No membership fee is not the same as no other cost: some programs charge per visit or bill a whole plan up front. Each row says its plan length, and the program pages list consultation fees.

How this list is ranked

  • All-in, not advertised. A $149 program with a $74 monthly membership is a $223 program, and it ranks as one. Where a seller has not published a fee we could verify, the row says so rather than assuming zero.
  • Checked weekly.Every price is read from the seller’s own page and dated. The trail on each row shows the shape; the solid section is our own record.
  • Order is price, nothing else. We earn a commission when you buy through these links, and it never changes the order. No seller can pay for position.
  • Only sellers we can verify. Programs we cannot check, or that have stopped taking patients, drop off the list rather than sitting on it stale.

Before you pick a GLP-1 program

The drugsBest GLP-1 for weight lossBy weight lost, the order is settled: tirzepatide (Zepbound) first at 20.2% in the only head-to-head, then semaglutide 7.2 mg (Wegovy HD) at 18.7%, then semaglutide 2.4 mg (Wegovy) at 13.7% to 15.6%, then the pills. By what you pay, the order nearly inverts: compounded semaglutide from $69 a month, the Wegovy tablet from $149, Wegovy pen $349, Zepbound $299 to $699 by dose. The best one is where those two lists meet for your budget and your plan.12 min · checked Sep 3Side effectsGLP-1 and alcoholThere is no blanket instruction on the label saying not to drink on a GLP-1. The specific risk that is well established is low blood sugar, and it applies to people who also take insulin or a sulfonylurea, where alcohol can compound the effect. Beyond that, two things are widely reported and not settled: that alcohol tolerance changes, and that interest in drinking drops. Both are worth mentioning to a prescriber and neither is something a website should turn into advice.5 min · checked Sep 2Side effectsGLP-1 constipation, nausea, diarrheaThe four gut effects are the four most common side effects of every GLP-1, and the labels put numbers on them. On Wegovy 2.4 mg: nausea 44%, diarrhoea 30%, constipation 24%, vomiting 24%, fatigue 11%, against 16%, 16%, 11%, 6% and 5% on placebo. On Zepbound at 15 mg: nausea 28%, diarrhoea 23%, constipation 11%, vomiting 13%, fatigue 7%. They cluster around dose increases, they are the reason 6.8% of Wegovy patients and up to 6.7% of Zepbound patients stopped, and both labels prescribe the same fix: climb slower.10 min · checked Sep 3

Cheapest GLP-1: common questions

What is the cheapest GLP-1 with no membership fee right now?

SnagRx, at $69 a month all in month to month, read off its own site on Oct 2. That is the lowest of 21 sellers we track for GLP-1, ranked on what actually leaves your account, membership fees included.

How much does GLP-1 cost per month?

Across the 21 sellers we verified, the entry price runs from $69 to $299 a month all in, with a median of $149. Entry prices are usually the starting dose; the page lists each seller's term and fee.

Does the price of GLP-1 go up with the dose?

It depends on the seller: some charge the same at every dose and some charge more as you step up. The advertised entry price is usually the lowest dose, so check the price at your dose on the seller's page before you compare.

Is compounded GLP-1 FDA-approved?

No. Compounded GLP-1s are prepared by licensed pharmacies for individual prescriptions and are not FDA-approved products; the FDA does not review them for safety or effectiveness before sale. Brand versions (Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro) are FDA-approved. Each seller page here names the pharmacy we could identify.
