How much does Ozempic cost with insurance?

Most insurance plans will cover Ozempic if it's prescribed for diabetes treatment, but most insurance, Medicare, and Medicaid plans will not cover Ozempic if it's prescribed for weight loss.

Every insurance plan is unique and may or may not cover Ozempic. The cost of Ozempic with commercial insurance coverage differs according to your plan. Contact your insurance provider for an out-of-pocket cost estimate and specifics about your plan's coverage and prior authorization rules.

Still, there are other ways to get financial and insurance assistance:

• Cost-saving programs from nonprofit organizations or the Novo Nordisk patient assistance program may be available. However, these programs may have eligibility criteria.

• If you have Medicare, you may be able to reduce your coinsurance of Ozempic for diabetes with the Medicare Part D Extra Help program.

• Even if insurance does not cover Ozempic, you can still use a health savings account or flexible spending account to pay for your Ozempic prescription.

• If you require Ozempic for diabetes treatment, you may be eligible to deduct your out-of-pocket costs as part of your tax deductions.

• If you're in a pinch, your healthcare provider may be able to provide you with free samples of Ozempic while you wait for prior authorization from insurance. However, this is not a long-term savings strategy.

Is there a generic of Ozempic?

Ozempic is a trademarked prescription created by Novo Nordisk. The active ingredient in Ozempic is semaglutide, but no generic alternative is available. Generic Ozempic will most likely not be available until Novo Nordisk's patent expiration in 2031.

Generic options help reduce the retail price of prescription medications by generating marketplace competition, and since the active ingredient is the same in brand-name drugs versus generics, generic medications don't require costly testing that brand-name drugs do.

Until a cheaper, generic version of Ozempic is available, you can use a prescription discount card from SingleCare to pay $825.00 for 1, 3ml prefilled 2mg/3ml pen (0.25mg or 0.5mg/dose) multidose pen of brand-name Ozempic.

Is there a cheaper alternative to Ozempic?

Ozempic alternatives with the same ingredient include Wegovy and Rybelsus.

Examples of other Ozempic alternatives in the GLP-1 agonist drug class include Victoza, Trulicity, and Saxenda.

Mounjaro is another alternative to Ozempic that is classified as a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. 

Zepbound has the same active ingredient as Mounjaro—tirzepatide—and is approved for chronic weight management in adults.

All of these alternatives are only available as brand-name drugs. There are no generic alternatives. However, depending on your insurance plan, one or more of these alternatives may be less expensive than Ozempic.

For an affordable weight-loss drug, you may also ask your healthcare provider about generic phentermine.

Always consult your healthcare provider to find out which medication is best for you.
