Ozempic is a registered trademark of Novo Nordisk A/S. It is a prescription medicine, and no page can quote what it will cost you personally.
Important safety information: Ozempic has a boxed warning about the risk of thyroid C-cell tumors. In rodent studies, semaglutide caused thyroid C-cell tumors, and it is not known whether it causes these tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma, in people. It is contraindicated in people with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma and in people with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2. Serious risks described in the label include inflammation of the pancreas, gallbladder problems, low blood sugar, acute kidney injury, worsening of diabetic eye disease, serious allergic reactions, and problems with food or liquid entering the lungs during anesthesia. Read the complete official Ozempic Prescribing Information and Medication Guide, including the approved uses, boxed warning, contraindications, warnings, and adverse reactions.

What "cash price" actually means
Cash price is what a pharmacy charges a person who is not running the prescription through a health plan. It is sometimes called the self pay price or the out of pocket price. It is a pharmacy number, not a manufacturer number, and it is not the same thing as the list price.
The list price, which the manufacturer sets, is a starting point in a long chain. Wholesalers, pharmacy contracts, rebates, and each pharmacy's own pricing all sit between that figure and the total on your receipt. That is why two pharmacies in the same town can quote different amounts for the same prescription on the same day.
Because these figures move, this page does not publish one. The reliable number is the one a licensed pharmacy gives you for your exact prescription, in your zip code, on the day you ask.
Why the total changes from person to person
The first factor is the prescription itself. Strength and quantity dispensed both change the total. A prescription written for a different amount of medicine is a different price, so compare like for like when you call around.
The second factor is where it is filled. Retail chains, independent pharmacies, grocery pharmacies, and mail order pharmacies each set their own self pay prices. Some honor discount cards and some do not.
The third factor is whether a plan is involved at all. Paying cash and using benefits are two different transactions. If you have coverage but have not met a deductible, the pharmacy may still run the claim, and the amount you owe can look similar to a cash price while still counting toward the plan year. Ask the pharmacy which way the claim was processed before you assume.
Discount cards and savings programs
Discount cards and coupon apps negotiate their own prices with pharmacy networks. They are not insurance. Using one usually means the prescription is not billed to your plan, so the amount you pay may not count toward a deductible or an out of pocket maximum. That tradeoff is worth understanding before you hand the card over.
The manufacturer also runs savings and support resources, described on its own pages for Ozempic savings and resources and at NovoCare. Eligibility rules apply and are set by the manufacturer, not by Body Good. Manufacturer copay offers of this kind commonly exclude people enrolled in federal health care programs such as Medicare and Medicaid, so read the terms on the official page before counting on one.
Patient assistance programs exist separately from copay offers and have their own income and coverage requirements. The manufacturer's site is the accurate source for both, and the terms can change.
Cash price is not the only cost
There are at least two separate charges in a medical weight or metabolic program. One is the clinical care. The other is the medicine.
Body Good's prices are service fees for the program described at intake. They are not the price of medication and they are not a quote for any individual. The cost of medication is separate, is not included in a service fee, and is charged by the dispensing pharmacy. Eligibility is determined by a clinician.
Laboratory work, if a clinician decides it is appropriate, can carry its own charge as well. Before you enroll anywhere, ask what a fee covers, how often it recurs, and whether follow up visits or paperwork trigger another fee. Then ask the pharmacy for the medicine total separately. Adding the two together yourself gives a clearer picture than any single advertised number.
Coverage support, not a coverage promise
Body Good can assist with benefits checks and prior authorization paperwork when appropriate. That is coverage support. The health plan decides coverage and payment under its own terms, and a submitted prior authorization is a request for review, not an approval.
If you want to compare a cash price against what a plan would leave you owing, call the number on your plan card and ask for the formulary status, tier, any clinical criteria, quantity limits, your remaining deductible, and the preferred pharmacy network. Ask the pharmacy to quote both ways. That comparison is specific to you, which is exactly what a published price cannot be.
Buying safely matters more than saving a few dollars
A cash price that looks far below every other quote is a warning sign, not a bargain. Prescription medicine should come only from a state licensed pharmacy, filled against a valid prescription issued by a licensed clinician after a clinical evaluation.
The FDA's BeSafeRx resource explains how to check whether an online seller is licensed and what warning signs to look for. Any site willing to ship without a prescription is not a pharmacy you should use, whatever it charges.

Intake and checkout happen on the separate Body Good site, and completing intake does not guarantee eligibility or a prescription. Start a Body Good clinical evaluation.
Frequently asked questions
Why will not anyone quote me a single cash price?
Because the number depends on the exact prescription, the pharmacy, your location, and the day. A licensed pharmacy quoting your actual prescription is the only accurate source.
Does a discount card work with my insurance?
Generally you use one or the other for a given fill, not both. When a discount card is used, the claim usually does not go through your plan, so the amount may not count toward your deductible. Ask the pharmacist which way it was run.
Is medication included in a Body Good service fee?
No. The service fee covers the clinical program described at intake. Medication cost is separate and is billed by the pharmacy. Other clinically appropriate services may also cost extra.
