Quick Answer
To compare GLP-1 quotes, compare your complete recurring total — not the headline price. Add the medication, any membership or platform fee, shipping, and other recurring extras. A plan with no membership fee is not automatically the lowest total, so also check the renewal rate, the supply term, and any prepaid multi-month option. A 28-day supply is not a calendar month. Use your actual quote.
What the 24 Seconds Cover
- A headline price usually covers only part of what you actually pay.
- Add medication, membership or platform fees, shipping, and other recurring extras.
- A “no membership fee” plan is not automatically the lowest total.
- Check the renewal rate, the supply term, and any prepaid multi-month option.
- A 28-day (4-week) supply is not a calendar month — 13 fills a year, not 12.
- Compare using your own quote, not an advertised starting number.

Notes on the Numbers
“Fee-free” describes only one line item — it says nothing about the medication price, which is usually the largest part of your cost. A program with no membership fee can still be more expensive all-in than one that charges a fee, and a discounted introductory month can rise at renewal.
Confirm the supply term. A 28-day (4-week) supply is not the same as a calendar month — 13 fills a year instead of 12 changes your true annual cost. If a provider offers a prepaid multi-month total, treat it as its own separate number rather than assuming it is a simple per-month discount.
