Prices collected from provider websites in April 2026. Actual costs may vary based on dosage, medication type, and eligibility. † indicates affiliate link.
*Goby Meds: $99/mo is the 12-week starter bundle ($299 total) at the lowest starting dose. Maintenance pricing jumps to $399/mo (0.2-1.0 mg) and $499/mo (1.2-2.3 mg). The starter is a real entry point but the long-term cost is higher than several others on this list.
**NovoCare Pharmacy (Novo Nordisk's direct cash-pay channel for Wegovy and Ozempic): $149/mo for 1.5 mg and 4 mg Wegovy doses; $199/mo intro for 0.25 mg and 0.5 mg (first 2 fills through June 30, 2026); $349/mo standard for 0.25-2.4 mg after intro period; $399-$499/mo for higher doses and Ozempic 2 mg. NOT available to Medicare/Medicaid/VA/TRICARE patients. This is the brand-name cash-pay reality, far below retail list price ($1,000+).
***Big Easy Weight Loss (Louisiana-based telehealth, Dr. Eduardo Randrup): $240-$390/mo depending on formulation, plus a $75 doctor visit fee (refundable if you don't proceed). Compounded GLP-1 from FDA-registered 503(a) and 503(b) pharmacies. Overnight refrigerated shipping. State availability is regional rather than full 50-state — confirm coverage on their site before committing.
****TrumpRx.gov (federal Most-Favored-Nation pricing for branded GLP-1s, launched February 2026 via Trump administration deal with Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly): $199/mo intro for low Wegovy and Ozempic doses, average $350/mo standard. Wegovy pill as low as $149/mo. Medicare beneficiaries pay $245/mo with $50 copay. This is the cheapest brand-name access for most uninsured patients in 2026. Site: trumprx.gov. Sources: White House fact sheet, CBS News, AJMC.
*****Pomegranate Health: $83-100/mo via 3-month bundle ($249-$299 total) through Hallandale Pharmacy. Among the cheapest legitimate cash-pay compounded options we have benchmarked. NOT one of our affiliate partners — included because the data points to them being the actual cost-leader for many patients. Worth comparing against Eden's flat-pricing 3-month plan ($209/mo for any dose) depending on your dose progression.
******Brightly Telehealth PLLC (Washington State residents only): $249/mo flat for compounded semaglutide, $339/mo flat for compounded tirzepatide. Clinician-guided medical weight loss and metabolic therapy via telehealth. Flat pricing means no maintenance dose jumps. Limited to WA state residents — confirm eligibility on their site.

Brand-name vs. compounded: what's the difference?
Brand-name GLP-1 medications like Wegovy (semaglutide) and Zepbound (tirzepatide) are manufactured by Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly respectively. They carry full FDA approval. Retail list price runs $1,000+/mo, but most uninsured patients pay much less through Novo Nordisk's NovoCare Pharmacy direct cash-pay program — $149-$499/mo depending on dose. Eligibility excludes Medicare, Medicaid, VA, and TRICARE patients, who often need to use compounded alternatives.
Compounded versions use the same active ingredients but are prepared by licensed compounding pharmacies. They're significantly cheaper — often $140-300 per month — but are not FDA-evaluated as finished products. The FDA has raised concerns about quality control at some compounding facilities, so it's important to verify your provider uses a licensed 503A or 503B pharmacy.
How to get the lowest price
Your cheapest option depends on your situation. If you have insurance that covers weight-loss medications, providers like Ro Body and Calibrate specialize in navigating insurance approvals — the medication itself could cost as little as your copay. If you're paying out of pocket, compounded options through providers like Found ($129/mo) or Measured Health ($140/mo) offer the lowest all-in monthly costs.
Pay-per-visit models like Walgreens ($49/visit) and Sesame ($89/visit) can work well if you already have a pharmacy relationship or insurance coverage for the medication itself — you're only paying for the consultation.
What to look for beyond price
The cheapest option isn't always the best value. Consider whether the provider includes ongoing medical oversight and dose adjustments, coaching and lifestyle support (which research shows improves outcomes), what happens if the medication doesn't work for you (some offer guarantees), and whether they offer both brand-name and compounded options so you can switch if needed.
