About Nuvari
How is Nuvari different from other telehealth platforms? ▾
Most telehealth platforms give you a prescription and disappear. Nuvari provides ongoing physician oversight, monthly check-ins, dosage adjustments, and 24/7 provider messaging. Every protocol is physician-directed — not AI-generated — and every medication is compounded by FDA-regulated pharmacies.
Who are the physicians? ▾
Our physicians are board-certified and licensed in your state through the CareValidate physician network. They have experience in peptide therapy, hormone optimization, weight management, and metabolic health. A real physician reviews every assessment — no algorithms writing prescriptions.
Is Nuvari available in my state? ▾
Nuvari ships nationwide across all 50 states. Our physician network includes providers licensed in every state to ensure you receive care from a physician licensed where you live.
Is Nuvari a pharmacy? ▾
No. Nuvari is a telehealth platform that connects you with physicians and pharmacy partners. Your medications are compounded and shipped by licensed compounding pharmacies that we partner with.
Medications
What are compounded medications? ▾
Compounded medications are custom-prepared by licensed US pharmacies using the same active pharmaceutical ingredients found in brand-name drugs. They are tailored to your specific prescription and prepared under strict FDA regulation. Compounding allows for personalized dosing and formulations.
Are compounded medications safe? ▾
Yes. All medications are compounded by FDA-regulated pharmacies that follow Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). Each batch is quality-tested for purity and potency before shipping. Our pharmacy partners maintain rigorous safety and quality standards.
Are compounded medications legal? ▾
Yes. Compounding is a well-established, legal practice regulated by the FDA and state boards of pharmacy. Licensed compounding pharmacies operate under federal pharmacy compounding regulations, which permits the preparation of compounded medications pursuant to valid prescriptions.
What active ingredients are in Nuvari protocols? ▾
Each protocol uses specific active pharmaceutical ingredients. For example,
The Shed Protocol uses compounded semaglutide,
The Drive Protocol uses compounded testosterone, and
The Rewind Protocol uses sermorelin peptide. Your physician selects the appropriate compound and dosage based on your health assessment.
Are these the same as brand-name medications? ▾
Compounded medications use the same active pharmaceutical ingredients as their brand-name counterparts, but they are prepared individually by compounding pharmacies rather than manufactured in bulk by pharmaceutical companies. This allows for personalized dosing and often more accessible pricing.
Process
How do I get started? ▾
Start by
taking our quick online assessment. You'll answer questions about your wellness goals, medical history, and current medications. A board-certified physician reviews your assessment within 24 hours and, if appropriate, prescribes a personalized protocol. Your medication ships to your door within 24-48 hours of approval.
See how the full process works.
How long does the process take? ▾
The assessment takes about 5 minutes. Physician review happens within 24 hours. After approval, your medication ships within 24–48 hours. Most patients receive their order within 5–7 business days from starting their assessment.
Do I need to see a doctor in person? ▾
No. Everything is done online. You complete an assessment, a physician reviews your health history remotely, and your prescription ships to your door. No clinic visits or waiting rooms required.
How does shipping work? ▾
Medications ship directly from our pharmacy partners via standard shipping. Temperature-sensitive medications ship in cold-chain packaging. All packages arrive in plain, discreet packaging with no indication of the contents. Delivery typically takes 3–5 business days.
What if the physician says I'm not a candidate? ▾
If a physician determines that a protocol is not medically appropriate for you, you will not be charged. Your physician may recommend an alternative approach or suggest you follow up with your primary care provider.
How do monthly check-ins work? ▾
Each month, you complete a brief progress update through the patient portal. Your provider reviews your progress, adjusts your dosage if needed, and your refill ships automatically. You can also message your provider anytime with questions or concerns.
Pricing & Membership
How much do protocols cost? ▾
Protocol pricing varies. Monthly subscriptions range from $129 to $449 depending on the protocol. Each subscription includes your medication, physician oversight, monthly check-ins, and ongoing care.

Are there any hidden fees? ▾
No. Your subscription price includes your medication, physician oversight, monthly check-ins, and shipping. There are no consultation fees, no hidden charges, and no cancellation penalties.
