Check coverage first
The spread on this drug is not vial versus pen — it is covered versus not. Ten minutes with your insurer decides whether you pay $25 or $499.
The compounded door
Compounded semaglutide floors at $139 a month all-in — a third of the brand's cash price, without the brand. The live table shows who charges what once mandatory fees are counted.

How much is Wegovy without insurance?
$499 a month at any dose through NovoCare Pharmacy, Novo Nordisk's own self-pay channel with direct shipping. The pharmacy list price above $1,300 is the door nobody should use.
Does the Wegovy price change with the dose?
Not on the self-pay path: NovoCare charges the same $499 from 0.25 mg starter pens to the full 2.4 mg maintenance dose.
How much is Wegovy with insurance?
With a commercial plan that covers it, the savings card brings it to as little as $0 to $25 a month. Coverage is the single biggest lever on this drug's price.
Is compounded semaglutide cheaper than Wegovy?
Much cheaper at the floor: verified all-in programs start at $139 a month. It is a pharmacy-compounded product rather than the FDA-approved brand — the semaglutide index shows every program normalized to one number.
