No doctor? What an online prescription costs

Your own doctor versus Ro or Hims & Hers, and the real monthly total.

Checked October 10, 2026

Every option on this site needs a valid prescription. You can get one from your own doctor or from an online clinic. The clinic's fee comes on top of the medicine.

What online clinics charge

ClinicFirst monthAfter that
Ro$39$149 a month
Hims & Hers$39$149 a month

Ro also offers lower prices if you prepay the membership: $99 a month for 3 months, $89 for 6 months or $74 for 12 months.

The real total

Example: the Wegovy pill at its starting dose ($149) plus a $149 clinic membership comes to about $298 a month.

Your own doctor is usually cheaper

If you already have a doctor, ask them first. You pay your usual visit, then send the prescription to NovoCare or LillyDirect and pay only the medicine.

What to check with any clinic

  • The name of the medicine at checkout: Wegovy, Zepbound or Foundayo. Not just "semaglutide" or "tirzepatide".
  • Whether the medicine price is included or billed separately.
  • How to cancel, and whether prepaid months are refunded.

Since May 2026, Ro's weight-loss menu offers brand-name, FDA-approved GLP-1s only.
