What it is
Nova MD, which also goes by Try Nova MD, sells two compounded weight-loss injections, semaglutide and tirzepatide, each with B12 added and shipped ready to inject, plus sermorelin, NAD+ and glutathione. You answer a short questionnaire, check out, and a clinician from Beluga, a network of U.S.-licensed doctors, meets with you afterward to decide whether to prescribe.
The operator is JM Health Group LLC, doing business as Try Nova MD, at 1001 South Main St, Suite 700, in Kalispell, Montana, and its terms run under Montana law. Those terms say plainly that the company doesn't practice medicine, prescribe or run a pharmacy. Independent licensed pharmacies fill and ship each order, and none of them is named.
Shipping is free and overnight, and orders usually leave the pharmacy a day or two after approval, five at most. Nova MD doesn't say that its clinicians are licensed in your state, and it doesn't list the states it serves.
What it actually costs
Advertised$129
Actually$175/mo
Nova MD advertises $129. A month costs $175 because the advertised rate is the 3-month plan.
The gap
They advertise $129 a month. That is the 3-month plan, $387 on the card today. With no commitment it is $175 a month.
Semaglutide is $175 on the one-month plan or $129 a month on the three-month plan, which bills $387 up front. Tirzepatide is $199 for a month or $149 a month quarterly, $447 at a time. That's the whole ladder. There's no six- or twelve-month option.
The home page's plan cards open on the three-month setting, so $129 and $149 are the first numbers a visitor sees. The one-month price only appears after the toggle is switched.
Each price is billed as one figure covering the consultation, care, medication, supplies, shipping and support, with “No membership fees.” The fine print still carves out a $25 doctor fee: if you back out between the provider's approval and the pharmacy filling the order, you get your money back minus that $25.
Once the pharmacy has filled an order, you can't cancel it unless 10 days pass without it shipping. Nothing that has shipped comes back, and a lost package is replaced rather than refunded. Renewals stop only if you cancel at least 2 days ahead, through the portal. Pausing from the portal stops billing until you unpause.
Who it's wrong for
Reading $129 as the monthly price? It's the quarterly rate. A single month of semaglutide is $175.
Skip it if the pharmacy's identity matters to you. Nova MD says only that independent licensed pharmacies fill orders.
Backing out after approval costs $25 even before anything is filled, and a filled order can't be canceled at all.
Prefer to phone someone when an order goes wrong? There's no number, only an email address answered weekdays from 9am to 6pm Eastern.
Longer commitments aren't sold. Nova MD stops at three months, so $129 and $149 are as low as it goes.

FDA warning letter 716695, issued September 9, 2025, category “Unlawful Sale of Unapproved and Misbranded Drugs to United States Consumers Over the Internet (Telehealth)”. Addressed to “Try Nova”, with the recipient website Nova MD's home page, the name the site itself uses (“Try Nova MD”). FDA writes that it “reviewed your website content at the internet address Nova MD's home page in August 2025”, the same site the prices here come from, and quotes one claim, “Same active ingredient as Wegovy & Ozempic.”, adding: “Compounded drug products are not FDA-approved. Your claim implies that your products are the same as an FDA-approved product when they are not.” FDA's search on the other names screened (“Nova MD”, “trynovamd”, “JM Health Group LLC”, “Beluga”, “Vital Protocol”) returns no other letter to the company, its operator or the clinicians it names. A warning letter discloses; it does not disqualify.
