Read at NovoCare Wegovy self-pay, August 10, 2026.

Novo Nordisk sells Ozempic through the same self-pay program at different per-dose prices. The NovoCare program page holds our review and its score.

A manufacturer cash price is one route of several. The chart prices every program at the maintenance dose, which is the number that decides what a year costs.

If the maintenance price is more than you can carry, Strut Health is the cheapest cash route on the chart, from $149 a month. That price buys compounded semaglutide, a pharmacy-made version that is not FDA-approved and is not Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound or Mounjaro.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need insurance to use NovoCare self-pay?

No. The self-pay prices are for people paying cash, including people whose insurance copay is higher than the cash price. You still need a prescription.

Is the starter price the price I keep paying?

No. $149 a month is the starter tier. Your price moves with your dose, and the maintenance tiers are in the table above. Price the dose your prescriber expects you to stay on, not the one you start at.

Does NovoCare sell Ozempic on the same terms?

Yes, at its own prices by dose. The NovoCare self-pay pill is $149 a month at 1.5mg, $199 at 4mg and $299 at 9mg. The pen is $199 a month for a new patient's first 2 fills at 0.25mg and 0.5mg through December 31, 2026, then $349 a month at 0.25mg, 0.5mg and 1mg and $499 a month at 2mg.
