Can you get GLP-1 weight loss medication in New Mexico?
Yes. New Mexico residents can get doctor-prescribed GLP-1 medication through telehealth. Whether New Mexico rules require an in-person visit before a telehealth prescription depends on conditions. See the rule and its source. Through Majesta Health, once we open, a physician licensed in New Mexico reviews your medical assessment online and decides whether treatment is appropriate. Where New Mexico telehealth rules require it, or where the physician decides it is needed, your evaluation includes a phone or video visit before any prescription. If you qualify, compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide is prescribed and shipped discreetly to your New Mexico address from a state-licensed pharmacy. Planned regular ongoing prices start at $299 per 30-day cycle, but enrollment is not open yet. Completing the free assessment joins the waitlist and does not submit a case for physician review. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved as final products, and results may vary.

Why GLP-1 telehealth matters in New Mexico
New Mexico is home to roughly 2.1 million people, and about 31.7% of New Mexico adults have obesity. Whether treatment is appropriate for any individual is a licensed physician's decision.
Whether you live in Albuquerque, Las Cruces, Rio Rancho or anywhere else in New Mexico, you can start with an online medical assessment once we open, and a physician licensed in New Mexico reviews it and decides whether telehealth treatment is right for you.
New Mexico telehealth rules: For physicians, the New Mexico Medical Board treats prescribing without an established physician-patient relationship, including prescribing based solely on an online questionnaire, as unprofessional conduct; its listed exceptions include a face-to-face telehealth encounter by standard videoconferencing with a medical history, informed consent and a medical record, where a physical examination is recorded as appropriate by a practitioner or waived when it would not normally be part of a face-to-face encounter for the specific services (16.10.8.8 NMAC). Whether any medication is appropriate is the treating physician's decision.
Before you start an assessment with any program in New Mexico, check six things.
Who prescribes. Ask for the prescriber's full name and credential, then check the license with the board that issues it. For a physician (M.D. or D.O.) or a physician assistant, use the New Mexico Medical Board's license lookup in the verified facts; for any other credential, ask which New Mexico board issued it.
A physician treating you from outside New Mexico needs a full New Mexico license or the board's telemedicine license (16.10.2 NMAC), with the narrow exceptions in the first question below. For other states, see our guide to which states allow telehealth across state lines.
What to have ready. Have your medical history, current medicines and any recent measurements or results ready, and ask how the program keeps your medical record. To get ready, see how to prepare for your first telehealth visit.
How you will be evaluated. For physicians, the New Mexico Medical Board treats prescribing without an established physician-patient relationship as unprofessional conduct, including prescribing based solely on an online questionnaire (16.10.8.8(L) NMAC). An established relationship means, at minimum, an interactive encounter with a history and a physical or mental status examination sufficient for a diagnosis, informed consent, availability for follow-up and a medical record (16.10.8.7 NMAC).
The rule's exceptions include a face-to-face telehealth encounter by standard videoconferencing, with a medical history, informed consent and a medical record, in which a physical examination is recorded by a practitioner and sent to the physician, or waived when it would not normally be part of an in-person visit for that service. Ask whether your visit will be by video, how follow-up works, and what happens if the physician needs an examination or more information.
Which pharmacy dispenses. Ask which pharmacy will fill and ship the prescription, then look it up in the Board of Pharmacy license look-up in the verified facts. When a prescription arrives, check the prescription label.
What the price covers. Ask what a quoted price includes (the clinician's evaluation, the medication, shipping and follow-up care), when the first charge happens, and how renewal and cancellation work; these questions to ask before paying cover the rest. Majesta's plans, and what each one includes, are in the cost question below, and How it works explains when Majesta charges.
How coverage fits in. Coverage is a separate question from price. New Mexico Medicaid's weight-reduction medications page lists some older weight-loss medications as covered with prior authorization and the GLP-1 medications it names as not covered; the verified facts link that page. For any other plan, ask about the exact medication and the reason it is prescribed. Majesta Health does not bill insurance.

