A pharmacy counter is one way to pay cash. The other is an online program that bundles the prescription and ships the drug; most of the programs we track sell compounded medication, which is not FDA-approved and is not the brand drug priced above. Every way to pay without insurance.
Paying cash online instead
Cash-pay is the fallback, and it’s the number we re-verify weekly. The cheapest GLP-1 program on our board right now starts at $49/mo, no insurance involved.
