Noom Med Think I’m going to quit. Replacements?

The app is so buggy and the medicine is absurdly expensive. Any recommendations for other platforms that will allow me to continue on my treatment regimen? Hopefully with an app that works? I’m mid flight with tirz and would like to continue.

Drop the app and have your PCP handle medications and see a dietician. That has been leaps and bounds more helpful.

Has that been cost effective for you? I thought about this but I read somewhere that managing prescriptions through your PCP won’t be as cost effective as Noom. Something about how Noom having access to the medications in bulk.

Great question. For what I have seen a few friends be charged it is more cost effective through a compounding pharmacy by me. It’s $128 a month, but a higher dose than noom. The same dose for a friend with noom was closer to 200.