How it works in New Mexico
- 1
Start your 2-minute assessment
A short health questionnaire about your medical history, current medications, and weight loss goals. We screen for the contraindications that matter, including thyroid history, pancreatitis, and gallbladder issues. There is no charge to start the assessment. If you enroll, nothing is charged at checkout: your first month's price is charged only after the physician reviews your file and approves treatment, and it includes a $20 medical consultation fee paid through to the licensed physician. If the physician does not approve treatment, you are not charged.
- 2
A real NM-licensed doctor reviews your file
Not an AI, not a form bot. Once we open, a physician licensed in New Mexico reads your full assessment and decides whether GLP-1 is right for you. Where New Mexico telehealth rules require it, or where the physician decides it is needed, your evaluation includes a phone or video visit before any prescription. If it's not right for you, they'll tell you that, too, honestly.

Your medication ships discreetly to your New Mexico address
Compounded medication is dispensed by a state-licensed pharmacy in plain packaging, covering every New Mexico address, from Albuquerque and Las Cruces to rural ZIP codes, once we open.

Message your doctor anytime
Side effect questions, dose adjustments, food and lifestyle questions, they're all included. The program is designed so you always have the same doctor.
Frequently asked questions about GLP-1 in New Mexico
Does a doctor treating me online need to be licensed in New Mexico?
Yes, for a physician. The New Mexico Medical Board's licensing rule lists a full medical license, an unrestricted license to practice medicine and surgery, and a telemedicine license, a limited medical license that allows a physician located outside New Mexico to practice medicine on patients located in New Mexico (16.10.2.8 NMAC). An applicant for the telemedicine license must hold a full and unrestricted license to practice medicine in another state or territory (16.10.2.11(A) NMAC). The rule notes a narrow exemption for a physician licensed in another state who acts as a consultant to a New Mexico-licensed physician on an irregular or infrequent basis, not more than ten patients a year (16.10.2.11(E) NMAC).
Can I get a prescription in New Mexico by just filling out an online form?
No. Board rule 16.10.8.8(L) NMAC lists prescribing when there is no established physician-patient relationship, "including prescribing over the internet or via other electronic means that is based solely on an on-line questionnaire," as unprofessional or dishonorable conduct. The rule's telehealth exception requires a face-to-face encounter online using standard videoconferencing technology, with a medical history, informed consent, and a medical record generated by the practitioner.
Do I need an in-person physical exam before a telehealth doctor can treat me in New Mexico?
Not necessarily. Under 16.10.8.8(L)(6) NMAC, in a video telehealth encounter the physical examination may either be recorded by a practitioner and communicated to the telehealth physician, or "waived when a physical examination would not normally be part of a typical physical face-to-face encounter with the patient for the specific services being provided." The visit must still include an appropriate history, your informed consent, and a medical record of the encounter.
Can I get GLP-1 medication through telehealth in New Mexico?
Yes. New Mexico residents can be prescribed GLP-1 medications through telehealth where a licensed physician finds treatment appropriate. Through Majesta Health, once we open enrollment, a New Mexico-licensed physician reviews your assessment, and medication is dispensed by a state-licensed compounding pharmacy and shipped discreetly to your home.
How much does GLP-1 cost in New Mexico?

Performance (compounded tirzepatide injection) has a planned regular ongoing price of $439 per 30-day cycle.

Completing the free assessment joins the waitlist and does not submit a case for physician review. First-cycle and waitlist terms are on our pricing page.
Are the doctors licensed in New Mexico?
Every prescription will come from a physician licensed in New Mexico. We work exclusively with US-licensed physicians who hold active credentials with the New Mexico Medical Board.
How fast can I get started in New Mexico?

Is GLP-1 telehealth legal in New Mexico?
For physicians, the New Mexico Medical Board treats prescribing without an established physician-patient relationship, including prescribing based solely on an online questionnaire, as unprofessional conduct; its listed exceptions include a face-to-face telehealth encounter by standard videoconferencing with a medical history, informed consent and a medical record, where a physical examination is recorded as appropriate by a practitioner or waived when it would not normally be part of a face-to-face encounter for the specific services (16.10.8.8 NMAC). Whether any medication is appropriate is the treating physician's decision.
