The scorecard
GoodRx scored on our six published factors. See the methodology.
What we like
- $149/month self-pay for brand-name Foundayo (orforglipron) — matches the lowest cash price at launch, far below typical retail
- $299/month self-pay for Zepbound KwikPen — well under Lilly's typical cash list price
- Honored at 70,000+ US pharmacies — the largest retail redemption network of any GLP-1 channel we cover
- No membership fee — bring your own prescription and present the discount card at the pharmacy counter
- Brand-name FDA-approved medication, not compounded
The caveats
- Requires a valid prescription — GoodRx is a discount card, not a prescriber; you still need a clinician to write the script
- Self-pay only — does not apply toward insurance benefits or deductibles
- Headline price applies to the lowest Foundayo dose; higher doses may cost more
- No compounded GLP-1 options — not the channel for compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide
- Pricing can change as Lilly's manufacturer coupon program evolves
