The Bench · Buyer's shortlist · Updated July 2026
The cheapest GLP-1 providers that are actually worth it.
Dozens of telehealths now advertise a rock-bottom GLP-1 price. Most quietly drop a molecule, a batch of states, or their pharmacy verification to hit it. We modeled the real cost of ownership — and ranked the cheap options that hold up.
The short answer
The lowest disclosed sticker on our board is Ondra Health at $93/mo — but cheap sticker and best value aren't the same thing. On the Cost-Efficiency Index, CoreAge Rx leads at 94/100 because its flat, all-50 price has no teaser step-up, so the modeled annual cost is the real cost. Every pick below is scored the same way, and our disclosure never changes the order. Model any provider yourself with the cost calculators.

Cheapest GLP-1, answered
- What is the cheapest GLP-1 provider?
- Ondra Health lists the lowest disclosed monthly semaglutide price we track at $93/mo. But cheapest sticker isn't automatically best value — the lowest-priced programs often trade away nationwide access or pharmacy verification. On our Cost-Efficiency Index, CoreAge Rx ranks #1 at 94/100 because its flat, all-50 price has no teaser step-up.
- Is the cheapest semaglutide the best value?
- Not usually. A $65/mo teaser that serves only 10 states, or a sub-$100 price with no LegitScript verification, can cost you more over a year than a slightly higher flat price that's nationwide and modelable. We rank on normalized cost weighed against access, transparency, formulation and oversight — the real cost of ownership, not the sticker.
- How much does compounded GLP-1 cost per month?
- Among the providers on this board, disclosed compounded semaglutide runs from $93/mo up to the mid-$200s per month. Use our free Monthly Cost Calculator to model any provider's monthly and annual cost, and the Savings Estimator to see the gap vs brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound.
- How does WeighLab rank the cheapest GLP-1 providers?
- Every provider is scored on six measurable factors — normalized cost per month, price transparency, nationwide access, formulation options, clinical oversight and contract flexibility. Rankings are editorial and are never adjusted by whether a provider pays us. See our disclosure and methodology.
Do the math yourself with the free Monthly Cost Calculator and Savings Estimator, see the full Cost-Efficiency Index, or compare any two providers head-to-head.
