Novo Nordisk to offer some doses of Ozempic, Wegovy for $199 for a limited time

Novo Nordisk is now offering people who pay out of pocket a steep discount for select doses of Ozempic and Wegovy.

GLP-1 weight loss drugs are still far from cheap, but some of the prices keep dropping.

Novo Nordisk is now offering people who pay out of pocket a steep discount for select doses of Ozempic and Wegovy, the company said Monday.

Until the end of March, Novo Nordisk will let people with prescriptions buy the two lowest doses for $199 a month for two months. After that, the drugs will cost $349 a month. The deal will be available through the Ozempic and Wegovy websites, where people can register for the discounts to use at pharmacies and through telehealth.

The $199-per-month offer applies only to the lowest doses, the 0.25 mg and 0.5 mg injections. The $349 deal includes the 1 mg dose of Ozempic and all doses of Wegovy. Ozempic’s maximum dose of 2 mg isn’t part of the deal.

Novo Nordisk executives weren’t available for comment.
