A compounded semaglutide injection costs from $69 a month at Embody to $399 at Willow.

What compounded semaglutide costs

Across the sellers we track, compounded semaglutide runs from $69 to $399 a month as an injection and, by mouth, from $99 for a lozenge to $369 for tablets. Every compounded price on this page includes the medication and the clinician's consultation; none is a membership with the drug charged separately.

So the month-to-month figures are what you would pay, lowest first:

SellerPer monthWhat the figure assumes
Embody$69Flat monthly plan
Yucca Health$89
SnagRx$99
Fridays$99Billed monthly on what it calls its annual plan
Strut Health$129
Sprout Health$149Billed every four weeks
Noom Med$149
bmiMD$159
HealthRx$165First month $99
Trimi$175
Gala$179
Bodybuilding.com$179
Belle$199
SHED$199
Pallas Health$199First month $139
Found, with insurance$199
Maximus$249.99
PeterMD$270
Found, cash$289
Direct Meds$297
MEDGm$299
MEDVi$199
Willow$299 to $399Depending on the strength

We hold no month-to-month figure for CoreAge Rx or Oak. CoreAge Rx's only semaglutide figure is $79 per month on a twelve-month plan paid in full, and Oak's is $119; both sit in the prepaid ladder below. The full table, month to month and prepaid side by side with a source and a checked date on each line, is every verified compounded semaglutide price. Prices checked October 26, 2026.

It is not Wegovy, and the price shows it

Every compounded figure on this page, from $69 up, buys the same two things: a preparation made by a compounding pharmacy, and the consultation with the seller's clinician who decides whether to prescribe it. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved and are not evaluated by the FDA for safety, effectiveness or quality. What arrives is not Wegovy.

Wegovy is Novo Nordisk's FDA-approved semaglutide, and the manufacturer's own cash pharmacy prices it without a consultation attached. NovoCare Pharmacy sells the Wegovy pen at $349 a month and Wegovy tablets from $149, with the pill priced by strength up to $299. NovoCare is a pharmacy, not a clinic: it fills a prescription and does not write one. Its eligibility page answers the insurance question before you ask: "Novocare® and NovoCare® Pharmacy operates through licensed pharmacies that dispense product under a cash/self-pay model, and insurance is not accepted."

Sesame lists the Wegovy pill at $149 a month for the lower strengths and $299 for the higher ones, and, unlike NovoCare, a membership billed beside the drug: Success by Sesame at $99 a month or $59 a month on the annual plan. Sesame's own Wegovy page points cash buyers to the manufacturer: "If you don't have insurance coverage, you can get brand-name Wegovy without insurance at a reduced cash price – just ask your Sesame provider to send your prescription to the NovoCare pharmacy." Prices checked October 25, 2026.

Injection, tablet, gum, lozenge: the form changes the price

The form does not move the price in one direction. At Strut Health the oral form is the cheaper one: its buccal lozenge is $99 a month, the injection $129. At MEDGm it is the more expensive one: compounded semaglutide tablets are $369 month to month, or $239 per month on a twelve-month supply billed as $2,868, against $299 for the injection month to month. Willow prices its tablets at $299 a month, the same figure as its injection at strengths up to 3.5 mg. Embody's semaglutide gum is — a month from the second month, — for the first, which puts it above its flat monthly injection plan at $69.

Set the FDA-approved pill beside those figures. NovoCare's Wegovy tablets start at $149 a month, which is below every compounded tablet and gum price we hold; only Strut Health's lozenge comes in under it. On price alone, a compounded tablet or gum is not the cheap route to semaglutide by mouth. Prices checked October 25, 2026.

Take the 1-min quiz

What the advertised compounded semaglutide price assumes

The first thing it assumes is a prepaid term. SnagRx's $69 a month is $828 charged once, Yucca Health's $69 is $828, and CoreAge Rx's $79 is $948. Belle puts the mechanism in one line: "Choose your supply: the longer the plan, the lower your monthly cost." Its billing page says when the money leaves: "Your card is charged in full at checkout, when the order is placed." At Oak, "Multi-month plans are billed either every three months or in full at checkout." Embody is the one seller where the year buys nothing per month: its twelve-month supply is $69 a month, the same figure as its flat monthly plan, so the longer term is a commitment and not a discount.

