Medications

semaglutideoral semaglutide

Pros

✓Brand-name Wegovy and Ozempic bought direct from the manufacturer's own pharmacy, so there is no question about what is in the vial or the bottle
✓Published self-pay pricing: $149 per month for the Wegovy or Ozempic pill, and $199 per month for the pen
✓Free home delivery is included, and pharmacy pickup is also offered
✓The alternative to compounded semaglutide at a price that is now genuinely competitive with compounders
✓Patients with insurance may pay as little as $25 per month for up to 3 months under the published savings offer
✓If you do not already have a prescriber, NovoCare will connect you with one
✓Terms are published at WegovyTerms.com and NovoCarePharmacyTerms.com rather than hidden behind a signup flow

Cons

✗The $149 pill price is tied to specific doses: patients pay $149 for each month of 1.5 mg and 4 mg, and the 4 mg offer runs only until 31 August 2026, after which 4 mg is $199 per month
✗Novo Nordisk explicitly reserves the right to modify or cancel the programme at any time, so today's price is not a commitment
✗Eligibility and restrictions apply to the savings offers and are not spelled out on the pharmacy page itself
✗This is a dispensing pharmacy, not a weight-loss programme - there is no coaching, no dietitian and no app
✗Only Novo Nordisk products. If tirzepatide turns out to suit you better, you are in the wrong shop
✗No phone number or support email is published on the pharmacy page
✗The pharmacy operates as CoAssist Pharmacy d/b/a NovoCare Pharmacy, which is not obvious from the branding

Medications

semaglutide

Pros

✓Pricing is published without an intake: compounded semaglutide at $299/month, discounted from a stated $344, and Bella Capsules at $149/month (checked July 28, 2026)
✓Health coaching is bundled with the medication rather than sold as an upsell
✓The site states plainly that the medications are compounded, in the first line of the product description
✓An eligibility check is available before you commit to a plan

Cons

✗A Trustpilot average of 3.0 across roughly 1,000 largely unsolicited reviews is a real warning sign, and among the lowest of any provider on this site
✗The claim of 'up to 20% weight loss within 6 months' for compounded semaglutide does not match the evidence. The STEP-1 trial of branded semaglutide found about 15% over 68 weeks; 20% is closer to the tirzepatide figure, and neither trial studied a compounded product over six months
✗Describing its medication as containing ingredients 'clinically proven to be safe and effective' borrows the approved drug's evidence for a compounded preparation that has not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, efficacy or quality
✗At $299/month for compounded semaglutide, it is among the more expensive compounded options we cover - several providers charge under $200
✗Trustpilot lists the company's location as the United Kingdom, so check service coverage before assuming US availability
✗No published phone number
✗GLP-1 medications are not suitable for anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2, or during pregnancy
