About Nucore Health

Nucore Health is a physician-owned, LegitScript-certified telehealth platform serving all 50 states, focused on GLP-1 and longevity care: compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide (including a microdose tirzepatide protocol), plus NAD+, sermorelin and MIC B12. Care runs on OpenLoop Health — you pick a treatment, complete a secure medical intake, and a licensed provider reviews eligibility and prescribes if appropriate. It leans into a longevity and performance angle rather than weight loss alone, and its published pricing sits behind the intake quiz.

  • Both semaglutide and tirzepatide available
  • Lowest per-month pricing in the compounded segment
  • 24/7 support team
  • All 50 states covered

Watch-outs

  • Compounded only — no brand-name Ozempic or Wegovy
  • Newer brand with fewer independent reviews than legacy players

Nucore Health

What we like

  • Physician-owned and LegitScript Certified — strong trust signals
  • Available nationwide in all 50 states
  • Care and pharmacy fulfillment run on OpenLoop Health's licensed network
  • Broad menu — compounded GLP-1, microdose tirzepatide, NAD+, sermorelin, MIC B12

Watch-outs

  • Published pricing is gated behind the intake quiz — no upfront cost shown
  • Legal terms and privacy are posted as downloadable documents, not web pages
  • Compounded GLP-1 is not FDA-approved and prescribed off-label (per their own notice)
  • Longevity and microdose positioning is marketing; evidence varies by use
