. Ozari's cancellation terms are published on its refund policy page: https://www.ozarihealth.com/refund-policy

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Noom Med cost per month in 2026?

Noom has listed its GLP-1Rx semaglutide program at $129 for the first four weeks, then $279/month, medication included. The Microdose version runs about $179/month after a $49 start. Pricing changed in July 2026, so verify current rates directly with Noom.

Does Noom Med include the medication in its price?

The GLP-1Rx and Microdose programs include compounded medication if prescribed. The $39 branded-medication telehealth track does not — Wegovy® or Zepbound® would be billed through your insurance or pharmacy separately.

Is Noom Med's coaching worth the extra cost?

It depends on you. Noom's behavior curriculum is well built, and some patients thrive with it. The published evidence on paid coaching bundles improving GLP-1 outcomes is mixed; our coaching evidence review covers the research.

How much cheaper is Ozari than Noom Med over a year?

At published rates, about $1,636 on semaglutide ($1,562 vs $3,198) and about $1,272 on tirzepatide ($2,166 vs $3,438). Confirm both companies' current pricing before deciding.

Is Noom Med's compounded semaglutide FDA-approved?

No compounded semaglutide is FDA-approved, from any provider. Noom discloses this, as does Ozari. Compounded drugs are prepared by licensed pharmacies for individual prescriptions but skip FDA premarket review.

Does Noom Med take HSA/FSA?

Not directly. Noom suggests requesting a Letter of Medical Necessity and filing for reimbursement. Ozari accepts HSA/FSA payment.

How do I cancel Noom Med?

Cancel in the Subscription Portal at account.noom.com or in the Noom app — deleting the app does not stop billing. Refunds end once a prescription is written, renewal charges are non-refundable, and access continues to the end of the paid cycle.
