How expensive are GLP-1s again?
- joshgachnang 2mo agoAs low as $69/month through the compounding pharmacies.
- astura 2mo agoWhich pharmacy is that?
- drusepth 2mo ago> GLP-1 receptor agonist medications typically cost between $149 and $350 per month for cash-pay oral pills, and $900 to $1,400+ per month for list-price injectables without insurance.
- tptacek 2mo agoI don't know that anyone really pays list price for injectables, because the vendors do discount programs. Without insurance coverage, tirzepetide via Amazon Pharmacy is something like $450/mo.
- jakevoytko 2mo agoYeah this is what I pay for Zepbound through LillyDirect. I also eat less food and drink less alcohol than I used to. So the net loss is probably smaller, maybe $200/mo
- k12sosse 2mo agoCanada has generic semiglutide for under/around $300/mo depending on pharmacy
- Scoundreller 2mo agoMore like CAD$90 for a 4mg pen
- k12sosse 2mo agoI think you're right I confused wegovy prices with generics. Thank you for clarifying. I'm new to it and will find out about pricing very soon - my provider dropped covering the medication (the day I submitted for pre-approval) -because it worked so well it became popular :P
- oklahomasports 2mo agoI’m just a customer. But Peptaura.com has GLPs 1-3 fr a few dollars a month
- gavinray 2mo agoHow technical do you want to get? The grey-market price from China, is about $100 for 10 x (30mg/mL, 10mL) vials of Tirzepatide. Semaglutide is cheaper. At the highest dose of 15mg/wk, that's 20 weeks for $100.
- zug_zug 2mo agoFor example?
- david-gpu 2mo agoAre you sure that it is not 30mg total per vial, with $100 being the price for 10 vials? Because this stuff comes in powder form, not in liquid form, so mg/mL is an odd unit of measurement. Perhaps I misunderstand your comment.
- nerdsniper 2mo agoIt's 30mg per vial. In addition to that being the going rate for 300mg total...the calculations and final price for 20 weeks match up to 300mg total, not 300mg per vial.
- TehCorwiz 2mo agoI self pay for one from lilly-direct for about $200/mo. Insurance doesn't cover any part of it yet. It required a prescription from my doc and it comes in the mail.
- antinomicus 2mo agoOnly 200$? That’s way less than they charge me!
- qgin 2mo agoDepends on how much assurance you need that you're actually injecting what you think you’re injecting. If you’re okay with just being probably sure, the price is a lot lower.
- antonvs 2mo agoYup, plus my GLP-1 dealer promises that if it kills me, I won’t have to pay. Really no downside.
- dawnerd 2mo agoI’m paying 300/m out of pocket. Really wish my insurance covered it. It’s had a massively positive impact on life.
- mendym 2mo agoHere in Canada, a generic semaglutide injection is $104(CAD) / month
- _kb 2mo agoAU$140 (~US$100) per 4mg, which is approx one month, here. AU$25 (~US$18), or AU$7.70 (~US$5.50) with a concession card if you qualify for subsidy. If you're in Australia it's worth a chat with your GP rather than less regulated channels.
- randycupertino 2mo agoI pay $450 a month out of pocket and that is with a coupon, it used to be $1200 a month. It's worth it to me, it's life-changing. My bp went down from dangerous levels to normal.
