GLP-1 True-Cost Calculator
The advertised monthly price is rarely what you pay. Intro rates expire, membership fees stack on top, dose escalation raises tiered prices, and 28-day billing quietly adds a 13th charge each year. This calculator models the real first-year cost of every semaglutide and tirzepatide program we track.
Pricing data verified 2026-09-26.
Across 96 tracked plans, the first year of semaglutide ranges from $708 (Wellmedr) to $17,911 (TelyRx) — a $17,203 spread for the same active ingredient. Intro pricing, membership fees, dose-tier increases, and 28-day billing cycles drive most of the difference.

Year 1 totals assume you stay on treatment for a full year at each plan's published ongoing rate (first month at intro pricing where offered), and account for billing frequency — plans billed every 28 days or per 4-week supply charge ~13 times per year. Dose-tiered plans show a range from the lowest to highest published dose price. Prices verified against provider websites; always confirm current pricing with the provider before signing up.
True Cost — Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the year-one total so different from the advertised monthly price?
▾
Four common reasons: intro pricing that expires after the first month, required membership or program fees billed on top of the medication, prices that rise as your dose escalates, and billing on 28-day or 4-week cycles — which means about 13 charges per year instead of 12. This calculator models all four.
Is compounded or branded GLP-1 medication cheaper over a year?
▾
Usually compounded, but the ranges overlap widely. Manufacturer self-pay programs have narrowed the gap, and some branded Wegovy programs now undercut many compounded plans. Use the calculator above to compare first-year totals for the plans we track before assuming.
What does 'flat dose pricing' mean and why does it matter?
▾
GLP-1 doses escalate over your first several months of treatment. Flat-priced plans charge the same regardless of dose; tiered plans charge more at higher doses, so your real monthly cost by month six can be 30–60% above the advertised starting price. Over a year, a flat plan with a higher sticker price often beats a tiered plan with a lower one.
