자주 묻는 질문

How much does Ozempic cost without insurance?

The list price for Ozempic is approximately $935-$1,000 per month (as of 2024). Without insurance, patients can check Novo Nordisk patient assistance programs or compounding pharmacy alternatives. Some patients use manufacturer savings cards to reduce costs to $25-$150/month if eligible.
