Read our full Fridays review →About NuDay Rx
The GLP-1 catalog is wide. Compounded semaglutide costs $249 and tirzepatide $329, with oral tablets of both, a 'GLP-Squared' combo, and cash prices on brand Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Rybelsus. NuDay Rx sits on the CareValidate/careGLP platform and bolts video coaching and lifestyle support onto the drug. Complete an intake online, consult a licensed doctor, and the prescription arrives at your door. Legal documentation is complete; the compounder is never named and no LegitScript certification is shown.
