Verbatim response from Perplexity
Compounded semaglutide typically costs about $150 to $400 per month, while Wegovy is usually about $1,300 to $1,500 per month at list price without insurance.[1][2][4][5]
If you want a simple rule of thumb, compounded semaglutide is often roughly one-quarter to one-tenth the cost of brand-name Wegovy, depending on the provider and dose.[1][2][4][7]
A few pricing nuances matter:
- Some telehealth programs advertise compounded semaglutide at $179 to $299 per month all-in, including medication, supplies, and shipping.[2][6]
- Other providers quote $199 to $399 per month, especially for higher maintenance doses.[5][11]
- Wegovy’s cash-pay or list pricing is much higher than compounded options, but some sources note that specific savings programs can lower out-of-pocket costs for eligible patients.[3][8][5]
If you want, I can also compare compounded semaglutide vs. Ozempic vs. Wegovy side by side, including typical dose-based pricing.
