Cost comparison

GLP-1 provider cost comparison

Sorted by combined monthly cost — membership plus the lowest medication price each provider publishes. Blank cells mean the provider does not publish that figure, not that it is free.

Read this before comparing

The medication column uses each provider’s lowest published price, which is almost always a compounded product or a starting dose. Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved and are not evaluated by FDA for safety, efficacy or quality. Comparing a compounded price against a branded one is not a like-for-like comparison — see our compounded vs branded guide.

Frequently asked questions

Which GLP-1 provider has the lowest total monthly cost?
On published figures, Mochi Health at $139/month combined — a $79 membership plus $60 compounded semaglutide. Alloy Health is $169/month combined. For branded medication, NovoCare Pharmacy publishes Wegovy tablets at $149/month with no membership fee at all.
Why do some providers show no price?
Because they do not publish one. Henry Meds bundles medication into a single monthly payment but does not state the amount. Ro and Hims & Hers block the automated checks we use to verify prices at source. We leave those blank rather than quoting figures we have not confirmed.
Is the combined monthly cost the price I will actually pay?
It is the floor. It excludes labs where they are billed separately, and it uses each provider's lowest published medication price — which is usually a compounded product or a starting dose. Higher doses and branded products cost more.
Do these prices include labs?
Usually not. Amazon states labs are purchased separately. PlushCare offers discounts rather than including them. LifeMD and Sesame include lab work in their programmes.
