How much does Wegovy HD (7.2 mg) cost?
$399 per month cash through NovoCare↗ — a $50 step above the $349 standard-dose pens (which carry a $199 two-fill intro for new patients), with the oral pill from $149 below both and, since March 31, 2026, a brand 12-month subscription at $249/month for standard pens via Ro, WeightWatchers, and LifeMD↗. Wegovy HD is semaglutide 7.2 mg, FDA-approved March 19, 2026 for adults who have tolerated 2.4 mg for at least four weeks — an escalation tier, averaging ~20% body-weight reduction in STEP UP. Compounded semaglutide for comparison runs $133–$348/month all-in in this index, but the 7.2 mg trial evidence belongs to the approved product alone.

For orientation: the verified semaglutide field spans $133 (Oak Longevity) to $348 (LifeMD) per month all-in as of 2026-08-09 — a $215 spread for the same molecule, made of structure rather than chemistry — while the brand lane holds $349 at maintenance via Wegovy (NovoCare). Coverage, where a plan grants it, outranks the whole board.
The reading rules behind every number above: figures are all-in (medication plus mandatory fees) at the maintenance dose; prepaid paths are labeled as upfront commitments; stated-not-verified flags mark claims we could not capture on a provider’s own pages; and each record carries its capture date, source link, and archive link so the answer can be checked rather than trusted. Recompute anything here from the public dataset — that reproducibility, not our word, is the warranty.
One structural fact worth carrying out of this page: the spread between the cheapest and most expensive verified way to be on the same molecule now exceeds $4,584 a year — all of it structure (memberships, tiers, wrap) rather than chemistry — while the brand lane keeps cutting underneath (Zepbound vials to $449 in December 2025, the oral pill to $149 in January 2026). In a market moving that fast, the durable skill is not knowing today’s answer but knowing how to re-derive it: all-in basis, maintenance dose, dated capture, recomputable source — the four checks the methodology formalizes.
Basis for every figure: all-in monthly price (medication + mandatory fees) at the maintenance dose, captured from provider pages on the dates in the database. Not medical advice.
