Novo Nordisk to Cut U.S. List Prices for Ozempic, Wegovy by Up to 50%

Novo Nordisk will reduce list prices for Wegovy by 50% and Ozempic by 35% to $675 monthly starting Jan. 1, 2027, aiming to improve insured patients' access.

  • Novo Nordisk announced a cut to U.S. list prices for Ozempic, Rybelsus and Wegovy to $675 for a one-month supply, effective Jan. 1, 2027.
  • On Feb. 23, Novo released head-to-head trial results showing CagriSema produced 23% weight loss over 84 weeks versus 25.5% for tirzepatide, and Novo Nordisk shares fell 16% on Monday.
  • The company says the list-price change targets insurance-based cost-sharing, with Miller stating, `We think this addresses and responds to repeated call for lower list prices...`
  • Cash-Paying customers, however, will largely see no change since Wegovy's list price remains $1,349 and some direct-purchase cash prices were already cut to $349; Novo recently sued telehealth company Hims & Hers, with John Kuckelman, Novo Nordisk group general counsel, warning others.
  • About 7 in 10 people who've taken GLP-1 medications said cost influenced their treatment decisions, and Navitus Health Solutions found 1 in 4 paid more than $250 per fill; Sharon Faust said, `Difficult tradeoffs exist for patients and plan sponsors alike.
