Bottom line: Sesame is a cash-pay marketplace with a care plan on top.

Pros
  • A low care fee for a real branded GLP-1 script: $99 a month, billed each month.
  • You can cancel month to month. Only the cheaper rates ask you to commit.
  • Same-day video visits with clinicians on the platform.
Cons
  • Each clinician works independently, so the visit varies with who you pick, and some will not write for a GLP-1.
  • Sesame has no negotiated price on the drug. You pay whatever your pharmacy charges.

Sesame Care's Wegovy pill is $398 a month all in: the $99 membership plus the medication. Checked November 4, 2026. We log every price change on this page.

Verdict

Sesame is a cash-pay marketplace with a care plan on top. Success by Sesame runs $99 a month, billed each month, and its clinicians write to whatever pharmacy you name. You buy the drug on your own and pay for it there. It is a cheap way to a real branded script if you will handle the sourcing and refills yourself.

Best for

People who want a clinician to write the script and will run their own refills, sourcing and dose changes.

What you pay

$398/mo is the cheapest cash route at maintenance: the $99/mo Success by Sesame plan, billed each month, plus the $299/mo NovoCare oral Wegovy pill at that dose. Commit and the plan gets cheaper: $79/mo on 3 months, $69/mo on 6 months and $59/mo for the year, which makes it $358 in total. Starter pill doses are $149/mo, so early months cost less.

Estimated cash price: $398/mo The medication is in that price. That is the $99 membership plus the $299 medication.

Lock-in and how to cancel

The plan is billed each month at $99 and you can cancel it. The cheaper rates buy a commitment: $79/mo on the 3-month plan, $69/mo on the 6-month plan and $59/mo on the annual plan.

How to cancel: Success by Sesame is billed each month at $99 and you can cancel month to month. The $79, $69 and $59 rates need 3, 6 or 12 months. This took the place of the old pay-per-visit model.

Which drugs you can get

Sesame does not dispense medication. Clinicians prescribe to your retail pharmacy of choice; sourcing and pricing happen outside the platform.

About compounded GLP-1 in 2026.

A compounded GLP-1 is made by a licensed compounding pharmacy to a prescription; the FDA does not review it for safety, effectiveness or quality, and its formulation, including the salt form, can differ from the approved drug. Confirm the active ingredient and the pharmacy with the prescriber. What compounded means, in full.

FDA-approved branded

  • Wegovy
  • Zepbound
  • Ozempic
  • Mounjaro
  • Saxenda

Compounded

  • Compounded semaglutide (at cost, Success by Sesame)

Other medications

  • Metformin
  • Phentermine
  • Contrave
  • Qsymia

The drug comparison table covers semaglutide vs tirzepatide on cost, side effects, and clinical evidence side by side.

Frequently asked questions

Is Sesame Care a scam?
No. We found no evidence that Sesame Care is a scam. It is a functioning telehealth program with real medication and a published cancellation policy.
How much does Sesame Care cost per month?
Sesame Care costs $398 a month for the Wegovy pill, as of November 4, 2026. That total is the $99 membership plus the medication.
Is Sesame Care LegitScript certified?
Sesame Care's own site shows a LegitScript certification seal (read Nov 4, 2026). LegitScript lists every certified site on its checker at legitscript.com.
How do I cancel Sesame Care?
Success by Sesame is billed each month at $99 and you can cancel month to month. The $79, $69 and $59 rates need 3, 6 or 12 months. This took the place of the old pay-per-visit model.
Does Sesame include the medication?
No. Sesame sells the care, not the drug. The $99 a month buys the clinician. You take the script to any pharmacy and pay for the drug there, which usually costs more than at a program that fills it for you.
Will any Sesame doctor prescribe Wegovy or Zepbound?
Most clinicians listed under weight loss will, but it is their call. Filter for GLP-1 or weight loss when you book.
Do I need a follow-up?
A refill usually means a new visit. Some clinicians will renew by message for less, so ask at your first visit.
