NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) publishes no rate for 3-month term, 6-month term, 12-month term. An unpublished term is not necessarily unavailable — it is unpriced in public, which you can only resolve by asking.

A titration year is not twelve months at the maintenance price. Stepping up roughly four weeks per dose before settling at 2.4 mg/week, the first twelve months work out to $4,188 on NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) and $1,548 on bmiMD. The ramp is cheaper than the settled rate on whichever program prices by dose, which is why a first-year quote and a steady-state quote are not the same number.

Value Scores are 37.4 for NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) and 72.7 for bmiMD, against a semaglutide category floor of $87. bmiMD leads by 35.3 points, driven mostly by price.

Where the two programs differ

All-in monthly

bmiMD is cheaper month to month — $129 against $349, a gap of $220 every month, or $2,640 across a year if both rates hold.

Cancellation terms

Cancellation differs: NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) states No subscription lock, while bmiMD states Per provider terms; confirm cancellation policy at enrollment. Read this next to the twelve-month figures — a prepaid discount and a restrictive refund policy are the same decision.

Commitment

NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) asks for None; bmiMD asks for Monthly, 3-month, 6-month, or 12-month plans; price varies by term, not by dose. This is the dimension most likely to change which program is actually cheaper for you, because the lowest rates on both sides are usually attached to the longest terms.

Dose policy

bmiMD charges one price at every dose; NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) prices by dose. That difference usually matters more than the headline gap, because the tiered program's advertised figure describes the dose you start on, not the dose you settle at.

Evidence status

The two prices are not equally well evidenced. NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy)'s figure is verified and bmiMD's is reported. NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) rests on the stronger of the two, and the Value Score below reflects that — evidence quality is worth fifteen points and is not a tiebreaker we apply after the fact.

Twelve-month cost

Over twelve months the totals are $4,188 for NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) and $1,188 for bmiMD. bmiMD is lower by $3,000 — a figure worth checking against the cancellation terms below, because a prepaid year is only cheaper if you stay on it.

Membership fee

Neither charges a separate membership fee.

Shipping

Shipping is handled the same way by both — included in the quoted price.

Which molecules each one carries

NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) carries semaglutide at $349 a month; does not offer tirzepatide.

bmiMD carries tirzepatide at $179 a month and semaglutide at $129 a month.

Comparable only on semaglutide: they do not both publish a rankable tirzepatide price. Switching molecule mid-treatment would mean changing provider.

What neither record tells you

NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) does not publish

  • no published twelve-month semaglutide rate

bmiMD does not publish

  • no named compounding pharmacy
  • no state-by-state availability list — it says Availability at enrollment; confirm your state at intake
  • no specific cancellation or refund terms

Ask NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy) and bmiMD for each of those in writing before enrolling. A gap is not evidence of a problem; it does mean nothing can be checked against it.

What would change this answer

Evidence may be upgraded. bmiMD carries a price we have not captured at checkout. A capture would move the evidence term and could reorder these two without any price changing.

Prepaid terms move the annual figures. bmiMD publishes a twelve-month rate of $99 a month against $129 month-to-month. Read those next to the cancellation terms, not the monthly rate.

Which one suits which reader

On the lower standing monthly rate for semaglutide, bmiMD Official site wins this matchup. If you expect to titrate to the top of the ladder, bmimd's flat pricing is worth more than the headline gap suggests; and if you would rather trust a better-evidenced number, novocare pharmacy (wegovy)'s price rests on stronger provenance.

Both figures should be checked at the provider's own checkout before you pay. NovoCare Pharmacy (Wegovy)'s semaglutide price is verified as of 2026-08-11; bmiMD's is reported as of 2026-07-14.
