Verbatim response from Perplexity
The cheapest legitimate online option in your results appears to be Lemonaid Health’s compounded semaglutide at $199/month for microdoses or $229–$299/month for standard compounded plans, with membership billed separately at $49/month.[7] If you want FDA-approved brand-name medication, the lowest clearly stated price in the results is $149/month through GoodRx Care Direct, Walgreens Weight Management, or LillyDirect/Novo-related offers for select low doses.[3][4][5][7]
A practical way to choose is:
- Lowest total cash price, if compounded medication is acceptable and prescribed: Lemonaid Health at $49/month membership + $199/month compounded semaglutide microdose.[7]
- Lowest brand-name option shown here: $149/month for select GLP-1 products through GoodRx, Walgreens, or LillyDirect/Novo programs.[3][4][5][7]
- Most important safety rule: legitimate online sellers require a prescription; sources in your results explicitly note that legitimate pharmacies do not sell GLP-1s without one.[2]
