Semaglutide has more prices than any other weight-loss drug. Novo sells the Wegovy pill direct for $149 to $299 a month by dose, and the Wegovy and Ozempic pens for $199 a month for the first two fills, then $349 to $499. With commercial insurance that covers it, the savings card takes either to $25. Telehealth companies selling compounded semaglutide charge $88 to $349 a month, and the homepage number is often the yearly rate or the first-month rate. Below: Novo’s own prices, then every compounded price we could read on a provider’s own site, dated.

Not printed on the Novo pricing pages we read

The $199 pen price is an introductory rate with a date on it. After the second fill, or after December 31, 2026, the pen is $349 a month at every dose people actually stay on, and Ozempic 2 mg is $499. The pill is cheaper and stays cheaper, but the 4 mg dose already moved from $149 to $199 on September 1. Two telehealth companies resell the branded products and add a membership: Hims & Hers lists the Wegovy pill and Ozempic pill from $149 and the pens from $199, plus a $149 monthly membership; Weight Watchers lists the same products at the same prices plus $74 to $84 a month. Neither publishes a compounded semaglutide price.

Ro publishes no semaglutide price

Ro’s weight-loss membership is $39 the first month, then $74 a month prepaid for a year or $149 month to month. Medication is not included and Ro says its cost depends on your treatment and insurance. No semaglutide figure appears on ro.co that we could read on September 16, 2026.

Prices appear as each provider publishes them. “Not confirmed at checkout” means the figure is on the provider’s site but sits behind an intake we did not complete. Providers can change prices without notice.

On August 12 we checked 65 provider sites and found a semaglutide price on 7. Provider reviews between September 14 and 21 read a price on 13 more. Most sites still route you into a quiz before showing a number.

Who tells you where the medication comes from?

Compounded semaglutide is made by a compounding pharmacy, not the brand manufacturer. That makes the pharmacy one of the first things to check.

Only 10 of the 65 providers we reviewed named the pharmacy on their own site. The rest leave you to ask after you’re already interested, sometimes after intake. It’s the easiest honesty test in this market. Most fail it.

Of the 20 providers in the table, two, Trava Health and R&A Wellness, name their pharmacy.

That doesn’t automatically mean something is wrong. But it does mean you should ask before paying. Ask: which pharmacy fills the prescription, and can I look up its license and inspection history?

What the prices really tell you

The lowest number isn’t always the deal it looks like.

A $99 plan may only cover access to the platform. A $199 plan may include more. A $349 plan may include medication, shipping, and clinician follow-up. The number matters. The details matter more.

Before you compare prices, confirm:

01whether medication is included
02whether the price changes by dose
03whether labs or shipping cost extra
04whether follow-ups are included
05whether cancellation changes the price

A lower advertised price can get expensive once the missing pieces are added.

How Vial confirms a price

01
We check the provider’s own site
No review-site estimates, no third-party price lists.
02
We match the price to the drug
A number counts only when it appears alongside semaglutide on the provider’s own page.
03
We keep the source
Every price shows the date we checked it.

If we can’t confirm it, we leave it out.

One important distinction

Vial doesn’t sell semaglutide or set these prices, and providers can change pricing at any time. Some links on this page pay Vial a referral fee. Referral relationships never determine the prices shown, the Vial Scores, or the order of this list.

Common questions about semaglutide cost

How much does semaglutide cost in 2026?
Three answers. Novo’s self-pay price for the Wegovy pill is $149 to $299 a month by dose; the Wegovy and Ozempic pens are $199 for the first two fills, then $349 to $499. With commercial coverage the savings card takes either to $25. Compounded semaglutide from the 20 telehealth providers with a published price runs $88 to $349 a month, month to month, after any first-month offer ends.
Why do so few providers publish a price?
Some require intake before showing the full cost. Others split membership, consultation, medication, labs, and shipping into separate charges, which makes one advertised number hard to give. We don’t estimate prices we can’t confirm.
Does the cheapest provider always save money?
No. The lowest advertised price may not include medication, shipping, labs, follow-up visits, or higher doses. Ask for the total monthly cost before you enroll.
Should I care which pharmacy fills the prescription?
Yes. With compounded semaglutide, the pharmacy is the product. Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription and whether you can look up its license, accreditation, and public-record history.
Does price affect a Vial Score?
The amount never does. A provider can publish a high price, a low price, or no price at all, and the figure itself won’t move a score. What the score does read is disclosure: providers that publish clearly are easier to check, and checkable is what the score measures.
