Cheapest GLP-1 Programs

Cheap, but not comparable on a monthly basis

These providers charge per visit or work through your benefits rather than selling a monthly package. For the right patient they are the cheapest route available — particularly if you pair a low-cost consultation with a manufacturer-direct pharmacy.

• Blueberry Pediatrics (Blueberry Balance) — $149 membership incl. labs and visits; medication separate
• DevotedDoc — $99 membership; medication billed separately
• Doctronic — $39 per visit; medication billed separately
• Form Health — $299 self-pay program fee, medication extra
• Forum Health — Pricing varies by clinic; $295 initial visit at some locations
• Honest Care — $79 per appeal; free templates. Not a medication provider
• Indigo Health — $99 per visit; medication billed through your pharmacy
• Klinic — $99 initial visit; medication billed separately
• MDLIVE — Access and cost depend on your health plan
• Mobile Care Health — $199 Core Wellness incl. labs; medication priced separately
• Omada Health — No cost to members whose employer or plan covers it
• Push Health — Each provider sets their own fee
• QuickMD — $99 per consultation; medication billed separately
• Sesame — $59 program on an annual plan; medication extra
• SynergenX Health — $100 full evaluation; ongoing medication pricing not published
• TeleSlim Clinic — $99/mo care subscription; medication not stated as included

The cheapest legitimate route to FDA-approved medication

If your priority is getting an FDA-approved GLP-1 for the least money, the cheapest structure is not a subscription at all. It is buying the consultation and the medication separately:

1. Pay once for a prescribing visit — QuickMD charges a flat $99 with no membership, and Indigo Health charges $99 without insurance in Washington state.
2. Fill it through the manufacturer — NovoCare Pharmacy at $149/mo for the Wegovy or Ozempic pill, or LillyDirect at $299/mo for Zepbound.
3. Check your coverage first. If you have commercial insurance that covers GLP-1 medicines, NovoCare's savings offer can bring cost as low as $25/mo for up to three months, and eligible Medicare patients pay $50/mo through the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge program.

If you are insured, Klinic will handle prior authorization on your behalf — the single biggest reason insured patients give up on getting a GLP-1 covered — and if your employer already provides MDLIVE, your copay may be as low as $0. Check that before paying for anything on this page.

Five hidden costs that break these comparisons

Dose-linked pricing

The most common one. A program advertises its 0.25 mg price and raises it at every titration. Citizen Meds runs $145 to $545; Rixa runs $280 to $525. Ask what your target dose costs, not your starting dose.

Non-monthly billing

Citizen Meds bills every 23 days, which is roughly 15.9 charges a year rather than 12 — about a third more than the sticker price implies.

Membership stacked on medication

Ivím ($74.99), Alloy ($99), Lemonaid ($49), Shapely ($49) and Nurx ($79) all charge a care fee separately from the drug. Always add the two together.

Annual commitments

TrimRx's $99 and Fridays' $150 both require prepaying twelve months. Month-to-month at the same providers is $199 and $249 respectively.

Medication excluded entirely

Form Health's $299 covers care only — medication and labs are extra. Klinic, QuickMD, Indigo and Push Health all charge for the visit and leave medication to you.