The rest of the twelve-month ladder, lowest first:

SellerPer month, twelve-month plan
Belle$93
Trimi$99
Sprout Health$99
HealthRx$99
Found, with insurance$99
bmiMD$119
Oak$119
Pallas Health$139
Bodybuilding.com$141.50
SHED$159
MEDGm$169
Found, cash pay$169

What a prepaid term commits you to, and whether the unshipped months come back if you stop, is already set out in the cheapest semaglutide, and what cheapest hides and, seller by seller, in when a compounded order stops being refundable; this page does not repeat it.

A plan called monthly is not always billed by the month. Sprout Health's month-to-month plan, $149, is billed every four weeks. Pallas Health's compounded plan "Renews every 4 weeks until you cancel — cancel anytime". SHED's terms leave it open: "all Medication Programs with Shed are subscription-based programs that renew automatically. Billing may occur either every twenty-eight (28) days or on a monthly basis, depending on your specific program." A plan charged every four weeks is charged thirteen times in a calendar year, not twelve, and a per-month figure understates the year by one charge.

The next is the strength. Many compounded sellers say the figure holds whatever strength the prescriber writes. Belle, bmiMD, Found, PeterMD and Trimi each say so on their own pages; bmiMD's version is "Same price at every dose". Willow is the one exception on file, and its terms say so: "Your Subscription Fee may be increased or decreased if your prescription changes, such as by a dosage increase or frequency of refills, but we will disclose the changed amount and obtain any consent required by applicable law before charging you for the changed Subscription Fee." Its price list bears that out, at $299 a month for the injection at strengths up to 3.5 mg and $399 at 7 mg.

The last is the first month. Pallas Health lists $139 for the first month and $199 after it; MEDGm $179 and then $299; HealthRx $99 and then $165, with the rule written into its refund policy: "An introductory discount applies to the first payment only; the recurring price is disclosed before payment." Embody's one-month product page opens at $79 and renews at $299; the flat monthly plan at $69 sits on another of its pages. Belle's help page states the step most plainly: "If your first order used an introductory or bundle price, your renewal is billed at the standard plan price, which may be higher than what you paid the first time." Terms checked October 26, 2026.

What we would check before paying for compounded semaglutide

Take the figure from the plan you would buy, not from the banner. Find the renewal interval on the checkout page, because every four weeks and once a month are two different bills, and find the recurring price, because the first-month figure is not it. Read where the seller's refund line falls before the intake form goes in; when a compounded order stops being refundable sets it out seller by seller. None of the compounded prices here has a membership billed beside it; if a plan you are offered does, the sellers that bundle the medication with no membership on top is the list to check it against. And know the insurance answer before you start: of the compounded sellers on this page, Found is the only one that prices compounded semaglutide with insurance, at $199 against $289 cash; most of the rest state cash pay on their own pages, and which sellers let a plan pay for the medication has each one's sentence.

Questions people ask

What are the differences between compounded and non-compounded GLP-1 medications?

Four, and all of them on the receipt. Wegovy is FDA-approved; compounded semaglutide is not. Compounded injections run from $69 to $399 a month, while the Wegovy pen is $349 at NovoCare Pharmacy and the Wegovy pill starts at $149. Every compounded price here carries the prescriber's consultation, NovoCare's carries none, and Sesame's pill price sits beside a membership. NovoCare does not accept insurance, the compounded sellers mostly state cash pay, and Sesame's Wegovy page says "If you have health insurance, your plan may cover some or all of the cost of your Wegovy prescription."

Is oral semaglutide cheaper?

Not as a rule. At Strut Health the lozenge is the cheaper form and at MEDGm the tablets are the more expensive one; Willow charges the same for its tablets as for its lower-strength injections, and Embody's gum costs more than its flat monthly injection. The FDA-approved Wegovy pill, at $149 a month from NovoCare Pharmacy, is below every compounded tablet and gum price we hold. Prices checked October 25, 2026.
