Pricing data as of 2026-10-29.

A low advertised price may not be your ongoing price

This is an INTRODUCTORY price for the two starting doses only, and only for the first two monthly fills. The manufacturer states the offer runs through December 31, 2026, and that patients new to the Wegovy Savings Offer and NovoCare home delivery pay this figure for each month of 0.25 mg and 0.5 mg. After those fills the ongoing price is the standard-doses figure on this pathway. Do not budget the introductory figure as your ongoing cost. One month equals one box of four pens.

This is the ongoing non-introductory price for the 0.25 mg through 2.4 mg strengths. The manufacturer states $349 per month for those strengths and $399 per month for Wegovy HD at 7.2 mg. One month equals one box of four pens.

This is an INTRODUCTORY price. The platform states that new patients pay this figure for the first two monthly fills of the 0.25 mg and 0.5 mg strengths, and that the offer runs only between 11/17/2025 and 12/31/2026. Do not budget it as your ongoing cost.

This applies to: NovoCare Pharmacy, TrumpRx. We have not been able to confirm the ongoing figure against a primary source, which is why no number renders for it here. See what we found and what would confirm it.

How Wegovy is priced by dose

Wegovy is not priced at one flat rate. It is filed in tiers, so the dose you are on changes what you pay:

low doses: 0.25mg, 0.5mg
standard doses: 1mg, 1.7mg, 2.4mg

This is why the tool asks for your dose. A single headline price for Wegovy would be wrong for most of the people reading it.

Eligibility rules that apply to Wegovy

These are the rules our tool applies. Each one either removes a pathway from your results or attaches a condition to it. They are held as data, not as prose, so what you read here is what the tool actually does.

Pathway	Effect	Rule	Verified
Manufacturer savings card	Removes pathway	Manufacturer savings cards exclude anyone enrolled in a federal healthcare program, including Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE and VA coverage. This pathway is not available to you.	Quoted
Manufacturer savings card	Required to qualify	A manufacturer savings card requires commercial insurance. It cannot be used without coverage.	Quoted
Medicare GLP-1 Bridge	Required to qualify	This pathway is available only to Medicare beneficiaries.	Quoted
All pathways	Adds a caveat	Requires a valid prescription from a licensed healthcare provider.	Editorial
NovoCare Pharmacy	Adds a note	Paying cash bypasses your insurance, so what you spend here does not count toward your deductible or your out-of-pocket maximum.	Editorial
Patient assistance program	Adds a note	Patient assistance programs are income-gated and require an application, usually with proof of income and a prescriber's involvement. Approval is not immediate.	Editorial
Patient assistance program	Required to qualify	Patient assistance is limited to applicants below an income threshold.	Quoted
TrumpRx	Adds a caveat	Figures for this pathway were read directly from trumprx.gov on 2026-10-28, so they are no longer hand-curated from an unreachable page. They still carry the date they were read, and prices in this market move without announcement, so check trumprx.gov directly before relying on a price.	Editorial
Medicare GLP-1 Bridge	Removes pathway	Medicare states that you are not eligible for this program if you already get GLP-1 drugs covered through your Medicare Part D plan, or if you have type 2 diabetes, moderate-to-severe sleep apnea, or fatty liver disease. Your Part D plan might cover your GLP-1 instead. Confirm your own position with Medicare.	Quoted
Medicare GLP-1 Bridge	Adds a note	This programme requires a BMI of 35 or higher, or a BMI of 30 or higher with diastolic heart failure, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or chronic kidney disease at stage 3a or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher with prediabetes, a previous heart attack or stroke, or peripheral artery disease with symptoms. It covers Foundayo tablets, Wegovy injection and tablets, and the Zepbound KwikPen specifically rather than Zepbound vials, and it is available nationwide. Read from medicare.gov on 2026-10-28.	Editorial
All pathways	Adds a note	Medicaid GLP-1 coverage is state-by-state. A federal program for 2026 negotiates terms on behalf of state Medicaid agencies, but participation is voluntary and what you pay depends on your own state. There is no national Medicaid price for these medications and this site does not publish one.	Editorial
NovoCare Pharmacy	Adds a note	This cash-pay pharmacy appears to be open to people who have Medicare or other government coverage but choose to pay cash and not use it. That is a different rule from the manufacturer savings card, which bars government-programme beneficiaries outright. We have not confirmed it directly, so verify before you rely on it.	Editorial
Patient assistance program	Adds a note	Patient assistance programmes generally require that you have Medicare or no insurance at all. If you have commercial insurance you are typically not eligible, even if your plan does not cover the medication. Income thresholds also vary by product and we have not confirmed which applies here.	Editorial
