The cheapest GLP-1 programs start at $49–$80/month. Walgreens starts at $49/month for program access, Maximus offers compounded semaglutide at $80/month for men, and Livea starts at $69/month with coaching included. The true lowest cost depends on whether you have insurance coverage for brand-name GLP-1s.
Brand-name GLP-1 medications like Wegovy ($1,349/month) and Zepbound ($1,069/month) are expensive without insurance. Compounded versions use the same active ingredient but are made by compounding pharmacies, cutting out brand-name markup — resulting in costs of $80–$350/month.
Price alone does not determine safety. Look for programs using FDA-registered compounding pharmacies (503A or 503B), physician oversight, and clear titration protocols regardless of cost. Some of the most affordable programs on this list use the same quality pharmacies as premium programs.
Yes — some programs like PlushCare and Cleveland Clinic accept insurance for brand-name GLP-1 medications. Coverage varies by insurer and state. A prior authorization process is typically required. Programs with insurance concierge services can help navigate this.
