How does Noom Med work?

To qualify for Noom Med, you need to meet specific health criteria: a BMI of 30 or higher, or greater than or equal to 27, with a weight-related medical condition, such as high blood pressure, sleep apnea, or high cholesterol. This process ensures that the program is suitable and safe for you. You’ll then go through an intake process that gets you set up with your clinician, who will determine whether your plan should include medication.

Here’s an overview of the Noom Med process:

  1. Take a brief intake survey: Share your health history, weight loss goals, and current medications. Based on this information, you’ll receive a recommended clinical plan.
  2. Connect with an expert clinician: A licensed clinician will review your survey results and, if clinically appropriate, provide a prescription—all online.
  3. Start losing weight with medication and a customized treatment plan: If eligible, you’ll get your medication shipped directly to you. You’ll also have access to Noom’s GLP-1 Companion*, designed to help you achieve sustainable weight loss.
  4. Ongoing care and medication: Stay on course with continuous support from your clinician and access to medication refills as needed and clinically approved.
