Anyone know how to get semiglutide or Ozempic or whatever

8. Some info on semiglutide...

There are two levels of the drug semaglutide: One is dosed as Ozempic, for Type 2 diabetes, and Wegovy, which is supposed to be for weigh loss for obesity. Wegovy is usually at a higher dose level than Ozempic.

The cheapest way to get it will be if you have commercial or private insurance. There is a coupon card for Ozempic that will reduce the cost to as little as $25 a month co-pay if you have such insurance. I do not see any discount for either Ozempic or Wegovy outside of such insurance and it won't become a generic until at least 2031, it looks like.

If you do have commercial or private insurance, and you have type 2 diabetes, heart, blood pressure, or cholesterol issues, especially related to obesity or weight, then you may not have much of an issue getting a prescription, and it should cost about $25.00 as a co-pay with/without the discount card.

Those individual shots in a doctor's office are probably compounded versions, which may or may not meet the original drug-maker's or the FDA's specs.
