Costco Slashes Prices of Weight-Loss Drugs Ozempic and Wegovy
Costco has started offering the weight-loss drugs Ozempic and Tirzepatide (Wegovy) at significantly reduced prices. The move aims to make these medications more accessible to patients in need.
The Danish pharmaceutical company Novo Nordisk produces both Ozempic and Tirzepatide. Costco, the popular membership-only warehouse club, is now marketing these drugs at a lower price. Tirzepatide is primarily prescribed for patients with obesity and heart disease, while Ozempic is used to manage Type 2 diabetes. Both drugs work as appetite suppressants, helping users consume less food and thus lose weight.
At Costco pharmacies, the drugs are available for $499, a substantial discount from their usual price. This reduced cost is set to benefit a wide range of patients. Additionally, some Costco members may qualify for further discounts, making the drugs even more affordable.
Costco's decision to offer Ozempic and Tirzepatide at a lower price is expected to improve access to these weight-loss medications. Patients with obesity, heart disease, and Type 2 diabetes can now consider these treatments more readily, potentially enhancing their health outcomes.
