Compounded semaglutide from FDA-registered 503A pharmacies typically costs 70-85% less while using the same active pharmaceutical ingredient.

FAQ

Why is compounded Semaglutide so much cheaper than Ozempic?

Ozempic and Wegovy are brand-name products from Novo Nordisk priced at $1,300+/mo retail. Compounded semaglutide uses the same active pharmaceutical ingredient prepared by an FDA-registered 503A pharmacy at a fraction of the cost — there's no brand markup, marketing budget, or supply chain layered on top.

Is the cheaper version less effective?

No. The active ingredient is chemically identical. Differences are in formulation (typically with B12 in compounded versions) and packaging. Clinical effect at equivalent doses is the same.

Will my insurance cover Pepti's compounded Semaglutide?

Typically no — compounded medications are usually self-pay. However, if your insurance covers brand-name Wegovy or Ozempic for weight loss, you may prefer that route. Run our free coverage check to find out.
