Nova
A $99-a-month membership service selling compounded GLP-1s, sermorelin, NAD+ and glutathione, whose product pages each print two different monthly prices.
Review by Leah Garner, clinical-evidence editor · Updated September 2026
The short version
Nova is clear about its structure: one $99 monthly membership, medication billed on top, and no charge unless a clinician prescribes. It is much less clear about the numbers inside that structure. Each product page prints a headline monthly figure and, a few lines lower, a medication price that does not add up to it. The prescribing medical group is never named either.

Nova is a cash-pay telehealth platform run by NovaCure LLC, a Texas company that describes itself as a management and technology company. It sells weight-loss, sexual-health, hair-loss and energy treatments under one Nova Care membership. The peptides on this site's register are compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, as weekly injections and daily under-the-tongue tablets. Alongside them sit sermorelin as an injection and a dissolving tablet, NAD+ in three forms, glutathione, and PT-141.
What Nova prescribes, by goal
Weight
- SemaglutideFDA-approved
- Injection (compounded)From $229/mo
- Sublingual (compounded)From $169/mo
- TirzepatideFDA-approved
- Injection (compounded)From $279/mo
- Sublingual (compounded)From $174/mo
Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are weekly injections, and the pages give the schedule but no starting milligram dose. Each page quotes two prices: semaglutide at $210 in the headline and $229 in its FAQ, tirzepatide at $225 and $279. The daily tablets are dissolved under the tongue, and the semaglutide page names 36 mcg or 145 mcg strengths. Both tablet pages warn that sublingual milligrams are not interchangeable with injected ones.
Sexual health
- PT-141 (bremelanotide)FDA-approved
Listed by the seller; no price we hold.
PT-141 is an as-needed injection taken 30 minutes before sex, sold by the 2 mL or 5 mL bottle. It is not priced here because its headline and its bottle prices cannot both be right. The page also says bremelanotide can support low desire in men as well as women. The approved product, Vyleesi, is labeled only for premenopausal women.
Longevity
- GlutathioneLegal to compound
- Injection (compounded)From $182/mo
- NAD+Legal to compound
- Injection (compounded)From $105/mo$204 a month with the required membership, our total
- Nasal spray (compounded)From $115/mo$214 a month with the required membership, our total
- Sublingual (compounded)From $100/mo$199 a month with the required membership, our total
NAD+ comes as an injection given 0.5 mL two or three times a week, a nasal spray at 50 or 300 mg/mL twice daily, and a 25 mg troche once daily. Each has a monthly price plus three prepaid supplies in its FAQ. Glutathione is a 1 mL intramuscular injection once weekly, with no milligram strength printed. Its headline says $182 a month, while its FAQ prices the medication at $69 before the membership.
Recovery
- SermorelinLegal to compound
- Injection (compounded)From $162/mo
- Sublingual (compounded)From $192/mo
Sermorelin is sold for recovery and sleep as a subcutaneous injection, usually taken before bedtime, with no dose printed. The tablet version is a 0.5 mg troche under the tongue at bedtime, cycled three to six months on and one to two off. The injection page calls sermorelin a safer alternative to synthetic HGH, and cites nothing for that.
Sleep
- SermorelinLegal to compound
- Injection (compounded)From $162/mo
- Sublingual (compounded)From $192/mo
Both sermorelin pages list better sleep among the benefits, and the product copy frames it with phrases such as "as determined by your provider". No sleep study or measurement is cited on either page.
Each “From” figure is the seller’s own starting price, in the unit the seller states. Where a required fee or a package length changes what one month costs, the smaller line under it is our arithmetic, not a figure the seller prints. Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved.
Who prescribes
A licensed clinician
The terms say NovaCure LLC does not practice medicine and that care comes from independent licensed healthcare professionals. In states that require an initial good-faith examination, the terms say it is done by a clinician from an independent third-party medical group. That group is never named. The homepage does name two clinicians: Dr. Micah Craig, an internal medicine physician described as Medical Director who supervises clinical staff, and Priscila Vidal, a nurse practitioner. Neither is presented as the clinician who will review your case. The about page says every prescriber is licensed in your state, and points you to your state medical board or docinfo.org to verify them.
You complete an online health assessment, which the site says takes about five minutes on one page and about ten on another. A provider licensed in your state reviews it, usually within 24 to 48 hours, and prescribes only if treatment is clinically appropriate. The telehealth consent lists secure messaging or video conferencing among the ways care may happen, but no page says a video appointment is part of the intake. After a prescription, the membership covers unlimited secure messaging with the care team, ongoing monitoring, dose adjustments and refills managed for you. No schedule of check-ins is published.
Are labs required?
May be coordinated
No product page asks for bloodwork before a prescription. The telehealth consent says Nova may coordinate laboratory testing, and that lab testing may carry separate charges from the laboratory. No price for it is published.

What it claims, and what it cites
The largest claim sits on the homepage: members reported an average weight loss of 15 to 20% in the first six months on GLP-1 injections. The asterisk says this is based on clinical data, combined with diet and exercise. No study, member count or time period is named, and the chart beside it plots 29.3 pounds with no source. The banner calls the providers board-certified doctors and the medications third-party tested. The homepage bio supports the first for the Medical Director, but a nurse practitioner is also on the care team. No certificate of analysis, batch or laboratory is published for the second. A comparison table prices Nova's membership against Hims at $149 and Ro at $145. The table is dated to publicly available data as of March 2026, and says details may have changed. The pharmacy claim is the most specific. The FAQ says treatments come from licensed, FDA-regulated 503A compounding pharmacies and standard pharmacies, depending on the prescription. No pharmacy is named.

How it bills
Two charges make up every bill: the $99 Nova Care membership, which renews monthly, and the medication your clinician prescribes. Nothing is charged until a provider prescribes, and the site states there is no consultation, shipping or cancellation fee. The trouble is the figure inside that sum. Each product page's headline reads "Starting at" a monthly amount that includes the membership. The FAQ a few lines below prices the medication on its own, and the two rarely agree. For compounded semaglutide the headline says $210 and the FAQ says $229. For the NAD+ nasal spray the headline says $140, while the FAQ's monthly medication price of $115 comes to $214 with the membership. Where the page offers two monthly figures, this site uses the higher one. The membership can be canceled from your account. The terms say cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period and must come at least two days before the renewal date. Membership fees are generally non-refundable once the clinical review is done, even when the clinician declines to prescribe.

Frequently asked questions
- Who actually writes a Nova prescription?
- An independent clinician licensed in your state, according to the terms. In some states a clinician from an unnamed third-party medical group does the first examination. The about page suggests checking your prescriber on your state medical board's site or docinfo.org.
- Is Nova the same company as Nova MD?
- No. Nova is run by NovaCure LLC in Texas from its own website. Nova MD trades from a different site, and it is a separate company with its own review.
- Why does each product show two different prices?
- The headline figure comes from Nova's live price list, while the FAQ below it is fixed text. They disagree on almost every product, and no page says which is current. Check the figure at checkout before paying.
- What happens if the clinician says no?
- The pricing page says your card is not charged unless a prescription is written. The refund policy reads differently: it calls membership fees generally non-refundable once the clinical review is done, even when the provider declines. Ask which applies before you add a card.
