Wegovy Cost Without Insurance
Average retail price: $1,300–$1,650 per month (for the standard 2.4mg maintenance dose)
Where to Find It Cheapest
Best options:
-
Mark Cuban's Cost Plus Drugs (costplusdrugs.com) — Does NOT currently carry branded Wegovy, but worth checking for updates
-
GoodRx — Can reduce costs at pharmacies like Costco, Walmart, or Kroger; prices vary by location but sometimes drops to ~$1,200–$1,300
-
Novo Nordisk's Patient Assistance Program — If you earn under a certain threshold, you may qualify for free or heavily discounted Wegovy directly from the manufacturer
-
Costco Pharmacy — Consistently among the lowest retail prices; worth calling locally
-
Amazon Pharmacy — Competitive pricing, easy price comparison tool
Practical Tips
- Novo Nordisk savings card can bring costs to $0/month for eligible commercially insured patients, or reduce costs for others
- Compounded semaglutide was cheaper (~$200–$500/month) but the FDA has restricted most compounding as of 2025
- Always compare prices at GoodRx.com for your specific zip code
Prices change frequently, so verify current costs directly before purchasing.
