Before you compare “from” prices

These programs prescribe brand-name GLP-1s in two ways. Sesame Care, Brightmeds, ShedRx and Found charge a fee of $99 to $149 a month and you buy the drug separately, often at the manufacturer's self-pay price: LillyDirect Zepbound from $299 a month, NovoCare Wegovy from $149 for the pill and $199 for the pen. Wellorithm, RxSpan MD, Luvo Health and GobyMeds sell the drug inside one cash price, from $899 to $1,695 a month. For Zepbound, the lowest first month is Sesame Care at $398 or Brightmeds at $399 at 2.5 mg; for Wegovy, it is Sesame Care at $248 for the pill or $298 for the pen. Found bills insurance for its own plan fee, and Sesame Care, ShedRx and Found say your plan may cover the drug at the pharmacy.

GobyMeds sells Zepbound and Wegovy pens with the drug in one cash price: $1,399 a month for Zepbound at any dose from 2.5 mg to 15 mg, and $1,695 a month for Wegovy, with the consultation and cold-chain shipping included. That is more than the drug costs from the makers' own self-pay pharmacies, where LillyDirect sells Zepbound from $299 a month and NovoCare the Wegovy pen at $349. GobyMeds does not bill insurance, and its FAQ names Mounjaro and Ozempic but its pages give no price for them.

What you payAmount
Zepbound pens$1,399 a month, 2.5 mg to 15 mg, four pens
Wegovy pens$1,695 a month
IncludedConsultation, follow-ups and cold-chain shipping
FeesNo membership, consultation or shipping fee; $50 may be kept if you cancel after the clinical review
CommitmentOne-time purchase; nothing renews

It’s for you if

  • You want to pay per order, with nothing renewing.
  • You might move to compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide at the same program later.

  • You want insurance to pay.
  • You want Ozempic, Mounjaro or a GLP-1 pill at a published price.
  • You don't want injections, or don't feel comfortable injecting yourself.

Brand-name GLP‑1 programs: what people ask

GobyMeds ranks first of the 8 programs we compared, rated 8.9 / 10, from $1,399 a month. The ranking weighs verified price, pharmacy, FDA enforcement record and state coverage, never commission.

Sesame Care has the lowest verified price in this ranking, at $248 a month. Check what the price includes: a membership or consultation fee can change which program is cheaper over three months. Where a program bills the medication separately, the price shown is its fee plus the maker's own cash price.

6 of the 8 programs here charge no separate membership fee. The rest either charge one or do not disclose it; each write-up states which.

None of the 8 programs here bills insurance. They are cash-pay, so the listed price is what you pay.

4 of the 8 programs ship to all 50 states. The others leave out a few states; each write-up gives the count.
