How much does compounded semaglutide cost without insurance?
The lowest first-party-verified compounded semaglutide price in our database is Sunlight at $88 per month month-to-month (grade B: shipping terms unknown; consultation terms unknown; maintenance-dose price not published; assumes the starting-dose price holds). The lowest verified true month-to-month price with the maintenance-dose price published is NexLife at $139 per month, every mandatory fee included, same price at every dose, no membership fee (grade A); the same provider's 12-month plan is $119 per month. Third-party reports we have not yet checked against the providers' own pages put Embody at about $69, SnagRx at about $69, TMates at about $158 per month; those rows carry grade D and are never counted as verified. Commitment-plan rates and true month-to-month rates are different purchases and are shown separately.
Why do the brand and compounded figures sit in different tables?
Because they are different regulatory categories, not versions of one product: the brand products are FDA-approved finished drugs and compounded products are not FDA-approved or FDA-reviewed. Prices are comparable as dollars; the products are not presented as interchangeable.
