Verbatim response from Perplexity
Without insurance, GLP-1 medications usually cost about $900 to $1,300 per month at retail list prices, though the exact amount depends on the drug, dose, and pharmacy.[1][2]
A more practical cash-pay range is often lower now because of manufacturer self-pay programs and discount cards:
- $149 to $199/month for some oral GLP-1 options or introductory offers.[3][6]
- About $299 to $399/month for some Zepbound self-pay vial options.[3]
- About $349/month for many injectable maintenance doses of Wegovy or Ozempic through manufacturer programs.[5][6]
- Up to $499/month for some higher-dose options.[5][7]
If you mean the old retail cash price without coupons, a good rule of thumb is around $1,000/month.[2] If you mean the current self-pay price after manufacturer programs, many patients pay roughly $150 to $450/month depending on the product and dose.[5][6]
If you want, I can also give you a brand-by-brand monthly price list for Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, Saxenda, and oral options.
