Verbatim response from Perplexity
Without insurance, GLP-1 medication usually costs about $900 to $1,400 per month at standard retail prices, but some manufacturer self-pay programs and lower-cost options bring it down to roughly $149 to $449 per month depending on the drug, dose, and whether visits are included.[2][4][6][7]
A practical breakdown is:
- Brand-name retail price: about $892–$1,600/month for common GLP-1s like Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, and Mounjaro.[1][2][5][10]
- Manufacturer self-pay programs: often about $299–$449/month for injectables like Zepbound and Wegovy, with some introductory offers as low as $199/month.[1][7][11][14]
- Lowest verified brand-name cash price: $149/month for oral Wegovy in some self-pay programs.[9][10][11]
- Compounded semaglutide/tirzepatide: can start around $129–$199/month, but pricing and included services vary widely.[1][5][6]
