Nu Image Medical review
Four products sit on one page, and the figure that draws the eye is a year bought at once.
The verdict
Nu Image Medical prices four weight-loss products on a single page and labels each as an as-low-as figure. The $99 semaglutide injection carries the words twelve-month supply on its own card, and the tirzepatide injection is $289 rather than the $269 that belongs to the rapid-dissolve tablet beside it.

Nu Image Medical is a telehealth practice that has been selling online since 2008, offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide as weekly injections and as daily rapid-dissolve tablets. A structured nutrition program is sold alongside them. Testosterone, peptides and several other lines share the same catalog.
Who writes the prescription, and what do they see?
A licensed provider determines eligibility before anything is dispensed, which the page states in the same paragraph as its prices rather than in a footer. Beyond that the clinical model is thinly described: no prescriber is named, and nothing sets out what is reviewed, or when a patient next speaks to anyone. Ongoing support is listed as a feature without being defined.
The four products are bought as programs of differing length rather than as a uniform monthly plan, which is why their headline figures are not comparable with one another. The injection sold at the lowest rate is explicitly a year's supply. Shipping is described as discreet, and the practice reports a 4.4 rating across roughly a thousand public reviews.
What happens when the dose goes up?
Nothing on the weight-loss page ties a figure to a milligram, and no dose ladder is published for either molecule or either format. A buyer therefore cannot tell whether an escalation changes the charge, shortens the supply, or neither. That silence matters more here than elsewhere, because the $99 card commits a patient for twelve months before the first step is taken.
What the price includes
The page's own summary sentence is the clearest thing on it: weekly injections from $99 and $289 a month. The $99 is the twelve-month semaglutide commitment and no month-to-month figure for that injection is published anywhere, while $269 and $314 price the semaglutide and tirzepatide tablets rather than a needle. Reading the tablet figure onto the injection understates the injection by $20 a month.
What it claims, and what it cites
Every line on the page is marked as compounded and prescription-only, prepared by a pharmacy rather than manufactured. The hero states that compounded medications are not FDA-approved, which puts the disclosure beside the prices instead of underneath them. No compounding pharmacy is named.
Where it holds up, and where it does not
- Strength: Both an injection and a dissolving tablet are offered
- Strength: The compounded disclosure sits next to the prices
- Strength: A long trading history is stated and dated
- Strength: The summary line names the injection rates directly
- Limitation: The lowest figure is a twelve-month supply
- Limitation: No month-to-month rate is published for the injection
- Limitation: Tablet and injection prices sit side by side without a unit
- Limitation: No milligram dose appears anywhere
What the evidence says about this kind of treatment
The assessment above is about Nu Image Medical. These are about the drugs it sells, and they are traced to the primary literature.
- Right for
- A buyer choosing between a weekly injection and a daily tablet from one practice.
- Wrong for
- A buyer who wants to pay month to month for the injection.

- Is $99 a monthly rate?
- No. That card states a twelve-month supply, and Nu Image publishes no month-to-month figure for the semaglutide injection.
- What does the tirzepatide injection cost?
- $289 a month. The $269 and $314 figures belong to the rapid-dissolve tablets rather than to an injection.
- Are these FDA-approved medications?
- No. Every GLP-1 line here is compounded, and the page says compounded medications are not FDA-approved.
- Is Nu Image Medical expensive compared with other GLP-1 telehealth sellers?
- Nu Image Medical publishes a starting figure of $269/mo. Across the 225 GLP-1 telehealth sellers we review that publish a single monthly figure, those run $76 to $399 with a median of $179, which puts Nu Image Medical above the median. The other 18 GLP-1 telehealth sellers we review quote only after an intake or price by dose, so they are not in that comparison. A starting figure is not a bill — labs, consultations and shipping are often charged separately, so confirm what your own quote includes.
