  2. Rank 2

    Discount card at retail (GoodRx and similar)

    verify locally
    $349/mo
    intro
    offer     GoodRx introductory cash price: first 2 fills at $199/month, then $349. Patients new to GoodRx's semaglutide cash pricing. Covers the 0.25 mg and 0.5 mg starting doses only — every higher dose is the standing $349 from the first fill. GoodRx announced the offer on 2025-11-17 in partnership with Novo Nordisk; this row starts on the day the corpus begins tracking this route's standing price, because an introductory price has nothing to discount before then. GoodRx publishes no end date.

  3. TrumpRx

    reference verify locally
    $199/mo
    • Mirrors the NovoCare intro offer; ongoing price $349
    • Government referral site — does not sell drugs or process payments; issues coupons or routes to manufacturer DTC channels. Every figure it shows is a starting-at price — the site's own column is headed 'Lowest' — so it is a floor for the cheapest dose or intro offer, never a flat price.
