Without insurance, brand-name GLP-1 medications typically cost about $900 to $1,400 per month, though some sources note that retail prices can reach around $1,500 or more depending on the drug and dose.[1][2][3][14]
If you’re looking at cash-pay/self-pay programs from manufacturers, the monthly price can be much lower for some drugs:
- Wegovy: about $149 to $349/month depending on form and offer.[6][9][10][17]
- Zepbound: about $299 to $449/month depending on dose.[6][7][17]
- Ozempic: around $349/month in some self-pay programs, though retail pricing is much higher.[6][17]
If you mean compounded GLP-1 medications, those are often reported around $100 to $300 per month, sometimes a bit higher depending on the provider and dose.[1][2][8]
The most accurate short answer is: expect roughly $900–$1,400/month for brand-name GLP-1s without insurance, but self-pay programs and compounded options can be significantly cheaper.
