What is the cost of GLP-1 shots for weight loss?

Scroll For More Info

Originally published October 19, 2026. Last updated October 19, 2026.

The cost of GLP-1 shots for weight loss depends on your medication, dose, visit frequency, medical support, dispensing model and insurance reimbursement. Some GLP-1 medications, including Wegovy, are FDA-approved to support weight loss in qualifying adults. These injections are typically given once weekly.

How much do GLP-1 shots cost per month?

At Synergy Wellness, GLP-1 pricing often ranges from $350 to $450 per month and includes medical monitoring and support. Some plans average about $100 per week, while customized plans may fall outside these ranges.

Many patients ask us about GLP-1 prices first, but it’s important to consider the whole picture of your injections, including:

  • Risk: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued warnings advising the public about several dangerous situations, including counterfeit GLP-1 products that can cause serious adverse effects. Buying from a reputable provider protects your health.
  • Clinical support: If you experience side effects or your results change over time, medical support from our team gives you a place to ask questions and adjust your plan.
  • Medical experience: Any injection or medication comes with risks. Having a qualified provider administer your GLP-1 shots can mitigate the risk and can mean someone is monitoring you for complications. At Synergy Wellness, our team is led by a medical doctor and includes physician assistants and registered nurses with decades of combined experience administering injections and caring for patients.

What is included in a medical weight loss program?

We can start with a Synergy Weight Loss Blueprint, which involves a consultation about your needs and lifestyle. We offer a B12 boost and a medical-grade scan to determine your body composition. You’ll receive bonus resources and a customized plan that may include medication recommendations, depending on your health history and provider guidance.

If you determine that GLP-1 shots are right for you, our membership plan includes:

  • Weekly GLP-1 shots administered by trained providers in our welcoming clinic.
  • Weekly weigh-ins and check-ins to track your progress.
  • Customized calorie guidance, based on your goals, body composition and metabolism.
  • Monthly visits with a medical provider to review your progress more in-depth. 
  • Lipo-B shots with vitamin B12 and nutrients to support energy and metabolism.

We do not require a long-term commitment or contracts. 

FAQs

People often ask us:

Does insurance cover GLP-1 weight loss medication?

Synergy Wellness does not accept insurance. Coverage for GLP-1 weight loss medications varies by policy. If you plan to seek reimbursement, contact your insurance provider before starting treatment to confirm whether your plan covers any costs.

Why do GLP-1 prices differ between providers?

GLP-1 prices differ between providers because programs may include different levels of medical monitoring, dosing support, in-clinic visits and medication sourcing.

Does Tirzepatide cost more than other options?

Tirzepatide costs may be similar to other injectable weight loss options, but your monthly price depends on your dose, provider and treatment plan. This medication is sold under brand names like Zepbound.
